That's a cool little car, I'm so glad you rescued it  :)  It's my dream to restore a classic car someday.  Those antique Honda's are neat looking and unique cars.

Uggh.  No offense my friend.  I had nothing but bad experiences with Honda's and Toyota's from the 70s until the late mid-80s when they got their act together and blew everyone else out of the water with awesome reliability.

Broo :o that engine is TINY. How much horsepower? I'd expect a small engine like that from a motorcycle.

A 50cc car?? My motorcycle (recently bought) is 600cc, 110hp (although motorcycle hp and car hp aren't quite the same) and
400+ pounds... redlines at 16,000 rpm. haha... I was thinking this car engine was as big as a motorcycle engine but apparently
not even close.

I thought that the 4AFE engine in my old 1989 Toyota Corolla I had years ago was the same size, but then again I didn't have the engine out of the car so I'm not sure. ??? It was a 1600cc engine if I remember.
