I doubt it, I don't see any machine guns.

I was going to post this in the "Interesting Links..." thread, but since it's mostly photos, I figured it'd be more appropriate here in RP. The site was put on the web a year ago, but I just found it today. So, here it is: Northern Lights over Teepees

This sculpture is by Jed Lind, and is entitled "Gold, Silver, and Lead".
It's made up of seven cloned Honda Civics. The caption called them '1st generation' Civics, and referred to them as 1979 models, but I personally owned a 1977 Civic, and I remember mine being a little, idk, 'rounder', so... Attachment 40200 ETA: I thought I had a pic of it. A scanned Polaroid, no less. Attachment 40201 I don't if the art is Civics or not, now. Rabbits, maybe? |

My friend in college had one (or the other) and she drove it down the middle of campus one night...I was in it. I don't even think we were drinking. I put something in the personals section of the college paper about the (one or the other car) being careful to not hit trees, and luckily I got the wrong car. |
I've been looking at a ton of 1979 hatchbacks and can't find any that have that rear window. It's got such round corners. None of them have those curves.

Is there some dispute? They look like Civic shells to me.

Perhaps stylized civic shells. The window is wrong and the sharp angles are wrong. But the holes for the tail lights are correct and the overall shape is close.

I once drove my Civic for ten days with a broken clutch cable. Up-shifting was no problem as the tranny was not a synchronized design to begin with, just let off the gas and shift, no problem.
Stopping wasn't a problem either, go to neutral, stop, turn the engine off, wait for my turn, crank the engine with the car in gear and take off in one smooth move. Downshifting was another story, I could make third by revving the engine up a bit when I hit neutral, but anything else called for a complete stop/restart. |
