1976 Honda Civic Station Wagon from North America - Comments

Since I've had it I have replaced a battery terminal, radiator, the turn signal flasher canister, and a rear driver's brake cylinder.

I also have had to clean and adjust all three jets in the carb and the gas pedal linkage, I'm about to do a CV joint.

I've had it for a month and it is a very good little car, with a little more love and small adjustment it will be very reliable. I'm 16 and this is my first street legal car and I would recommend it to anyone, it has been really inexpensive, I paid $5 for it and have invested $35 in parts. I've driven it a lot and it is also very inexpensive to run.

P.S.

It also does really well off-roading too, even though the yellow doesn't let the dirt show up as well as I would like it to!!!!!

I also am sixteen and own a 1976 Honda civic c.v.c.c. 1500cc, but it is not a station wagon. I Would like to say that with very little money these cars can rock. I Know that yellow isn't the best color that these cars could be painted, but it makes it look like a big M@M. Thanks.

I see this car won't be around much longer.

Yep, the 1976 Honda is a honey. My mom loved her CVCC and called her the "Ladybug." She even had my dad paint it a deep orange, and was looking for him to add the black spots (which he didn't). Of course, now the orange is a "hot" color!

Sadly, Mom is no longer able to drive it, so it sits.

Can't really see just letting it go for "$5," since it has a newly-rebuilt engine, etc., but I hope to find someone who will love it as much as she did, kinda like these young ladies do theirs!

And the gas mileage MUST be better than an SUV! ; D.

OK I'll pay you $10 for "Ladybug". Reply here.

I had a yellow 1976 Honda Civic back in 1987 when I was 16 as my first car. It was a great car, and at that time had 135,000 miles on it. I sold it for the same amount I paid for it at that time, $650, to a local guy and I saw it around town every now and then. What a car. Now I own a 1996 Honda Accord with 174,000 miles on it. It will probably run forever too.
