    hello to everyone!!

    ok so i have checked this site out for a few years now and finally decided to be member!! i purchased my 1981 accord 4dr in 2003 strickly as transportation for $350.00.. i fell in love with it and it has been a slow work in progress ever since(and my daily driver). almost everything has been rebuilt,replaced,or reworked in some way..drivetrain,int,body,wheels...etc... i LOVE my classic honda, its a blast to work on and rewind the hands of time making it better than before.. finding clean vintage parts for it is also fun( i found a clean set of oem 1981 accord floor mats last week and i was stoked on the find and purchase!! my girl was like WTF. just like the time i bought a complete accord from pick a part just for the rediculously clean interior. ) ..but its nice to know people on here will love and appreciate as i do.. i will try to get a good camera and take some more current and clear pics..

    Man that thing looks rad!!! Nice work!!! I like the black between the taillights. Looks good. And the wheels are pretty sweet, nice dish. Love the Nardi wheel too. Very classy. Did you do a 4x100 conversion? Or did you get 4x120 wheels? How did you get those on there? Also, how did you lower the car? Did you find springs or did you have to chop those ones down? Damn that thing is so fresh and clean. Are you taking it to the classic Japanese car show in October?

    dude, love your car man. i know you'l enjoy yourself on 1geez. its an amazing site with lot of friends. as for your car, love your steering wheel and body colour. truely and amazing restoration job. also neat that you decided to shave the belt trim on the doors and around the trunk. its cool. i noticed that your metering is in mph/kmh and has lots of extras. i'm guessing the car is an automatic with power steering? good luck and regards, dev

    and yeah, welcome to 1geez.com

    It's definitely a 5-speed. No gear selector indicator inside the tach. I didn't notice the shaved moldings either... Looks awesome!

    Wow.
    lovely

    Those wheels & tyres look so tight -in fit -looks great with that ride height.
    Lots of work evident everywhere.

    Yes more details (how big, how low), & some distance and historical shots for perspective.

    That is Beautiful man!
    I understand what you are saying about the GF having no appreciation for what you are doing there. Very few people seem to.
    Luckily you found the place where all the people with the same sickness hang out.
