drives well, in need of front tie/radius rod (the one keeping the wheel from moving backwards) as a bad driver made me hit and it snapped, looks as though it was already partly snapped and worn through for a while. Having major difficulties finding this part as there are very very few left on the roads in the UK
Next: paint steel wheels, kybgr2's + lower springs, refit front number
Photo's coming soon

thanks for the welcome, i don't know how to get the pictures to come up bigger
Looks mint and welcome!
theres a bit of rust in the wheel arches, centre section of exhaust could do with replacing, sunroof leaks a little when moving after being stood in rain, very slight oil leak no issue doesn't even drip,
it has no form of music unfortunately and speakers are pretty shot but will sort that soon, everything works on the car apart from ariel doesn't retract - no worries looks ok, oh and this new problem of a snapped suspension rod :(
:welcome: from Vancouver Wa. What does the 4wA.L.B. badge stand for?
I think that means it has A.B.S.Quote:

Cheers fellas, it is a pretty straight car just shabby in places, ill get some more pictures up in a bit..
Prionance Glauca - thanks man, the 4wALB means 4 wheel anti-lock brakes although they don't work that well if your on grass or something sloppy....looks like bags of potential in that 87 hatch you got
Honda Man - REAR FOGS may come available if i get a brand new back bumper cz i want to clean up the look but they do look pretty cool and there super bright so might keep. ATM NOT AVAILABLE as improving the rear bumper would be one of the final jobs on this car, if a job at all.
There will be a few parts that i will be able to get off this car and make available to people on 3geez, i will post on here as soon as i know about anything, as i know how hard it can be to find parts for these little beasts.
my Accord when i first got it before i reversed into a tree and cracked the rear tail light lens and dented the metal below which has now got a little weak rust that can be got off

this is the end which is really hard to get out because the bolts are under other suspension components:

Oh :uh: I feel like dumb ass 4wA.L.B. = four wheel anti-lock breaks. I should have known that. Thanks for props on my hatch.
looking at your other pictures and that hatchback already looks sick mate i definitely prefer the american pop-up lights
Hi! Good to see another accord so close to home, even though I am across the water in north west of ireland!
did you get your radius bar sorted? I remember that I had to take the entire lower arm off the car so that I could but it in a vice to shift those bolts with some heat.. they are in tight.. Also, the other end of the bar that is mounted in the front sub frame will be tight, back it off it steps( loosen a bit and let it cool) and keep it wet with wd40.
We should keep in touch! I have searched all breaker yards in ireland for spare bits for these cars and cant find any. If you are in a breakers yard and spot one let me know what shape its in.
I currently need a rear left tail light as mines is cracked.
Stephen.

I am also at this stage with my rear bumper.. Although, removing these nuts dont remove the bumper from the car. There is some bolts behind the front indicator and then under neath and at the side. check out the work shop manual on releasing the bumper...
Does any one have any advise on shifting these? I dont want to drill them out as the heat generated by drilling will melt the bumper.
good to see a silver accord. looks very nice. if you ever decide on selling the fog lights i'll snap them up as i need a pair.
