good job kid! keep up the good work and interesting content!
Appreciate it!
My first car in 1974 was a 1974 Honda Civic hatchback. 4 speed. White with black interior. I added a center floor console and wood shift knob. I still have the black plastic knob. I also replaced the 12 inch wheels with 13 inch wheels. Had the car 6 years & 60k miles and sold it for what I bought it for. I am surprised to see your 1975 has survived this long!
Hey thanks for the comment! People stop and talk to me all the time telling me they had one back in the day! Pretty popular cars I guess haha. Wish mine was a 4 speed like yours but ya it is in pretty great condition for its age!
My friends mom had one of these, and I remember taking a ride for hours and hours. I remember it never broke down and it never gave any problems.
That Honda Civic is mint. Great little car! Nice video!
Appreciate it CT!
Love videos of old cars. This goes to proof that cars from the past were reliable till the end. Great video
Love it, brings back memories of growing up in the 70s👍
You like old cars too?
I have the facelift model from 1977, last time running in 2000, sleeping in the barn for 21 years now. Greetings from Belgium.
Wow that is awesome! Thanks for the comment! Time to get it out and start driving it👍🏼
wow the snow looks awesome. my son's friend has 1 of these hondas sitting in his grandfather garage. he does not want it and said my son can have it if he wants it. I'm going to Binge watch your videos tonight.
I’ve got many videos on these Honda’s! I’ve owned 3 of them! Fun, simple cars
Love those little Hondas, had one identical to that one back in 84, cept mine was a 4 speed and smoked like a train!!!
I just love that! I had the same Civic with 4 doors in exactly the same colour and the Hondamatic gearbox! In mine, only one oft the two gears worked, but it was a very reliable car and I miss it! Later, I had the Accord Mark I and it was even better. With Michelin Snow tires it was very good in the snow and I never needed chains here in Switzerland! Take care of it, they must be very rare today. I hadn't seen one for a long time!
This car actually had the same problem! First gear did not work! Ended up being a very easy fix I just had to adjust the shift linkage cable. They are getting pretty hard to find especially in this good of condition and no rust! Thanks for sharing about yours, that's awesome!👍
@@Mechanic_kid Oh God, if I had known that before! I changed the automatic transmission fluid and it didn't work, so I drove thousands and thousands of kilometers in second (I know that it at least has a torque converter).
A weak point is the timing belt, which tensioner dismantled in Southern Spain at a time where there was NO Honda dealer in whole Spain! Another problem is the metal bar (part of frame) that is at the front end of the car and that started to rott out. A big plus is the indestructible starter motor who is almost stronger than the engine itself! LOL!
Nice work :) I used to have a Generation 2, '79 model. Great little car those old Civics.
I had a 79 white car with air conditioning
Really jealous of the wood wheel.
Haha it makes it! I need to refinish it though one of these days. Stay tuned for a video on that👍🏼
Honda engine is super reliable and I heard and saw on documentary channel that 40 years old Honda can start easily without facing any big issues, I'm Honda fan man 😍💞👉
Very true! extremely reliable little cars!
We’re getting cold here in Texas lol good luck with that snow ha
What a beauty!
Awesome what a time capsule!!!!!
cool bro

Love this video..! I'm in the UK and had a 76 P reg civic 1.2 auto, hondamatic in 1992, wish i had kept it.....still looking for another if anyone knows of one for sale..! There are so few left in the UK now....
Thanks Rob! They are fun cars
Steering wheel is huge :P
Just subscribed. Looks like you have cool content. My first cat was a 1975 Honda Civic. It had a stick shift and it was brown. Got it from my Aunt/Uncle. They’d had it since it was new. Wish I still had it.
Welcome to the channel Nathan! This was my first car also. Bought it when I was 16, and going to try to not make the same mistake of selling haha
@@Mechanic_kid That’s good. I had a 79 Cadillac Seville and sold it for $500 and a 1984 El Camino that I regret selling too! I corrected the problem almost 4 years ago when I bought a 77 Seville!
Great video! Is that a new camera? The video looks smooth :-). Honestly I’m such a fan of these little Civics. Great cars
GoPro

Backwards donuts in a FWD are Best!

Messed up the drift scene with the music. I rather hear the car trying to push
YOUR TIMMINGS 4 DEGREES TO HIGH.... THATS WHY IT PREDETONATES AND WONT REV ALL THE WAY DOING 55
sweet ride! i thought this looked familiar! i watch this guy all the time and he did a video about it here czcams.com/video/sePvBv9McBs/video.html
Yes, the previous owner always took it to MPH Specialties!
Funny... I never saw an automatic Civic. I though they where too cheap and weak to have a auto trans.
Haha well it’s a semi auto (gotta push it into second at 15mph) haha
