Nice angle shot

Door pic

Another door shot

Heres a shot of the whole car

Shot of the humble engine bay

Here's the interior

Whooaaaa, thats a whole lot of travel! Original engine though, LONG LIVE HONDAS!

And a final shot of the exterior with a little dent in the back. (what would a old honda without a dent be eh?)

Did u get rear ended or back into something.Thats the same kinda car I learnt how to drive stick on.

**MrBen** · 03-14-2003, 05:06 PM

I learned how to drive a stick on my present 3g! It's still going too.

**meohmy01** · 03-14-2003, 05:08 PM

wow. that is a really clean looking car. a plunger should take that dent out of the quarter. you may need to get a dent puller and some body hammers to work out the dent under the bumper there.

**meohmy01** · 03-14-2003, 05:10 PM

damn. that engine is cleaner than my h22a.

**MrBen** · 03-14-2003, 05:14 PM

Never knew how much the 3g Accords were like the older Civic! Thanks for sharing the pictures

Reminds me of my 80 Civic.

**gruvmstr206** · 03-14-2003, 07:39 PM

Yea this Civic keeps puttin along with no signs of dying. I just changed the oil, cap, wires, filter, plugs, washed it, vaccumed it. I love taking care of my cars

**89accordboi** · 03-14-2003, 07:43 PM

u should paint it black, tint hte windows after u put some 17" rims on, drop it and get some 12" subs and a Type R sticker on the windshield and that thing will be TIGHT!

I am really starting to like older style honda's. I used to not like them but they are pretty damn nice IMO, especially yours. Just fix the dent and thats one sharp looking car. I also just learned to drive stick on my 3g, with 140K it appears to have the same clutch, and no slipping, love the honda drivetrain!

Oh man, you said a mouth full. Same here. My 88 Accord DX is in fresh out of the factory condition. I just have to finish windown and door trim, and every single part on that honda accord will look like it came straight off of the assembly line...minus the 2 right hubbies and the lil ding one the right front bumper

That is one nice, clean car dude!

I almost bought one of those at a garage sale years ago. It had a broken timing belt and the guy had the engine parts all over the place. He actually CUT the hoses to the A/C compressor to get it out of the way. I guess I just didn't have the automotive experience that I now have. Now I would have jumped on that $75 car as a "project."

Anyway, the 1g Accords basically looked like bigger Civics hatchbacks. A friend's sister had one. It had an "automatic" transmission that you had to shift from 1st to 2nd manually.

Honda automobiles have pretty much always been built like tanks. I can't speak about the newer ones.

**Grant2k** · 03-15-2003, 06:32 PM

seriously, you could start showing that car. it's 20 years old already and i know that at the car show we had where i work they had a "Stock Import" class. only 3 cars showed up and 2 were perfectly restored Triumphs, but i would bet that thing could definitly be competative in local shows. or just take it to a cruise night. you'd be surprised how many people can appreciate old hondas.

**offthahook** · 03-15-2003, 07:52 PM

That car is mad tight. Thre's one across the street EXACTLY like it here in Indy. Here's my 81 Cord. 105K, I bought it outta TX. One owner (some lady) and it has ALL the paperwork from day damn one!!!
