Holy shart, for 335K that thing is in great shape. How dose the interior and engine bay look? Good find and great price.

life could be better, but we are working on it! im pretty happy with this purchase. after my coupe (the one my wife dropped a screwdriver bit down the intake), i got the 4g, then a 87 civic (still got), now this. working pretty hard, and hopefully this accord will come together nicely. nice to see you still around Alex, too bad you got rid of your accord. but times do change i guess! anywho, thanks for the coments.

that sounds nice...yeah a new engine build would be worth it but the chasis has too many miles...you will be surprice how much stuff you will find once you start striping it down.

not bad, not bad at all. can't complain for only $400. especially if it's running decently with all those miles.

looks good,that looks exactly like the one I parted out at the yard a few years ago. same color and everything. those seats are what I built my seats up from,with a lot of track modification. looks like you have some body work to do. we now have one of those locally here,except it's so rusted you can see into the body from outside. I noticed your back seats aren't ripped at the top. good going on finding one like that.
