I had a boss who had a teal blue 1984 Honda Accord. He was the best boss I ever had.

1) Early '70s Mercury Comet (Maverick clone).. Had the Grabber package (not sure what it's called for the Mercury.. that's the Ford name). Pretty nice shape, definitely had a 302.
 
2) Late '80s Civic wagon thing... the one that looked like the Tercel wagon..

The restored Opel I think is the same model that Car and Driver knocked back in the 70s really badly, causing GM to get upset
 
No, that was the earlier Opel "Kadett", the Mini Brute
C&D actually liked the later, Opel Ascona wagons.

Thanks for the correction. I don't have my past issues hadily available for reference as my place is tiny. They're in a storage locker downstairs.

The hidden-headlight Accords were sold in the USA 1986-89. At the time I really wanted a hatchback Accord, but I didn't like the pop-up headlights because I always drive with my lights on. They not only look bad when up, but they must be an areodynamic disaster.

Sad to say that I tossed out my old issues from 1969 through 1999.

Was the hatch made for all four years? I never see those, but I do see a coupe or sedan now and then. And yeah, the pop up lights can't help aerodynamics, and theere is always the danger of the car becoming a winker.
 
Shame on you for tossing those magazines!

Do you have any IDEA what an elephant could actually do to that car? Find a big one with his ears flapping, large tusks and stamping on the ground....oh YEAH, goodbye Opel.
 
54 Chrysler 4-door sedan, in primer, back sagged way down, doors ajar, spewing black smoke, trunk tied with rope....but running down the road. Not sure if it was heat-seeking or radar controlled but I'm sure it will hit something soon.

I agree with Fintail, too bad you tossed the magazines! Oh well what can you do?
