New Member Old Owner

Post by bugnbox »

Hey listers!
I own a 71 N600. Ive had the car for about 27 years, so the 600 is
nothing new to me. It was a basketcase when I bought it (I was 13 at
the time) and I had it running and driving by the time I had my
driver's license. I started a Honda 600 Club of sorts back in my
youth that never really went anywhere. I drove it to High School and
into my first years at collecge and then I stashed it on the side of
my Mothers house and forgot about it. Over the years when I had it
running I went through a couple Z coupes and another N project,
managed to find a factory engine stand for those late night motor
pulls, and a whole bunch of literature and a few toys...I was into
it pretty heavy.
About two years ago I hauled it out of its resting place and brought
it to my shop (Im a VW Customizer/builder ). Im just starting to get
caught up with some other long standing projects and the 600 will
soon be next in line. Im looking forward to the process and to make
it a really clean show stopper...I had it done pretty cool back in
the 80's, all monochrome bright yellow with a big air dam up front,
rubber fender flares, some cool 10" alloys and a Monza tip exhaust.
It didnt stand the test of time very well, so now it needs
everything, but Im really looking forward to it. Hoping to maybe set
a goal of having it done for our 30th anniversary together.
Anyway...Im located near Temecula California and would love to have
some buddies to play with...so Im very glad to be here!
Cheers!

> Hi Randy,
I'd like to hear updates from you on your 600. Maybe you have some
neat things you could share with us. Some may need you to make flared
fenders and some other neat mods.
