|
|
| Does anyone know if the parts from a 1200 civic hatchback will work on a civic with the trunk because mine has some nasty dents in the front quarter panel and hood. also i never see any of the trunk versions on here are they rarer than the hatchbacks? |

Depends on the years of the 1200s. I believe the fenders are the same from 1973-1979, but the hoods are different over the years. But yes, most of the parts are the same between the trunk and the hatchback.
The trunk models do seem to be a bit more rare than the hatchbacks. There are a few members that have the trunks, myself included. I currently have 2, but neither is running right now.  |

| Your rear glass and trim is different between the models as well as rear seats... just that kind of thing. Otherwise they are pretty closely related. |

| Slightly off topic, but one thing ive found with 1200's is the the front stainless hood trim fits all hoods regardless of year |
