This has been my daily driver for the last two years. I'm really not wanting to sell it but as I just got a job that requires I travel more I need to sell this and get something more practical. I replaced the driver side door and front fender from another yellow 79 cvcc. The car they came off of was less shiny so they don't match perfectly with the rest of the car which is shiny. Look closely at the pictures to see the difference in sheen. I've put some mechanical work into it in the last year…-New Battery-New Tires-New Radiator-New Hoses-Carb Rebuilt Clean title. 151k miles on the car. 5 speed. Runs great, I drive it every single day in all weather. Things I would do if I wanted it to look new would be to repair the tear in the driver seat, pull out a few very small dents, straighten the back bumper on the driver side and find the plastic piece. Paint the new door and fender to match the rest of the car. Replace the shifter bushings. May do that before someone buys it. as it stands it's hard to get in first and revers because the bushing is worn. I would maybe get a weber carb but the original has been rebuilt. I still have to choke it in the morning and it smokes a little while warming up, but it runs great all day and doesn't smoke.
