My wife's grandfather gave me his 1979 accord! This car is in great shape, garage kept and only has 30k original miles on it.

I took pics about 6 months ago, just as the Odometer hit 30k miles.

i have noticed this car on cardomain before. its really something to look at. really clean and the owner has spent a lot of time getting some really nice NOS/ used original accesories such as the roof rack, fog lamps and many other interesting add ons. best part is how low mileage that car is. if you would ask me, i think that car is fit for the museum...

Wow thats a clean ride. I would normaly say rape the virgin rides, and mod, mod, mod. On this one Id have to say restore, restore, restore.

Keep it clean!

Thanks guys, I did post this on Honda-tech back in the summer. I havent taken anymore pics since then, and the car looks exactly the same. I have driven it about 800 miles though. Driving it once a week either to work or the local car meet.

I thinking that I need to replace the timing belt, because I'm sure that it has not been done. Oh, and I have a thread asking how to adjust the carb, because it's running rich. Mostlikely it's the vacuum hoses, and I will just buy a bunch and replace them all.
