1978 Honda Accord Description

We'd love to see it go to a good home with someone who appreciates funky old cars. Fun to drive, blast from the past classic. Starts right up and runs well. Body panels are straight and without accident damage. Some small dimples in the drivers front. See photos. Paint is in good condition except fading on the roof and rust spots at some panel edges. Interior is in very good, nearly new condition except for driver seat which is worn and torn. Engine was rebuilt at 162k miles. Now has 171k miles. Have both original owners manual and official Honda shop manual. Transmission slips in first gearbut can be fixedand the parts are still available.
2-speed semiautomatic transmission (original Hondamatic, no clutch, just let up on the accelerator and shift)We've put quite a few new items on the car to freshen it up and keep it running well.
