Picture of my Classic Honda collection
Hey all,
I posted pics some time back of my Honda Coupe 9s. I thought I would share a pic of my garage now, with my two latest additions.
1# First Gen Civic coupe. 1600cc CVCC Accord 4 cyl powered.
The interior is still in plastic on the doors, fairly neat original paint and the best bit....it already has a JDM CVCC Accord 1600cc motor in it. This is the car I will develop into my race car for serious hillclimb events.
2# 1972 Honda N360 (Scamp here in Australia) Air cooled 360cc 2 cyl powered.
Pretty much all original. Was fully restored by an old guy about 10 years ago and has covered about 300kms since then. It's quite nice to drive and surprisingly fast once you get going! This car will be maily used in more leisurley events and shows.
3# 1972 Honda Coupe 9s. 1300cc Air cooled 4 cyl powered.
All original Coupe 9s. I have uploaded pics here before. It's about to go into a ground up restoration. Runs a 1300cc dry sump Air cooled engine all aluminium. Has Quad carb induction and makes over 120HP. My favorite Honda of all time, it sounds like a small F1 car once it gets going. An interesting fact-the JDM only H145 Coupe variant of this was the first Honda passenger car to feature fuel injection.
I have found a Z360 here for sale too at a very reasonable $2000.00 AUD but my garage is full now.......and I can't save every Honda I guess!
I tried to get an S800 Coupe here too, but like most "S" cars, they have fast appreciated in price and are getting beyond reach now.
Hope you like my collection.
James.

Can you please send me a 1300 Coupe 9? Those are so badass! I've got 2 N600s I'm going to begin working on this summer, so hopefully my garage will look like yours soon! Except with 2 Accords, and 2 N600s! Not quite as classic as yours though! Very sweet!
Oh yes, and MORE PICS!!!!

Re: Picture of my Classic Honda collection (2ndGenGuy)
More pics soon no problem. It's strange, we had both N360 and N600 here in Australia but you rarely see an N600. I had a Honda Life, Z360 Hardtop and even a TN360 or TN500 truck at the wreckers when I was younger. They are getting rare here too now for sure.
I wonder, do the N600 come with a dual carb in the USA?

HOLY CRAP 1300 9s!!!!
It is also far and away my favorite Honda of all time, and possibly my favorite vehicle of all time.
They are fully road-legal here now due to age, and thus it's only a matter of time until I lay my mits on one.
I demand dozens of high-resolution photos for us unfortunate slobs who don't own one.
WOW

Re: Picture of my Classic Honda collection (JMSBND)
UPDATE: The Civic is about to be sold, too many cars means something had to go. I have decided to limit myself to pre Civic vintage Hondas. I did however manage to get myself a car for more spirited competition racing....................A GENUINE JDM 1987 1ST GENERATION ZC POWERED CRX!
And my other car, since i needed a Honda as a daily beater.........
I have found another "BARN FIND" Honda N360 in a wrecker too. I hope to pick it up next month. It was on display in their old showroom for 10 years, now it's parked alongside another N360 and a Z in dry storage in an old warehouse..........beside a T500 truck too!
