Hey guys, My rare Honda Coupe 9s

[JMSBND]

This is my 1972 Honda Coupe 9s. Dry sump, aircooled, all aluminium engine,9000rpm 130hp stock. One of only 12 left outside Japan and 6 Known to be left drivable in Austraia as the factory hipo 9s variant(quad carby big cam 10.5 to 1 compression) It goes into full restoration by me in March 2007 as a classic period style factory works race car. Bit of a change from my 1993 vtec crx and the old Vtec integra and Legend. I had a honda 360cc scamp as well but a football team flipped it over and wrecked it some years ago.........real shame it was a funny car too. Hope you all like it. James.:thumbsup:

Hi James, your Coupe 9s looks pretty good already (for it's age). Would it be safe to say that you're the only one on this forum with this car?

I also noticed the Honda badge on the front looks a bit skinny and tall compared to what we have nowadays. Good luck with the restoration :thumbsup:

[JMSBND]

Hey 07 ODY, do you have pictures? What colour is it? You should register it at http://www.honda-1300-coupe.com this is the Australian register for whats left of these groundbreaking Hondas. There is not a whole lot left. Your father gave it to you huh?:)

[07 ODY]

dad gave it to me for my 17th b day but i never used it as i already had a car so its still sitting in his shed,
