I have in my garage a convertible "Fiat 800 Spider" year 1968.
A "Fiat 125 Sport Coupe" year 1974.
And my latest acquisition is a "Honda Accord Hatchback 1980", in a very pure and original condition, with only 120,000 kilometers .-
My Honda is a Japanese model LX .-
I will upload photos of my "Little Honda."
A pleasure to be here with you, and forgive my bad English knowledge, I speak Spanish.
Thanks

That Honda looks in great condition!

Welcome to the boards, I don't think it would be a problem if you showed a couple pictures of your Fiats too (I would not mind anyway).

Thanks for your comment, friend.
I'll show my Fiat:
First, the "Fiat 800 Spider" and the "Fiat 125 Sport Coupe"
Anyway if you would like to see more pictures of my cars I invite you to view my photos at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/gatosalvaje1961/

Sweet cars, welcome home. :mrgreen:

Great cars, all of them. :tu:

I've had a lot of Fiat's over the years too. We didn't get the 800 in the US, but did get the later 850. Never had the 125 either, had the 124 spiders, wagons and coupes. Is that a 128 behind your car?

Thank you.
The Fiat 800 Spider, was produced exclusively in Argentina between the years 1965/1970, is almost identical to "Fiat 850 Spider Vignale" made in Italy ".
Indeed, what is seen behind a Fiat 128, from a friend.

Welcome to JNC!

Thank you for your concepts.
If indeed my Honda is in very good condition and originality.
Distance van and language to hinder my participation in the forum, but hopefully also find good friends around here.
Maybe I too can contribute.
Greetings.

Thanks, I see that there is someone here who speaks Spanish, you know if there are more people in the forum they talk?.
But I do not know English, and use a translator online, and you know they are not very loyal.
I hope I write something very ugly, hahaha

Gracias, veo que hay alguien que habla español por aquí, sabes si hay mas gente en el foro que lo hable?.
Es que yo no se ingles y uso un traductor online y ya se sabe que no son muy buenos.
Espero no escribir algo muy feo, jajaja

As people said, Welcome home !!!
You´re no te the only one from Argentina here in the forum, there is "Seis"... and i´m from Colombia

Nice cars, especially the Honda!!!

Hola Carlos bienvenido al foro, no eres el único argentino aca, también está "Seis", yo soy de Colombia y es un gusto encontrar más latinoamericanos, creo que he visto mexicanos también. Espero que disfrutes del foro.

A propósito hermoso todos tus carros, pero el Honda me gusta mucho más por el hecho que es japones y es extraño verlos en tan buenas condiciones, lo digo porque en Colombia la mayoría de Hondas de esos modelos ya están acabados. Yo tengo un Datsun 280ZX 2+2, 1980 en proceso de restauración.

Saludos

Camilo

Carlos Hatchback: hi, welcome.. nice car..

Hi Camilo
Well I do not feel so alone now, it's always good to find someone who speaks your language.
I hope here not having to wade through the Hispanic-speaking.
You know I'm casually also a forum for Japanese cars, that "Seis" created in Argentina for those who speak Spanish.
But I did not know until now that Seis is also registered in JNC
Luckily, my Honda was very good care by previous owners, and I can enjoy it fully, I am very happy to have found in such good condition.
Your Datsun is also my weakness, I've always liked, but is very expensive here in Argentina.
Good luck in the restoration.
Thanks also to jerseymike68.

Hello and welcome.

The Accord is very nice and clean :tu:

Loving the Fiats. I learnt driving in a 1969 850 Berlina when I was 9. We never had the 800 Spider, only 124 Spider. We did have 850 Coupe, 850 Sports Coupe (903cc), 124 Sport. Others are boring sedans lol

There's an abandoned 128CL behind my house.

hola Carlos, bienvenido!

yo soy Felipe, vivo en santiago, Chile que bueno tenerte por aca y que raro encontrar un Honda en TAN buenas condiciones alla en argentina, sobre todo los oldschools yo las varias veces que he ido, solo vi un civic 77 station en muy malas condiciones.

Que bueno que haya mas gente de sudamerica!

saludos!

No solo de SudaAmerica...pero de Centro America tambien!! 100% Chapin aqui! :mrgreen:

Hola Amigos !!
De donde eres Capital15 ?
Que bueno encontrar mas latinos por acá, esperemos que no nos hechen del foro por cambiarles el idioma :roll:

Felipe es verdad, la mayoria de los Honda ochentosos que hay en Buenos Aires estan muy mal cuidados, pero recien ahora estan empezando a valorarlos, por suerte.
Y en Santiago como es la cosa?, se ven muchos Japs hoy en día?
Un abrazo.
