    Don't tell anyone but I almost cried reading this.... (Ok not really...but it's sad nonetheless.)
    I hope she gets saved and finds a good home...she looks like she's worth the effort.

    I wish I had the space. I'd fix her up and sell. I'm sure lots of people could use a cheap, interesting running car!

    I feel the same way.

    I wonder why you guys in the northern west coast still have all those nice old cars... A car will rust badly in roughly 10 years on the east coast.

    Anyway, this car will probably end in a junkyard where people will slash the seats and jump on the roof... then it's going to be crushed and be sold by the pound for metal.

    yeah, i've been looking into old hondas for years. i'm new to this forum, but washington state is the land of old honda's.

    i generally don't like to generalize, but it seems to me that the high asian/pacific islander population, coupled with the fact that it is a port city, and it's emission laws are far less stringent than that of say california, may be a factor.

    a lot of these cars have been stored in barns, and a lot have been left to the elements. and given the shit weather of the pacific northwest, a lot of them are rotted, but more often than not you will come across that barn car that is the bee's knees.

    in short; i really want to move up north.

    I think the salt is a bigger killer than the weather. Sure, it rains a lot here, but a few days of salt on the road will do far more damage than a year's worth of rain.
