still not seeing any reason to let it go.... i don't know his situation either.

[HondaBoy]

what'd ya blow the motor or something? that's sad i must say to see your car being hauled away on a trailer. that would have been a good parts car it looks like.

[ehulst]

nope....the whole problem was rust...there was so much of it....it was endless....then the brakes....she was a perfect 1st car...i had so much in plan for it....it still had so much left of life....its proof that no madder how hard you beat the shit outta these accords they will always run no madder how bad they look.....it still runs just needs all fuses and battery and she'll would start right up and purr her heart out....my parents wanted a safer car for me...i put up a 3 month fight to keep it in the family..but they got too pissed to allow it.....so they made me get it towed away.....though loss

[racerx]

how much did you get for it? i'm just curious what a junkyard pays for their cars.

[HondaBoy]

OIC, so there was more rust than we could see? i'd probley make that into a body restoration project or something. i dunno, i'm going to have to do that on my jetta when i get that project started. good luck with your new car. post up the pix of the new accord. what color is it by the way?

[ehulst]

i didn't get any cash for it......my neighbour took it away for me......ussaly its 50 bucks to pick up the car..you dont get any money from the junk yard..i've asked all of em in the tri country area....for scrap metal tho, its 30 bucks that you get paid from them....

i remember my first rust
i was 17 and it was a montego mx station wagon i would hit a big giant mud puddle and water would swamp anyone who was sitting in the passenger side
brakes finally rotted out it had 98,000 miles ahhh the memories

Too sad........

[TheWatcher]

Sorry for your loss.

I just had a nightmare last night that I was teaching some underpriveleged kids, and the little f*ckers ended up stripping my 3g, they took my rear speakers and other sh*t, but strangely didn't get my front speakers. I seemed so real, I was feeling sick when I woke up.

Peace.

[1320boy]

I'd go "Postal" if anybody even thought of making me get rid of my 3G!
