This is a custom 1983 Honda Civic Wagon built by Rutledge Wood, ost of Top Gear USA and seen on Lost in Transmission on History. It was built by Charles Warren, ormer owner of Mainstream Performance and tuned by Scotty B(Atlanta Honda Tuner). It has a 1996 Acura Integra B18b Swap, o the car has been converted to fuel injection and uses a Walbro in tank fuel pump. Since it was a cable transmission car, t uses a HASport cable to hydraulic transmission adapter to use the Integra’s hydro trans and shifts smoothly. It features a custom Magnaflow exhaust and high flow catalytic convertor. It is wired as OBD2 but uses a jumper harness and runs an OBD1 ecu. Custom motor mounts were made for the car at Mainstream and custom axles were built by the Driveshaft Shop. Car was believed to have 130hp to the wheels, hich although that’s not a ton, t’s almost twice what this car had originally. The body was stripped and repainted Nissan D-12 Tank Green at Brian’s Paint and Body in Sharpsburg,GA. It has been stored indoors since restoration and the paint looks better than when the car was made new. The suspension has been lowered using custom rate Eibach springs on coilover sleeves up front, nd lowering blocks on the rear leaf springs. The car also has new shocks all the way around. It sits on 15” Enkei Wheel 92’s that are gold with a polished lip. The interior has been completely redone by AAA Interiors in Moreland, A. It features a set of Recaro “Trophy” seats out of a MKII Volkswagen. The interior is covered in a celery green vinyl and a plaid from a Volkswagen Westfalia camper. There is also a beautiful Nardi wooden steering wheel, omplete with a NRG quick release. It features an old Momo F1 wooden shift knob that Rutledge told me came out of Tanner Foust’s Nissan 300zx from Season 1 of Top Gear in the Moonshine show they did. In the rear hatch, here is a vintage Coleman cooler which hides the battery in it. The car also features a wooden roof rack that uses the original crossbars. Overall, t’s a great car that’s in great shape. It has been driven very little since it was built. The car was built and tuned all at Mainstream performance, nd then painted and interior done. The car was built to have air conditioning, o it uses an Integra b18b compressor with custom lines that use everything else that was original to the wagon. It was charged when it was built, ut there was some sort of leak in the system, o the AC does not blow cold. It does have hot heat. Because of Georgia’s title laws, t does not require a title due to its age, o please make a note of that. Also due to its age, he state of Georgia does not require emissions, owever it shows no check engine lights and I do think it should pass any standard emissions test since it has a new catalytic convertor, ut I cannot guarantee it. Great all around car that will make someone very happy. Should be noted that the rear door on the driver’s side may need a new window regulator in the future since it does not roll all the way up (missed by about an inch). Also, t has no radio, o it’s ready for the new owner to put in whatever they like.
