Winning bidder will receive this 1979 Honda Civic CVCC. I purchased this car for my 15 year old daughter to restore it for her. She has decided that she wants to have a manual transmission car. The car was a daily driver when I purchased it around 6 months ago. It hasnt been driven much in the last six months. I cleaned it up today and if fired right up and drove well. This car could be a daily driver now or would be a perfect restoration project. It is very mechanically sound. The previous owner went throug the motor completely. It has a new front wiring harness, new coil, new manifold and new carberator. The car is complete with all interior and exterior lights, hor and guages working perfectly. The speedometer does not work, I dont know why, but the guy I bought it from said that the cable just needed to be hooked up. There is no radio. There is no air conditioning. The windows all roll great and the back windows open with perfectly functioning latches.

As a restoration project it will definately need: A new hood, Front Bumper Filler Panel, New mouldings. The windshield has a chip out of the lower passengers side, which I think is repairable. All other glass is perfect. All body panels are in solid condition with the exception of the hood, which like I said needs replaced. It has some rust in the typical place like below the rear glass and below the side glass, which I took pictures of. The interior is in decent shape with the exception on a tear in the drivers seat and a small crack on the passengers dashboard. The floor pans are all solid as a rock and the carpet is in good condition.

This is a rare care. Since I bought mine I have only seen one other on Ebay (which is listed now ironically). I have never found one on Craigslist in Atlanta. Like I said, you can buy this car and drive it today or restore it and have a beautiful classic Honda. If you want to come by my house in McDonough Ga I will be happy to let you look at it and take you for a ride. There is a reserve price, which is exactly what I paid for the car. If you buy the car and are going to have it shipped the shipping company will have to pick it up from my house. Any questions, please let me know and good luck!

WSJ investigation reveals Takata may have hidden testing failures

Wed, Nov 25 2015

We're not sure how much more Takata can get wrong concerning its airbag fiasco. The Wall Street Journal says it reviewed internal documents submitted during litigation that reveal US engineers had concerns about altered test data for at least a decade, from 2000 to 2010. This comes after Taktata's largest customer, Honda, stopped doing business with the company, publicly calling Takata out for "misrepresented and manipulated test data." On top of that, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration hit the Japanese company with an open-ended fine of $70 million. Ford took away its business, as have Toyota and Mazda. The latest recall tall has surpassed 19 million vehicles in the US alone. The in-house memos show US employees complaining among themselves that their Japanese equivalents were burying validation test failures and changing the results of validation tests. Such tests are conducted to show automakers that Takata products met specification, and employees specifically cite Honda as the recipient of those edited or redacted reports. One US engineer wrote that the "prettying up" of data "confounded my engineers," and "has gone beyond all reasonable bounds and now most likely constitutes fraud." The engineer apparently said his team made sure that the products were up to spec by using alternative data. Takata said the issues the Journal article covers don't have anything to do with the exploding airbags, and that in one case the problem with the airbag inflator was resolved, and in another case the problem airbag inflators didn't reach production. Takata admitted to the Journal that there have been past instances of "selective, incomplete or inaccurate data" in customer validation reports and apologized, laying the situation at the feet of employees trying to meet production deadlines.

This is what Honda's new F1 engine will sound like

Fri, 18 Oct 2013

It appears that not even the legendary pairing of McLaren and Honda can produce a 2015-regulation Formula One engine that sounds as good as the current V8s. Much like Mercedes-AMG Petronas, McLaren Honda have released a clip of their turbocharged, 1.6-liter V6 ahead of next season, and well, at least to our ears, it's not the sweetest of singers.
We've reported on concerns that the new engines wouldn't sound "right," after years of the high-revving V8s and V10s. The more we're hearing of these new engines, the more reasonable those worries seem. That said, we'll need to wait until we really hear these cars driven in anger to render a final verdict.
Scroll down to view the official press release from Honda and to hear what the future McLaren Honda will sound like when it hits the grid in 2015. For comparison, we've also included some on-board footage of Jenson Button's McLaren's V8 from last season.

Honda Gear concept explored at Montreal Auto Show

Fri, 18 Jan 2013

Our friends at Autoblog Canada have just come away with a closer look at Honda's surprise Gear Concept at the Montreal Auto Show. The little three-door hatchback is arguably the automaker's first real shot at the North American city car market (the Gear is much smaller than the Fit) and may be an indication that Honda is getting serious about going after Scion on this side of the world after the CR-Z hybrid failed to deliver. Honda says the Gear Concept takes its inspiration from the fixed-gear bicycle scene, and should allow buyers an unprecedented level of customization. Designers also wanted to show that a car can be both fun and practical.
We're all for a compact stylish three door with functional room inside, but given Honda's propensity for draining the personality from its concepts on the way to production (at least the ones that don't look showroom ready), we don't hold much hope for the Gear. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
