I have seen one of those, but it was in the Twin Ring Motegi Honda museum in Japan.

I will try to dig up the picture and post it on here so you can compare it.

Well send me the $100 then. You already got your answers about your car on 1stgencivic.com.

Here: http://www.1stgencivic.org/world/c1z...er=asc&start=0

Its just a regular USDM 1976 Civic CVCC 5 speed. The GT is just a front grill emblem off of a Toyota Celica.

The air dam, lower console, shifter boot, slats over the font signals, wood trim in the rear hatch, flares and wheels (old Appliance wheels) are aftermarket add ons - not Honda parts.

The overhead console, bumper overriders, roof rack (minus the big lights) were Honda accessories that could be purchased from the dealer for any model.

The houndstooth interior came standard on all CVCC 5 speeds as did the wood steering wheel.

The engine is a stock 1500 CVCC motor.

Hope this helps, again.

PM me and I will send you my PayPal address for you to send me your money

PS - here is your GT grill emblem on the Celica.....you can see how yours is curved....as the emblem is curved to fit the center of the angled grill on the Celica.

this acually turned out exactly how I thought it would, I was 99% sure there was not a gt, I still like the car but with the new pics I see some scary looking rust. I love the flares! If a guy pulled a bunch of the junk off it and droped it down with some decent wheels she would look pimp. I dont think he tryed to pass it off as a gt, I believe he thought it was the real thing and had found a pot of gold, either way you owe somebody $100.00, pay up.

No thats wrong. Color has nothing to do with it. Orange and yellow were just 2 of the other colours one could choose from. The wood wheel, ****, houndstooth...cam with the CVCC 5 speed models.

Here is one of the options charts:

Here is one of the options charts:

Mine is a 79 CVCC with 5 speed, regular vinyl blue interior and the rear pocket speakers and it had AC and rear defrost. It had no wooden anything, no cigarette lighter.
