    I will definitely hold on to mine until I can afford / find something better.

    I have quite a few rust issues on the floor / chassis of the car though, that's not even getting in to the body panel issues it has.

    These old civics had a problem with rust from the get go, now 35 years later its rough!

        Really like that scooter. I have 3 Honda Passport scooters. I've had one of them since I was 12 years old, love them. I'd like to have one of those 50s.

        Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

                I agree. I've always figured you just build the biggest garage you can physically fit on the property, or at least the biggest one allowed by code.

                I'm lucky enough to have plenty of storage. My brothers & I own a large building in our home town that used to be an old Nash-Rambler dealership. It has a showroom, parts room, machine shop, office, 2 bathrooms, hydraulic lift and an old paint booth. The main service bay area is large enough to hold about 20-30 cars and still be able to move them around. The problem is that I live 40 miles away from it! I would much rather have a 4 car garage in my back yard that I could actually use.

                  Yeah, I'll dig some out. My red one (the one I ride the most) looks pretty showroom. My blue one is in the process of getting a big bore engine and my yellow one (my original) is apart and stored in boxes for a day when I'm older and retired and I want to reminisce. lol

                  Edit:
                  Found this one, I think I lost all the others when my hard drive crashed last year. This isn't a very good picture.
