Hey everyone.  I recently had the opportunity to be come the care taker of a 1979 1200 Civic, Scoot.  Originally I was told Scoot was a CVCC, but found out that it's a 1200 Civic.  A buddy of mine got it a while back.  Unfortunately, my friend passed away a few years ago and his wife had been keeping the car in storage since then.  She decided it needed to go to a good home because she couldn't take on another project.  I picked up Scoot yesterday and brought it home.

My plan is to fix the sheet metal, undo any hack jobs that had been done in the past and take care of anything mechanical.  It may get a swap down the road, but I just want it to be a reliable driver when the weather is nice.

Wow! Scoot is in good shape! I had no idea that was also in the garage with the other car.

That won't happen. It will be restored and left alone, unless I do a k swap in it.

The stickers will probably be removed. I never liked the shocker sticker. It's just not my style.

The historical plate is like an antique plate. That was on the car when I got it. I'm going to be sending it back actually. I registered Scoot today, but didn't get historical plates because I would be limited with how much I could drive. Vehicles with historical plates can only be driven to and from shows/events, not for pleasure.

That's why it has regular plates on it now. I got it registered and insured this morning. I just need to get a new battery for it and Scoot will be road worthy.

Title and registration was a little more than $20.

It only has 50k on it.

I'm surprised with how clean it looks inside.  Someone kept real good care of her.
