Hi all! So I've been a member on 3geez for about a year now it must be, but have never posted on here. There's a bit of a back story to this.
So my grandmother owned a beautiful 1988 Accord LX hatchback, 5 speed manual, and garaged its whole life. And it only has 112,000 kilometres on it! (That's roughly 70,000 miles!)
Sadly though, my Nana passed away not too long ago, but for the past year or two she had promised me her car. No one else wants it and I loved the thing growing up. When I first saw the pop up lights I loved it to pieces. I haven't actually got the car yet as I'm also moving house (I know, there's a lot going on right now!) but I am gonna cherish this 3gee.
I have had a passion for cars since I was about 4 years old, so it seems only fitting that the heirloom I get from my grandparents is a car. My grandfather (who passed away a year prior) always took meticulous care of both of their cars, his one being a 1986 Nissan Laurel. He did most of the driving, so before he passed away the Accord only had about 90,000 kilometres on it. It just sat in their garage unless it went out for a warrant of fitness or something.
I have plans for this car, so sometime in the future expect a build thread from me.
I have some kinda crappy photos of the car in question. Glad to be a part of this awesome community finally.
