Oh if you want some of my inspiration, here goes. Deciding if I like this modified grill design, I have a spare grill but wondering if I keep it or make this type to see if it suits. But god I love this colour too!

Yea next task is to take apart the good car, but in saying that as said before it's had new underseal from what I can see so I've got a feeling it's had some love

Unsure if you've been pressured into buying a 4G62, but a 4G54 is superior.... well, it would be for torque... and you can use L200 diff and gearbox which should hold up relatively well. If you are convinced by my below average attempt to convince you, I'll donate this (Below link) if you do it. One of my earlier dream cars was to get one of these and chuck in the 4g54 from the Magna. I saw this cool videos on youtube like 8 years ago of one talking about how easy the swap was. it was carbed in the vid so I thought how cool it would be to bring it into the 21st century (to some degree) and fuel inject it. //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/49034-fs-4g5024-rwd-fi-intake-manifold-loom-dizzy-ecu/#entry1546104

You have my interest. Have never seen the pulsar dizzy mod before, very cool. Whats the benefit for that vs regular electronic ignition conversion?

Teach me how to engine. I don't even, but I want to. Looks good.

Alright, started the removal of spare parts from the wreck with a couple mates Pretty much pulled: - all glass - doors - dash - fuse box - tail gate - all wiring looms (Must be about 12 wires total!) - front bumper - steering rack and ends Then we did the head lining... it was a system where the whole head lining was pressed into the top skin of the roof and had some reinforcement bars holding it in place. Of course these things are designed to go in not out we though what a genious way would be to open the top the roof like a tin can.... So after we removed the head lining it looked pretty ugly so we just decided it's probably best to make this wreck into a convertible. I am horrified in how easy it was to chop through the pilars with a hack saw. Literally about 15-20 strokes and I was through. If I'm ever in an accident it's been nice knowing all of you. Peeling all of the skins The new convertible N360 Just picture to show minimal remaining in engine bay now Next time we're taking the windscreen frame off and then flipping car 180 degrees (Or maybe just on its side) and removing the remaining stuff like subframes, petrol tank, suspension, hubs. Hopefully only a day left then we can start cracking into the good one and see what we're dealing with!

Cool, I dont think you can get much better than sticking this on 14x7's and boned out Like Snoozin's Starlet.

Bugger, was just Nelson over the weekend, would have been cool to see it. Went to the WOW and classic car museum looking for one, disappointingly didn't see one I think a mate and I are going to crack into it this weekend, look for any cancer under the interior then start stripping everything out of the parts car so I can get my Civic back in the garage. (You might laugh at that one). You're welcome to come along if you want to have a nosey, PM me and I'll flick ya my number.

Mate you can always look but don't touch right? When are you coming over to inspect and compare the old crap we own.

Hi, have you heard of our lord and savory Cheesus Crust?

Picked up owner manual and workshop manual. Nice that I can have a matching collection for me and future owners.

Reg lapsed, pretty much only downside to the car. Plans is to get and keep it running. Will get things powder coated on the way.

I guess perception is a big thing here I think maybe slightly on the expensive side for this, but realistically for how complete it is and how good condition it is, it's probably a bargin. (When compared with how cheap others have gone for and their condition)

They're like Pick-a-part, somethings are horridly expensive, other things are cheap. The main thing wrong with the place is the organisation of parts inside, they would be so much more successful if the parts were labelled better and accessible.

Even more snug in the garage

Amazing sticker on the back! All snug ready for a night under a cover

During washing - Potato picture, but you can see the before and after colour Finally had a clean for now, bit worried about the amount of white paint that came off with the wash, possibly repaint at some point :S But it's actually pretty good under the dirt so extremely happy with that!

Woke up Sunday and started washing the good one. Doesn't look too bad already, bit of rust spots but the cancer is actually really good for a ~43 year old car Before washing

Discussion: //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/49007-sirges-1969ish-honda-n360/ So I've finally embarked on my own journey of owning a classic car. Been wanting to do something in the much simpler world without luxury items such as retractable seat belts (Who really needs them anyways?) So a few months ago with my partner after we picked up our '81 Leyland Mini (Unsure if will do build thread for this too), decided to go to a place called Horopito. I'd heard of it before and people have told me there's just lots of old cars and potentially some pretty cool finds. While we were there I found some new wheels for the daily and also spotted this hidden little white Honda N360. Before I left I expressed some interest and they said they'd be happy to sell. Cool. After another couple months and a few phone calls I arranged for myself and a mate to go up with a couple trailers and pick up this little beast (A couple trailers required as they said I could have the free wreck that they had on site too). Headed up last week and stayed at brother-in-laws's place overnight for the long trip on Saturday. Couple photos the cars loaded up with the N360's Sorry potato photos below, think I smudged my phone camera lense. After an exciting trip home with not a fault in the world, such a lucky trip. We off load the car onto my driveway and I shoot off to drop the hire trailer off. Dropped it off at 4.30 (Y) Bang on time, couldn't have done it better (Only had hire trailer for 24 hours). Put a tarp over the wreck as there's holes in the roof and left it for the night.

Woops, Damien, were you ever thinking of converting this to fuel injected? Perhaps using a 4G54 (2.6L from a magna/L200) I have an rwd converted intake, ecu, loom and dizzy if you want it
