Whats this car game?

I saw this car a few minutes ago on the way back from a job site. I think it might be a old Honda or maybe a Fiat. I bet it would make a great track car.

That definatley looks like a late 70's Honda CVCC. BTW, what's the difference between the CVCC and Civic or are they the same thing?

I think CVCC is the type of engine, but yeah that is an old school civic.

Actually...no. The "mini Corvette" was the Opel GT. A very interesting car!

I had a 76 Civic. Something doesn't look quite right with that one. It was a fun little car and did great on ice.

The first van is a Chenard and Walcker. The other van... I have no idea....but the vintagebus.com logo helped me find the Chenard!

How about this one:
