Honda

OWNERSHIP: This is a 1982 Honda Wagon.  It was bought new by my father in Pasadena CA in 1982.  He drove it from 1982 to 2006.  He then willed it to me and I've driven it daily ever since.  The car is owned free and clear and we hold title.

CONDITONS OF SALE: We are happy to let you preview the car here in Eagle Mountain, UT.  If you bid and win this car it is yours.  The car is being sold as is and the sale is final.  No returns.  Do not bid unless you really want this car. This is a NO RESERVE SALE.

GARAGE:  The car was garaged by my father and I have garaged it since owning it. 

SMOG:  From 1982 to 2012 the car was smogged each year in California.  The last two years it has been smogged in Utah.  A year ago it needed a new catalatic converter to pass smog.  A new one was installed.  This year we added a rebuilt carburetor and had the carburetor professionally adjusted. (I have a receipt)  It is smogged in Utah and if you would like to see the results I am happy to email them to you. 

OIL CHANGES: The car has had its oil changed every three or four months for the life of the car.  We use Valvoline oil.

LOCATION: The vehicle is located in Eagle Mountain, UT, which is just south of Salt Lake City, UT.  

RESPONSIBILITIES:  It is the responsibility of the new owner to arrange for transportation to their home, play all taxes and title and pay for a new smog test to qualify for your state's registration requirements.  You will probably need to adjust the carburetor for your altitude.  

CONDITION:  This Civic is equipped with a 1.5 Liter 4 cylinder engine and a 5-Speed manual transmission. Odometer reads 169,028 miles. It has never been in an accident however my father did scratch the rear driver's side quarter panel a bit while pulling it into the garage.  That was repaired and I doubt anyone could tell there was any damage.  It has all the standard equipment but does not have air conditioning.  The heater works. A radio with a CD player is included. The interior is cloth with some plastic on the seats. The car comes from a smoke free home.   The exterior is silver in color and is showing some signs of wear in places.  Also present are some scratches, minor dings and scuffs.  Please see photos for more detailed description of vehicle and its overall condition.

NEGATIVES:  The car does not run like a modern day luxury vehicle.  It runs like a well kept 33 year old Honda with a carburetor not fuel injection. The latch to the left ash trey on the dash has a broken arm.  It is difficult to get the car to pass smog.  The original fuel pump is still installed but we added a modern day electric fuel pump which is mounted next to the original fuel pump.  There is wear and tear to the drivers seat and a small rip in the drivers door panel.

EXTRAS:  In addition to the car I am including a timing belt, fan belt, workshop manual, original owner's manual, extra front headlight, a can of touch up paint, extra unrebuilt carburetor, and a carburetor rebuilt kit.
