	Hi Folks Thought id post a proper ad for this now as it needs to go so I can fund my new project (more of that when I get my new camera and a few more ideas/answers sorted) As most people know this it has been offered to most as a swap at one point or another No Tax 12 Months MOT So the details: 1979 1st Gen Civic 1335cc 5 Speed Manual(still says 1238cc auto on the log book) 45k on the clock (engine was on 60k when I did the change over so probably 65-70k now) Original colour apart from drivers side wing (glass fibre replacement as original was rotten) and the bottom of car (see pics) 4 Legal 155/80/R12 tyres (only about £20 each if you need to change them) High compression head 2" exhaust from the down pipe back, not too loud Interior nice no rips or stains Original radio (one speaker only) picks up AM/MW frequencies Was running 17 second 1/4 miles at retro show last year and should be quicker now I have the high compression head on it And now for the pictures: and here are some of the links if I have done that bit wrong lol i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg166/m_rust/Phoenix/civicnonumberplate.jpg i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg166/m_rust/Phoenix/civicnorearnumberplate.jpg i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg166/m_rust/Phoenix/IMG_6081.jpg i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg166/m_rust/Phoenix/IMG_6082.jpg i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg166/m_rust/Phoenix/IMG_6084.jpg THe price is high as I know you folks barter down as we all do but make me an offer (apart from a 1st gen swap as I already have 2 others) Cheers Rusty

	Hi Rusty quick question: - how rusty is the Civic? - is the upgraded parts original Honda and for a Civic mk1 of that period? Was thinking of using it for "Classic Racing" and/or Endurance & reliability rally... Its just a stupid thought as all the Saab V4´s and Alfa GTV are WAY to expensive... /// Lanng

	civic is not too rusty to be honest, the up graded parts are basically the 1335 triumph acclaim engine which is the same as the mk2 civic 1335 engine on twin carbs

	cairyhunt - it does roughly 30-35 will do about 150 miles on £20 but all depends on how heavy your right foot is, i have found it reliable, Hull is about 160 miles from where i live
