Hello fellow Autoshiters!
Just a quick intro to my 1989 Civic GL with a couple of expertly taken photos in the style of Rembrandt.
Had the cars since, I think, April 2018, garage had it till September (I told them to do it "at their leisure"), where it had tons of welding, which was done to an MoT-worthy, but not cosmetic-worthy, standard (not dark patches near arches). Had carbs rebuilt due a stuck float, naturally it doesn't run quite right. New brakes lines, loads of underside rot cleaned off. Bit of a service. It's certainly driveable but not sure how far I should take it given that I'm reasonably sure the timing belt will be celebrating its 30th birthday in December.
Genuine 48k miles on the clock from new, starts on the button even when parked up for a month. Suppose it's a "daily" but I barely drive it due to not really needing a car at the moment.
Got test till September so hopefully I won't need to spend anything on it till then.
Not sure what else to say about it, it's a bit shabby but very worthy!
Looking forward to perusing the forum and seeing what other shite people have. I just love a rubbish but good car.
Dave
