    Re: new to the forum

    i bought a 1986 honda accord. and the one emblem says its an exi but i haven't seen anything on the internet that says accord has made a model like that. so i have been thinking it could be some other type of honda. and here are some pics of the car along side my twin brothers 88 LX

    Unhappy Re: new to the forum

    i dont think he will be looking for a new or used head the last owner had the head off for a while i guess and it must of rained or some thing but when he pulled the head off there was rust in all over the insides of the engine. and my accord when we tooka closer look at what we thought would be a little body work turns out to be a hell of alot pretty much the whole trunk and surrounding area needs to be replaced so were putting the engine into his car and some of the nicer parts that are mostly brand new on to his and scrapping the 86. and then i have to go in search for a new car
