    Another n00b checking in

    What's up guys, thought I'd quit lurking and say hello to everybody.
    I picked up an '87 LXi hatch to run around in, found this site when I did a bit of searching. Must say, a lot of my tech questions have already been asked/answered, which is cool.
    The car looks rough, has had rust and been repaired (poorly) by the previous owner. 5 speed, has 230k miles but still runs great. Can't complain for the price I paid.
    I'm from South Jersey outside Philly, not sure how many others we have on here from the area.

    Re: Another n00b checking in

    Pics would be embarassing. The friend that I bought the car from did a pretty poor bondo job on the rust. Imagine a stock LXi hatch, only with door dings and mismatched paint on the bondo. But hey, it runs good, that counts right?

    The question remains, do you eat the peanut butter sandwiches while you're walking on the beach? Sand doesn't go well with condiments...
