My new car

**pearldrop** · 03-18-2003, 12:12 PM

I know its nothing special but it was free. Now we can keep the Prelude out of nasty weather again.

**Grant2k** · 03-18-2003, 12:16 PM

i love it. just keep it clean and i think that car looks great. and the price was right too! wow, to not be in the Rust Belt.

woo woo nice shit pearl!

**meohmy01** · 03-18-2003, 01:27 PM

i like that 4th gen wagon in the backround. i always wanted a decked out wagon. but i don't think i would ave the guts to drive it.

**PhydeauX** · 03-18-2003, 03:12 PM

Wow, thats quite clean for a 2nd gen. Is the angle just hiding the rusted out fenders in the photo or are they actually in on piece. Photoshop is the only reason mine lacks fender holes and has all its moldings.

Come on Pearl... Lots of chrome trim... a nice set of rims to match, Dark Pearl Paint job, and some interior work to smooth out the interior door pannels and such.

Photoshop here I come

We have no rust problems around here. The weather is so mild that they never salt the roads. So I never have to worry about that. I have enough other projects right now that I wouldn't have time to start this one if I wanted to.

**pearldrop** · 03-18-2003, 04:22 PM

There is one dent on the back corner though. The corner of the taillight is broken right below it too. There is very slight rust on the big open patch where the paint was knocked off. Other than that the car is pretty straight.

**meohmy01** · 03-18-2003, 04:26 PM

they were selling one here. an 85 hatch with a standard trany and 120k for a hundred bucks. it needed a clutch. i would have purchased it but 1 cars and 2 pieces of crap is enough for me.

**johndej** · 03-18-2003, 04:27 PM

dude, a guy 2 houses down just got that same car (just that its here and is a little worse off). oh well, it looks great to me, what year is it agian?

**danronian** · 03-18-2003, 07:29 PM

**88 Accord DX** · 03-19-2003, 06:13 AM

**3G Jester** · 03-19-2003, 06:24 AM

**pearldrop** · 03-19-2003, 07:49 AM

I got it for free because my uncle had to go to the hospital and he is losing his house (very long story). He had this car and a 79 CVCC wagon sitting in his yard (both are/were in gross condition just filled with junk and clothes). So he signed this car over to me just to get rid of it. I'm sure I could take the CVCC too if I wanted it but I don't have the space at my place for another car. I spent a day cleaning out the interior and getting the moss off the outside of it. It had been sitting for three to four years so I had to pay $65 for a lost title application and new plates and tabs. Plus I put four new (used) tires on it that cost me $130. So the car isn't completely free. I still need to take out the seats and shampoo everything but overall the car isn't bad except that it needs a muffler.

I am really not going to do anything to this car other than clean up all the black trim that is peeled off.

**buzzbomber88lx** · 03-19-2003, 08:44 AM

I can't wait to see what it looks like when you do to it what you have to the lude and wagon! Yeah!!! that car will be badass. Not saying it isnt already. be like phydeaux ad put the dcoe's on that badboy.

**buzzbomber88lx** · 03-19-2003, 08:48 AM

Hey pearldrop you got any spare headlights for a 4th gen wagon laying around? or do you know where I can get some lenses cheap. My mom(I said mom) has one and needs a pass. side lens. She found a set of euro headlights on ebay really cheap but she only needs the lens.

**pearldrop** · 03-19-2003, 09:05 AM

I need a passenger side one too. Mine has a rock chip in it. I wish I needed a driver's side one instead, then I would sell her mine and buy the JDM one-piece ones.

**meohmy01** · 03-19-2003, 12:37 PM

i bought one piece cf housing headlights for my 94 coupe. looks hot.

**evil_honda** · 03-25-2003, 11:24 PM
