[mkymonkey]

ok i havent been here in a while....which car is this again? lol

[forrest89sei]

This one:

UPDATE: The car is now BAR approved, and running CROME. You can see more info here: https://www.3geez.com/forum/showthread.php?t=59300

UPDATE: It has been in a minor accident recently, with the damage being isolated to the rear bumper and spare tire well. The car is still in perfectly driveable condition. Insurance has deemed this enough to be a total loss, so the vehicle will carry a salvaged title when I settle with them. They're not
willing to give me the true worth of the car with the motor swap, so I'm selling the car again. Due to this change in title, I am offering the car at a lower price now, even with the BAR approval. I'll post up pictures of the damaged rear end by this weekend.

New Price: $2000 OBO. This is just a starting price, as I know many people will try and lowball it. Feel free to send me an offer, what ever it may be, but please, cash only. No trades for other cars or parts. Also, if anyone is willing to pay within $500 of this asking price, I can throw in a set of 18" Kyowa wheels also. You can see the wheels here: https://www.3geez.com/forum/showthread.php?t=60873

Time is of the essence, I need to sell this car soon, so start sending those offers! I'm giving this forum first dibs before I post it anywhere else. I rather have one of you take care of my baby than anyone else. Thanks!

I'm sad to see her go, but I have too many cars/projects, and I need the money....
1986 Honda Accord LX-I with a B16 engine swap. I am the second owner of this car, my uncle was the first owner. The car was originally an automatic, and the original A20 motor had about 320k miles on it before I swapped in the B16. The car runs great, and is definitely fast. Serious offers only, no low ballers, no joy rides! Email me at [email protected]

Tinted all around (20% front/5% rear)
88-89 corner lights and headlight trim
Fog lights mounted low in the rear, wired into reverse lights. Helps with reversing at night or when in the mountains, since the windows are tinted so dark
Windshield is cracked
Paint is fair, it has some rough spots here and there, but it is not horrible. The hood has a lot of rock chips. Minor rust spots on the hood and hatch.
There is a minor dent on the passenger door, probably from a parking lot.
The driver door has a scrape under the moulding line.
Tires are pretty much bald.

Here's some new hi-res pictures, including photos of the rear end damage:

[ZackieDarko]

and now for the pictues/story!!!


for those who don't know what i look like HERE I AM eating wendys at Sea-Tac



i love taking off in apirplanes..it is one of my favoriate things to do...

here we are somewhere over washington..its kinda blury though



the lighting on planes kinda sucks? i look like a creep in this one



here is one of me and my wonderful co-pilot



i seem to remember just a few years ago the peanuts came in a bigger bag!

....the bag is so tiny there were like 10 nuts in there

they also gave me a Dr Pepper and a bag of wheat thins! mmmm Dr Pepper

[ZackieDarko]

when we got near SanFran it was raining...SIDEWAYS

...can you believe that shit? that doesnt even happen here in WA..ok sometimes it does but not often


we got to our hotel at around midnight...here is a little funny side story for you...amber and i were the last 2 people on the shuttle thing fromt he airport to our hotel and the driver asked us where we were from/why we were in oakland..we told him that i was buying a car/what kind of car and he went on this little story of how he had an older accord and how the transmission went out then he sold it to some friend of his and this friend put a newer transmission in and it ran fine..i think he was a little retarted...or drunk i dunno it was kinda weird...THEN he started telling us about his guatamalan co-worker who was trying to sell EVERYTHING he owns including some ford focus wagon thing for $2,500 he kept trying to sell it to us (after he heard we were buying a car) and he wanted to give us his buddies phone #...strange


*flash forward to morning*

Ray and I were setup to meet at 8am..i was ready a little before then so i poped the TV on..guess what movie it was?



fast & teh faster #1!!!11!!!!!!!!!!11!!1!1!! ZOMG MOTEC EXHAUST and 7 speed eclipses...i digress

after all the T's were corssed and all the I's were doted amber and i left for home...except we got really lost thanks go google maps (fuck you google maps i am staying with mapquest)

here are some pictures of us going over an HOUR in the wrong direction



THE HOOD SON







some how we got off the freeway thinking we were lost and we ended up driving though some farmers market thing in what I THINK was the outskirts of SanFransisco

[ZackieDarko]

amber likes palm trees so she found a nice one



some of you may know where this theater is



we got back onto the freeway





this is where we spent $4 for no fucking reason since it was the wrong way and we ended up just drivng backacross this endless bridge





here is the COOL bridge...to bad we didn't get to see it up close





...still going the wrong way

[ZackieDarko]

after ending up totally lost we found a gas station and asked for directions the people who worked there were really nice and helped us out..we went EAST like the google map said but we should of just gone WEST and directly to I-5 north...so we ended up taking the 580 (i think) to the 205 to I-5

amber loves weird socks (we are on the right track now btw)



me being a bad ass motherfucker



the highway/freeway we were on ended into some city some where...i think it is called hayward...here is downtown




here is not down town



i dont remember where these were at but i thought they were neat





i saw this neat ass whip...i tought to my self....hey we both have vtak!



i saw the nsx just beofre these signs



here is some open road
