The a/c was a dealer option too, and I remember when I took the a/c junk out of my car looking at the wiring and thinking "did a third grader do this?"

Since Honda sold these cars at suck a low margin (I think $2500 out the door in '79, about half what the Camaro cost), dealers really made their money with the options. Usually decals. Every other one I've seen around here has the Honda stripes on the rockers, or some '70's graphics in booger green and baby shit yellow.
Hey man, I know what you mean about the A/C. I took all mine out and WTF? You know I actually have the .esp file of the exact stickers that went from the top of the rear quarter window and rolls down under it and across the middle/side of the car? Heheh. Was only made for the smaller 1200 car but I had the guy that had an original sticker get it scanned into computer into the correct file and had it lengthened at a point where you couldn't tell. I can't wait to get it printed out to put on the car. I'm doing that at the end of January. Later, QD.
