well, I wrecked my 86 accord LX-i last night. the body shop gave us an initial estamate of 4800 to fix it, but that is sure to go up.

Not sure if I'm going to keep it and fix it, or if I'll be parting it out. It does have some nice stuff on it, if I do decide to part it out.

It was all front end damage - hood, headlights, a bit on the front fendors, radiator is toast, fan obviously, probably a bit more.

we just put a new engine in it about 8k miles ago, and a new tranny (auto) 4k miles ago.

I'm swapping the engine and tranny, and selling the rest! heres a link to my sales thread! Click here! (http://www.3geez.com/forum/sr_classifieds.php?do=ad&id=368)

I'll post an update when I find out more.

That Sucks!!

Find a New Shell and swap the parts over!
