I found a 1979 here in Toledo at a junkyard (King of the Road Auto Parts) the other day. Clean as crap and started right up and drove after I dropped in a battery I found. The junkyard wouldn't sell me the whole car I wanted this car badly but because they won't let me have it, I want someone too. I'm sure finding parts off of these are hard so if you guys want me to, I'll pull whatever you need (except motor & trans) because I go there on a weekly basis anyway for civic stuff. You'd pay cost, shipping, and a lil for my time. Everything's there except the shift **** and radiator.







I figured this isn't exactly a for sale post and only meant for "Classic Hondas" browsers. If I'm wrong, I apologize.

 

sic find why wouldnt they let you buy it?

 

I don't know. They said "Once a car gets here, it has to stay here". I'm going to assume that they want to nickel and dime it but little do they know, this is probably the only one like it in the tri-state area and it will probably end up getting crushed due to lack of interest. I know they have a title for it because they couldn't take it in without one.

 

i would go in there and offer them like 300 cash and be like i want it. thats dumb they wanna part it out. like i said thats a good find and would be so butiful restored. you should keep pushing them to sell it, let me know what happens

 

I have an 81. Looks just like that. Except red... It's a shame that car runs and drives and they won't let it go. Sounds to me like they're too lazy to do the paperwork or don't really have a title for it.

Looks like it was either de-vacuumed by someone or it's got a Weber carb swap done on it. The vacuum hose nest is gone.

 

they probably submitted the title to the state and declared it as a "parts car to be scrapped". offer them $300 to strip it, and take as much as you can.
