    Awesome 1st Gen Accord DIY Videos

    Mr. lostscotiaguy probably doesn't want to share much of his work but check out these awesome DIY videos & writeups he's posted on Honda Roots for 1st gen Accords and basic info for all early Honda's. He's posted it under as restoration. Great stuff Ethan, please keep up the great work! Maybe a sticky by chance?

    I've been away too long!!!! LOL Wow, thanks for the props folks! I've been so busy lately I haven't checked out my "Old haunting ground" for a while. I didn't really talk about Roots because I didn't want to ruffle any feathers (so to speak) for pimping it here. It's not technically MY site but you might say I'm the co-pilot and I try to contribute as much content as I can.

    I will say that ALL are welcome though: the more the merrier! As for my vids/how to's I just felt there isn't enough of kind of stuff like it out there so I figured I might as well create some of it myself. I tend to ramble a bit (Anyone on here who knows me on here knows I'm a blabbermouth! LOL) but I think I'm getting better at it!

    I'm new to videos so I'm trying to find the perfect balance between being informative/comprehensive and entertaining. Anyhow there's more to come so "stay tuned". There will be more videos soon, including a carb video (Not looking forward to it but smog time is coming up fast!). In fact the carb may have to be a multi-part one, as I'd like to really do a definitive guide for not only the carb itself, but also all the smog equipment.
