Hi im selling this beautiful rare color 1978 honda civic,no rust, no holes, straight body, no major dents, few minor scratches on paint. The paint isnt perfect or anything, paint peeling in spots here and there, nothing major.Runs and drives awesome. Speedo stopped working its hooked up but it broke on the back of the cluster recently. Just had the valves adjusted today, oil change today, spark plugs changed today, and clutch and brakes bleed today. 

The car has a slight grind if you shift into 3rd real fast, i notice if i double shift it like it should and go more into gear towards fifth it doesnt grind as often. It drives fine as is, but i just wanted to point that out. Gauges all work except for speedo. It has early recaro blue seats, has a rip on driver side from getting in and out, im sure you can recover them, passenger side is pretty good! no radio, it has back speakers, but i just used my bluetooth speaker to play music. It has an aftermarket old school honda steering wheel, not sure of brand, but it looks cool.

13" wheels with good tires still. It has an aftermarket coil, fuel pump, and other than that, its basically all stock and original. These things used to get 40 mpg, im not 100% what it gets now, but its good. This car gets alot of love from honda guys, its a 1st gen civic, so these will always have some sort of value to honda guys and car enthusiasts. This is a running and driving car! you can come fly in and drive it home. i wouldnt be afraid to drive this thing all across the country right now.

It's not a show car, although its in very good shape for the year, itd be hard pressed to find another one in this good of shape around here unless you want to pay big bucks for it, you just dont see them very often and they are becoming more rare to find in good condition.

any questions, feel free to call me 9712396989

also i can make a video of this running and driving if you want, feel free to text me and ill make you a video or take any pics you want.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.

Honda Super Cub first vehicle to receive 3D trademark in Japan

Tue, 03 Jun 2014

The term "iconic" gets thrown around a lot, but if there was ever a design worthy of the honorific, surely it's the Honda Super Cub. That's not just our opinion, though: it's the official word from the Japanese Patent Office, which has recognized the classic scooter's shape with a three-dimensional trademark.
The category was introduced in Japan back in 1997 to immortalize distinctive designs, and is subject to very strict criteria. In fact, this marks the first time it has been applied to a vehicle - and one of the few industrial products to be awarded the recognition.
Little wonder it was applied to this little wonder, too. With over 87 million units made since its introduction in 1958, Honda claims the Super Cub to be "the world's largest selling vehicle," with production taking place at 15 factories in 14 countries and sales in 160 markets around the world.
