What ive been up to

[Civic Accord Honda]

Hey everyone its been a long time. thought id let you know whats new and what Ive been up to in the car world.
Ive sort of become a car scraper I look for cheap old cars salvage parts off them and send them to the junkyard.
As you know when i left here i had the 97 Geo metro and 91 accord
Well I bought a 92 accord sedan and sold the geo ( remember i got the geo for $300? i put about $200 in to it fixing the dizzy and new waterpump and timing belt. sold it for $1100!)

heres the 92 when i bought it

WIP

Prime



I ended up selling it to the girl i got the Geo from.
she blew the engine up..


now back to the 91 accord. here she is in her prime




had a full lip kit on it, 2.5" exhaust with magnaflow resonators, rebuilt the whole suspension. new clutch and MUCH more...

then she failed smog and I ended up with this junk heap next to it

RIP Accord http://youtu.be/TUaAdk3hghc

Now the 95 Civic EX with a y7/z6 mini me...i paid $1700 for it.. 23 hours later the engine blew. the knock i thought was an exhaust manifold gasket was a rod bearing and it spun...Did a d15b vtec swap...til i went to change the water pump. someone had jb welded the crank pully bolt in YAY. so pulled that engine out got a D15B non vtec (d15b2 basically) lasted a good 15K miles. then started burning to much oil...got a 228K D15b7. put that in. now it has 268K on it and still running . had to change the head gasket a couple months ago. change the trans. clutch. new struts etc almost everything on this car has been replaced.
when i got it

this body work looked fine the night i bought the car til i saw it better the next day.


some paint work and a new bumper that was warped -_-

engine number 1

engine number 2

Drove 100 miles with that engine back there ^

engine 3

Current engine

got theses rims for $150 with good tiers

Then my mom bought brand new rims and tiers.

also both fenders, and bumpers were replaced again
OLD pic of it slammed


Then... i bought....a 4cylinder mustang automatic.


Well i traded a Laptop for it. Since my parents have put over $5000 in to the civic and i feel its cursed by the devil. i wanted something else. and let them do what they want with the civic

17MPG out of a 4banger!


cleaned it up a bit but thats about all i did

Well then i bought a 89 ranger for $200 that had $700 in back fees... i was sick of how slow the mustang was and the trans was sliping so i sold it for $700 and she was gone!
The beast!



Well i got the rego paid up on it. and started fixing it up. had to fix the brakes first. then tune up and shit.


that bumper did get painted black ^

well had it for awhile and then i went to weld the cats back on since the welds were split. and found out they were gutted out YAY. $300 for a new cat, $200 for a windsheld and i was getting 8MPG. Sold it for $500 . had alot of fun with it. got alot of use out of it

Oh i forgot when i got rid of the Accord i got this.

[Civic Accord Honda]

The $150 1988 HF CRX Shell





pic is kinda dark but u can see the rims i had on the civic are on it

Got an HF motor with trans ECU for $200 + a subaru turbo


as much work as I have done so far. the car is in ridgecrest and its to hot up there to work on it

Plan for it is Autocross car. sunday driver. Later it will get a more powerfull engine swap. IT had a b18c5 in it so all the wiering is hacked up and obd1 converted which i have to convert back to pass smog!

[Civic Accord Honda]

cars i have junked


That is not why it was junked
This is why

Unfortently this became a parts car

Free mazda with blown trans and hella back tags

WAs a cool car too

Lol alot are done with different cell phones ( and some on the cell were edited with hipstergram). only a few were done with a real digital camera but most of them were also taken before i got my tripod as well.

And yeah its allways fun and good experince. sad to see alot of them go but i make profit off them.

like that sentra. i got it for $300. i took the new tiers off and put some steelies i had on it with tiers that had wires sticking out the sides on it. Took the new battery out and stuck an old dead one in it. and it had 4 new pioneer speakers, a brand new sony deck, and nice 400 watt amp under the seat!!! then i sold it for $450 to the junkyard. so i made $150, + got tiers/rims, a complete sound system , and a new interstate battery
