Tyler, can you post of pic of the car...not sure I have seen one before.
It is a 1976 Honda Civic CVCC Wagon original urine yellow. 4 speed. I have replaced nearly every mechanical component on her but I don't want to give her up. She has only 67,000 miles on her!!! Runs great but smog is becoming a PITA.

BTW - I didn't get squat done to the truck...but I did shovel rock, mulch, and remove six 8 ft rail road ties from my yard. Damn previous owners!

Re: What did you get done?

i have completely installed the front end components(tie rods ball joints etc.) all new moog stuff from top to bottom. this is on my new swb frame that i have to swop due to frame twisted and then the steering box broke off. spring were a pita but i concored them by modifying the sring tool a little bit (ssssshhhhoooooo the package said not to do it, it also said not to use air tools on them also ooooppppppppsssssss anyway its done now i can start stripping the original truck to mount the old truck body on a new frame there is still a lot of work ahead of me because i am very picky about what i do to my truck i also helped lay commercial carpet in a bank saturday and sunday made some good change in my pocket to spend on the truck other than that i slept (not much) BTW the new hooptie would look really good next to my truck if it bothers you that much

Re: What did you get done?

On Sat. I became a married man!!! We had our civil wedding that day. I will try to get some pics. on the computer to post up for you guys.
On Sun. I personally introduced my two loves to each other. (My wife and my '83 ) She liked it and was pretty supportive as to my ideas of what I want to do to her. Hopefully it was not just becasue we had been only married for 24hrs, but that she actually meant it, lol.

You were supposed to introduce them BEFORE you got married! You know, just in case they don't get along...

Congratulations!

Re: What did you get done?

Managed to get my computer to crash and it is now at the doctors. My daughter was trying to download something and I do believe it got one of them stupid bugs. Will not get back till maby Friday. I am now on someones elses computer. Nothing on the trucks. Have not been on her for a few days and when I did get on thoght I was on the wrong board. It has really changed. but I do like it. Computer down! I hate it when that happens. (

Re: What did you get done?

I got the 350 in & running for my son's truck. Set out a few feeders by their deer food plots for them. After today I'm off the next 4 days so I'll try to get his seals & carpet put in.
