Accord noob.

Got another Honda but my first Accord. Traded a car I paid $400 bucks for. My friend referred me to this site, I've been on this site for a bout a week leeching peoples knowledge without posting, so I figured I'd say whats up.

88 Accord with about 200k miles and a carb. Trying to get my friends hatch with a thrown rod but he won't sell it for some reason.

I've had more Hondas than some people have had cars. Oh and I use the search function on forums well.

Dont mind all the black marks on the paint thats actually grease from my hands..... Had ALOT to put back together before I could drive home.

Hi and :welcome:

[Slipup]

Thanks everyone.

Hey A18 where did you get those fogs from?

Just finished getting her back together for the most part and drove to my house for easier access. Few kinks here and there and oh I lied on the mileage its actually 249k miles. Snapped some pics on the phone and I'll post them in a bit. The exterior and interior considering what it is and how much I got it for is excellent.

Photos are up, yes they were taken with a phone. Not to bad of quality though for a Droid.

nice im about to buy a 89 accord dx coupe with 104,xxx miles. the only down side is it has some rust in the rear and rust on the drivers side rear fender. and a leaking windshield wiper tank.. but hes asking $800

[Slipup]

Yeah thats to be expected though from a car thats in PA and that old. The price is pretty good though, I'd say jump on it.

[O HELLA OEM]

wow your accord is clean! no rust at all lol..

[Slipup]

Yeah interior is in real good condition as well. My buddy who has the F150 in that drive way and is a V8 guy bought it so he could have something good on gas.

Has a oil pan leak and a fail "friend" mechanic lead him in all sorts of wrong directions and tor a CV joint boot while helping him pull the motor for a full rebuild. He got tired of dealing with it and I'm always to drunk to drive over there to help him.

I gave him my 626 that I paid $400 for and he gave me the Accord and the rebuild kit straight up.

The 626 was just a daily driver which is what this will be as well. I plan on doing some stuff to it since I can't leave anything alone. But I won't be taking it as serious since I'm saving on the side for another AE86 or a Miata. Miss my AE86 to death, by far the funnest car I've ever driven in my life. Never had a Miata but I've always wanted to drive one and try it out in Spec Miata.

Well Accord number 2 is on the way next week. Talked a guy into selling me his hatch with a spun bearing.
