Old Skool Love

"Our staff photographer, Henry DeKuyper, recently returned from his trip to the Seattle and Vancouver areas. He came back with some great content from a bunch of locals as well as a couple of cars from A&J Racing, but we were especially stoked over this collection of mint-condition, vintage Honda Civics that he shot. You may have seen a couple of these at one of the SoCal-based Japanese Classic Car Shows over the last few years as these guys have been known to make the trek south for that. Simply put, these things are unbelievable. You think it costs a lot to restore your ’89 hatchback? Think again. Imagine trying to restore something more than a decade older than that. Many of these parts are no longer available from the dealer, which makes the outcome even more spectacular."

Those are some sick Honda Civics. I love the yellow hatchback and the red wagon upfront.

Once again, you're a great asset to the Honda world.
Great cars, great pics, and congrats on another magazine shoot.

Saw that drop-top rig a few years ago... the trailer is made from the ass-end of a matching Civic. Very cool!

thats not so bad, but I bet it can go wayy up from there and parts are impossible to find!

They're so cute! They look like matchbox toys. One of the owners of the shop I work at hast a chopped 79 hatch rusting out back that he hopes to finish this year. I never liked those cars until I saw one modded. Definitely a unique look. The ones pictured look to be in great shape. Good work!

Pretz 01-28-2009 06:01 AM

always loved your wagon, and loving the red hatch now!

Cman333 01-28-2009 04:38 PM

k20a 01-29-2009 07:19 PM

omg, that's awesome. I like the baby blue looking one with the darker wheels.

Any pictures of the engine bay?

Great68 01-29-2009 07:27 PM

My mom had a 74 Civic, she bought brand new back in the day.

It was supposed to be my first car when I got old enough to drive, but she gave it to my cousin on a sort of loan because he needed a car for something.

He ended up selling it, and buying a 80's something Golf.

Fuck I was so mad.

792ENV, every time I see your cars I think of that car and what could have been. I probably would never have been into classic Mustangs...

TypeERRR 01-31-2009 10:34 AM

Those are sum sick lookin civics man! Glad to see your gettin good responses from magazines about your cars. A friend of mine lives up the street from you,and i gotta slow down everytime i pass to see which new cars you have out front. Keep up the good work! Don't let those old civics die out!
