Hey there,

Ted, apology accepted.

Update on car. It will be getting:

--a new fuel pump (supposedly new in the box) from eBay, (thank gods it wasn't the carburetor again)
--radiator rebuilt by specialist shop
--new fan belt

And I saved a chunk of change over my usual shop by going to The H Shop (www.thehshop.com) in Kirkland WA. The main guy there, Todd, has done me right on a couple of big jobs so far. The whole shop seems to be Honda specialist; they even do Honda motorcycles.

So, when I'm financially in a position to move to another vehicle, it will have just that many more 'perks' going for it.

Butlerea, Sorry about that. I appologize for any problems my post may have caused. I emailed Richard to ask that he pull my post.

Hey Ted,

Thanks for setting it up so my address can be harvested by spam bots. There was a reason I did it like that.

thanks, but don't apologize. It's not your fault that spammers are out there.

I'M THINKING OF SELLING MY '79 CIVIC THAT I'VE HAD SINCE '97; I'M THE 2nd OWNER. I'VE LOVED THIS CAR AND RIGHT NOW I'M TRYING TO GAUGE INTEREST BEFORE I PUT IT ON EBAY. I KNOW THIS MAY SOUND WEIRD BUT, WITH THE MONEY PROBLEMS AND STRESS I'VE HAD, I NEED TO GET A CAR THAT I DON'T ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT! PRELIMINARY INFO:

-130K, Japanese crate engine installed at 97K
-1200 engine, no frills
-will come with original engine taken out at 97k, ready for rebuild
-no under-hood mods whatsoever
-4 speed
-blue inside and out
-clean interior, almost 'immaculate' given age
-"DynaMat" meticulously applied the entire inside of car 'pan', except for doors and more dynamat material for you to complete project (photos of project as proof!)
-has had two major body repairs since my ownership, done by a *very good* shop that did top notch work attempting to preserve all original parts whereever possible
-paintjob looks bad, very minimal rust
-garaged just as much as I possibly could
-*not* driven on salted roads (not done on WA)
-currently anticipating some serious work under the hood - which is why I snapped and decided to put this up here - fuel pump, radiator rebuild & flush, fan belt replacement, few other things
-would come with FULL repair history while it was in my ownership
-other odds and ends as I have them

Please email me at: butlerea AT u DOT washington DOT edu (sound it out!)
