    Forrest, your car is clean! I love it.

    Of course I'm lazy. If I wanted to work on my car I'd have gotten a DSM

    That car looks good to be 20 years old. That in way better shape than my friends 86. The body is in real good shape. The headlights and hood line up perfectly. The interior looks to be in like new condition. I like the SE-i wheels too. Just get the molding piece on the driver side rear door from a junk yard or something. Good job, keep up the work.

    i'd love your wheels.

    your car looks tons better than mine, too. our interiors are the same, but i now have an armrest and tapeholder console swapped in.

    how much did you pay?

    Re: My 1986 Accord LX

    My family got it back on July 12th 2001, we needed to find a new car because our 1991 Dodge Colt Vista's tranny locked on the driveway, where my mother worked they have a white 1986 LX-i hatchw/ 480,000 miles! so my mother rented it from her boss for about two weeks, in that time I really started to like the 3gee, well I looked in our local free paper and found a 1986 Honda Accord w/ 178K miles for $2,500, so I call the guy up he really nice and we set things up for him to drive up and show the car, well the family fell in love with it and it worked out great! cuz little did we know that my grandmother would get cancer and we'd have to comute back and forth to fresno (130 miles from here) sometimes twice in a day!

    Then I got it last year, after I sold my 1985 Cadillac Seville.

    It's been a decent car, & i'm sure I'll feel alot better about it once the rebuilt carb and everything are installed!


    Thanks for the great comments everyone!

    And oh yeah THIS IS MY 500TH POST!!!

    nothing major, just stock replacement

    i'm only replacing it because my Cat has a rust hole in it along with a hole the size of a $1 Coin in my Resonator (IT SOUNDS RICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!) and the exhaust is super rust because of the car living in NJ from 11/18/85-2/??/92 and then living in major snow country from 92-01!
    I already bought it just need to install:

    Bosal Flex Pipe
    Catco High Flow (REAL CAT) Cat
    and Walker Cat Back w/ Quiet Flow 3 Muffler (NO RICE SOUND!!!!)
