Project George: Restoring a 1974 Mk1 Honda Civic [EP01]

This car hasn't turned a wheel in over 30 years and has sat in a dry storage unit since 1987. No brakes, engine seized and looking rather sorry for itself but still a fairly solid car which deserves to live again. The original owner (George) took the car off the road in '86 having became ill and sadly died shortly after.
I'll be rebuilding/restoring the car over the next 6 months and hoping to share progress on YT! Seems entirely fitting to name the car after the original owner who put this little gem into storage.

I shall watch with interest. I have one about the same age and can't wait to get it back on the road.

Yay she is home! Best of luck with this Phil, the body and interior seem remarkably good!

I'm VERY happy with it too Kev! I've uncovered lots of rust but that will be covered in an upcoming video!
