Rep Power: 0 Its got 42,000 miles on it and all original parts except for some gaskets filters plugs and some tie rods and few other minor stuff! Its actually my father in laws car! but i have been doing what little restoration work it needed! Its kinda weird working on my civic for a couple days then work on the shelby! The civics got such a cramped engine bay with the 1.7 in it, and the shelbys got lots o' room with a 428 in it! i love the car man! The hard thing about the car is keeping it in a straight line when stomping on the accelorator! i will be showing the civic and the stang this year! dont get me wrong i love my civic! BUT there is no replacement for displacement!Dakota

Rep Power: 419 Shawing! Nice. You're right, there is no replacement for displacement. My civic is a starting point for me. I'm really into cars now, so I'll probably do a ground up project car after I'm through with my civic. Props man, that thing looks like it's taken care of.
