Default 1982 honda wagon horsepower

Hello. Came across a 1982 Honda wagon with a 5 speed and was wondering what their rated HP was. Seems like it would make a cool daily driver and swap patient, But im a fat *** and wondering how horrible this thing will be pulling a grade .

Quick Google search pulled up the following:

1300: 55bhp
1500: 67bhp

The cars themselves are light, so it will still probably do just fine pulling your fat *** up a hill.

The wagon came with the 1.5 litre cvcc which is rated at 67 bhp. I have an 83 hatch with the same engine and i have no trouble at all even with 2 or 3 people in the car.

Sweet you should pick it up! You can always add another 20hp by swapping in an 82 Accord engine, toss on a big Weber and a header, maybe get 90-95hp out of it. Should make it a fun little wagon! I've always wanted a wagon!
