    i would say to keep it n sell parts, then junk it once you cant sell parts, buy a body of another accord n swap the engine n tranz out. assuming the engine its self is still good. or just get another cb. i blew my engine n had like 100 bucks so i bought a block, dad bought the head bolts n i put the beast back together. took about a month of total work. maybe you could do something like that, i am a college kid too.
    or get as much money from it as possible n start with a new cb.

          Not gonna read every post in this thread but...

          If a car means that much to you, why not fully insure it?

            Your 19 year old car with 400,000KM got totaled, you have no injuries, and you are suing for $25,000.



            Unless you are an affluent business man (which I'm guessing you are not given your age) your time is no where near $25k. Pain and suffering? Please.

            You would probably sue McDonalds if you spilled hot coffee on yourself.

            Deal with the loss and move on with life.

              I understood that you were just using it as a lawless state. I just saw it as if there had been noone around you would have popped the 87 year old woman in the nose?

                well the way i see it in the pics..is the fender wall is bent in so the frame is bent.....
                but on the other hand u have a full workin motor and tranny umong extras for parts....
                so my opinion would be to find a cb with a blown motor or tranny..not that hard to find....buy it for cheap and swap ur parts in.. all said and done junk the wagon ull problly get a few hundred for it...so u end up spending close to nun for a diff cb....
                this is what i did with mine....smashed my old cb dx..bought my cb i have now for $600 needed a motor swaped motors keep my spare tranny junked car for $200..so i actually spent 400 on my car and i didnt have to pay for extra parts as i had them already...ur choice tho

                  I am sorry that happened to you I know how much you value your ride but if you saw them ahead of time? it was prevetable that's what my job would tell me I drive for a living and it's hard trying to stay out of accidents they turn in front of you no signal cutting off speeding blowing horn at a stop sign dude stop means stop not roll n go not slow simply Stop so frustrating you have to be defensive like it or not you have to be the one to make it right no matter how much it kills you better to be safe than sorry safety always first Billy

                    yeah man, i'd say let go of it. I know if this would've happened to me, I would probably buy another car...its not worth it, $$$ wise to do all that work and invest all that time where there are LOTs of CB7s on the market today.

                    Like take this white 91 CB Coupe I bought. I got it for 300 with a blown headgasket the guy said. Put 600 or so in parts, and labor for the machine shop and fixed a few safety things like the bumper/door/lower balljoints/UCAs and its just about done, will be in the winter time since I'm off school for a month, ready for DD use. And this one only has 180k not 400k like yours.

                    Paint/Body work can add up REALLY quickly and it not only isn't cheap, but it takes time to do it right. Most logical route would be to get another donor car and swap all your known good parts to that and junk the wagon. It looks too far gone and your wagon may be worth little to nothing with 400k AND a salvage title now

                        he wasn't talking about you having anything against Africa. He was simply referring to what you said. "I would of done something so disgustingly mind-blowingly terrible to her I will not even say it." What the fuck is that supposed to mean? She's 87. So what disgustingly mind-blowing terrible thing would you done huh? Rape her? Beat the shit out of her? Kill her? You're fucking disgusting me. Let's see if you'll even live 87 years. How can you even say things like that? IT'S just a fucking car. Not Ferrari, Porshe or Lamborgini. Its a 1991 Accord. Get over it kiddo

                          You seriously think your gonna get 25 grand out of this accident?

                          Let me give you a little insight before you get your hopes up....I have a buddy who was involved in an accident a few years ago....He was the passenger in a car that flipped over while trying to merge on the 401....He suffered a punctured lung, broken pelvis and a major concussion...among other minor injuries.

                          The check he recieved was 25000....So considering the lady was not deemed at fault and its a 20 year old car with really miniscule damage (in the grand scheme of things) dont expect much, if anything....Emotional attachment wont get you shit all.

                          You remind me of a family friend....Shes been in more accidents than I can even pretend to remember....and every single one she has sued....Shit like this shouldnt be sued over....You walked away unscathed....Just move on.

                              she did not create a traffic violation.
                              she did however have bad judgement.

                              in CA you would get the ticket for speeding.
                              so good luck, try earning your money like the rest of the world!

                              as stated she is not paying directly, but if you sue her insurance company
                              for this accident, then most likley her premium will go up. So yes you are taking money from her.

                              x2 on if the car means so much get full insurance!
