This is a mushy thread, so bear with me.

"Stretch" is running and on the street. I love this car. It's more fun to drive than the wife's 92 civic, and loads more fun than my old 510. the only other vehicle more fun than this to drive was my older brothers 1974 Honda 550 Four Road racer.

It may be a little rough on the edges, but this little guy makes me smile when I park it at work and look back at it.

The drive to work is filled with fast lane changes and accelerations. A blast to drive even if I'm edging towards a speeding ticket. The car just wants to cruise in the 3 to 4 rpm range

It's small, orange, and slightly lowered. Pictures to come soon, just bought a digital camera.

Thanks for listening to me ramble. I'm just so proud.

I hear you 100%
I drove my orange '76 to work every day last summer and all I could do was sit and look at it out the window.
They are a blast to drive around town - like a little racecar or something.
My CRX is fun, but it has none of the character of my little orange bandit.
You hit the emotions right on the head.

Hey Fellows
My wife has a 2000 civic - full body kit A/C 4wheel disc's,15inch alloys etc looks great but guess what I prefer my 74 civic. It's great fun to drive and over the past 27 years I know her so well.
