1983 Honda Civic Sedan


I don't think they made many Civic sedans, which makes this one even more rare.

1978 Honda Civic

The lighting here is a bit strange because this was the day of the Great Big Wind-storm.

Another fine Civic, this one a final refinement on the first generation. As far as I can tell this is not a CVCC. Clever flame effect on the tire visible in #3. Love the black steel wheels, which give a sportier feel up against the chrome rims. And a usual, the over all shape and proportion.

1975 Honda Civic

How often do you see a restored Honda? This one has the (I think) rare trunk option instead of the hatchback. A brother of mine had an excellent red hatchback of the same year.

Love the stubby front and rear overhangs allowing the absolute maximum use of available space, while still trying to communicate sportiness with the sloping hood and rear window, bulging fenders. Front turn indicators stand free of the grille. Chromed exterior hinges on the trunk. German utility with a Japanese sensibility.

1990 Honda Civic LX

This old Honda looks to be in great shape, a daily driver. Looks odd as a sedan now -- I keep feeling surprised that the trunk is there. It looks like an afterthought. At the time, this was my favourite generation of Civic. After this year, they went to the bulge-y, ugly shape. In retrospect, the rounded '91-'95 hatchbacks don't look too bad, but so many have been destroyed by guys turning them into street racers.

1982 Honda Civic Hatchback

This seems to be a project car. It has been sitting in this alley for at least two summers. There was a sibling, an older Civic "Wag-O-Van" in the garage, which seems to have departed. Love the patina, the moss, but most of all the honesty of the car. No pretensions, just honest, straightforward transportation. Many had problems with Civics of this generation, but this one seems in excellent shape.

UPDATE Mar 30/2015: Spoke with the owner and discovered I had the year wrong.
