ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    Finally bought the accord I've been looking for :)

    Finally found it a cb7 rust free 5 speed coupe, in the mn area that's sure rare haha! She needs some work though I've had it for 3 days and I've already painted it, fixed the loopy idle (although it came back today) bought some ex wheels for 30 bucks and got some decent tires for free, it needs an axle, pretty much an entire interior, seats are shot door panels are spray painted tan and missing the cloth and fabric, turn signals for the bumper, actuator for the seat belts, oh and it needs to be slammed! Haha

      Yeah for sure! Last accord I had was a cb7 4 door but was rusty... When I seen this one for 1300 I had to jump on it... But after seeing how the guy spray painted stupid shit and it needed a little more work than I thought I couldn't pay 1300 for it so I offered 850 and he took it. Here's some pics of the stupid pointless spray painted stuff he did... FACE PALM!





      Oh and when I swapped the wheels I noticed spray painted springs an struts red and spray painted control arms strut forks etc... Silver...

            and as for right now i wasnt going for a show room quality car, but as you can see with the enginge bay steering wheel door panels etc... you can imagine what the exterior looked like, it had pounds of gloss and flat black spray paint on it and it looked like complete garbage, it looks 100 times better now which is what i was going for, wish i had taken before pictures... haha

                          thats my thinking some people just need not own vehicles, i had to buy this one to remove it from its old owner and give it some dignity, the door panels and rear sides and parts of the headliner are spray painted tan as well... im gonna attempt to clean them up and dye them with interior dye... future plans... i got a set of 17's i gotta pick up, planning on slamming it, maybe delete the factory spoiler not sure yet, and rebuild the motor... she smokes a wee bit (not enough yet to consider going into the mosquito/bug deffoging business)
