Looks pretty darn good for a 46 year old car.

Park your FGF and drive a classic that gets great gas mileage.

Wow, an airbag in a '67 Honda! Those guys really were ahead of their time!

What a dope!


I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.
I feel like I am diagonally parked in a parallel universe.

The first time I saw a Honda emblem on a car was in the late 60's. It was a little thing (can't really recall what it looked like) parked on the side of the road in a college town. I wondered if it was real or an emblem from one of their motor bikes pasted on it.

I've had a nearly equal share of US(Pontiac, Ford, Chevrolet)/Japanese(Honda, Toyota, Nissan)/European cars(Renault, Fiat, Audi). The two oldest have been the '68 Firebird currently undergoing restoration and a '73 Camaro(oh, wait, should that be Camero?). The Firebird will always be my favorite...

Evidently your 74 was faster than the 73 Corolla I had for a first car(pretty sure it was a 73). 1200 CC engine, 4 speed, 65 mph top end!.

It's not what you drive, it's how you drive it!
