Check the speakers and the fuse. I had the same car, back in the day. I bought from a guy who didn't tell me that the head had a hole in it. It took a lot of water to fill up the radiator, as it filled the whole crankcase. It looked like a nut had gotten jammed under the cam lobe. I took the head off and had it welded up. Simple car to work on. I put new rings and bearings in it and had the head milled. I mixed up the positions of the pistons, Honda has them matched and uses different thickness bearing shells to get the correct oil clearances. The are punched with letters indicating the tolerance. The car had a rod knock after I finished. I put thick oil it,which silenced the knock. I kept it for a year and drove it to Illinois from California. My brother sold it to a friend of his, who changed the oil. Shortly after the the car threw a rod. The car has such a short wheel base and stiff suspension, I remember getting air through intersections. The carburetor is tricky to get the float right.
