      this thread is like a great movie that you watch over and over again. i mean this is the third time i've read this. it almost imspires to tears. your commitment/dedication/loyalty/(however you put it) to the CB game is outta this world. i think it so great how a site like this makes a family outta people who might not meet each other, otherwise.

        This is very true, whenever i see another CB7 on the road, even if i don't know the person, im am thinking to myself, that's my cb7 brother.

        This site is great!

        And Mike, like others have said, your dedication and hard work is an inspiration to us all, when we are fed up with our CB's we just think about some of the cool stuff you have done and think, wow, if there is a feature i don't have/want, just make it work.

                    So the '91 EX was sold to my brother, who ended up driving it for a few years. He still to this day talks about how he enjoyed owning it.





                    Obviously I mentioned that I had bought Steve/ATX's old coupe: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=46612 I had parked it and tore it down to completely redo the engine bay and suspension, with the hopes of doing the interior and exterior at some point in the future.



                    Ends up I ran into some engine troubles (last time I ever recommend Skunk2 valvetrain components) so the car ended up getting parked sometime in 2008. It sat unmoved, collecting algae.

                    Throughout this time, I was driving the '93 EX sedan (#4) as my daily driver. It treated me incredibly well as I kept up the maintenance on the car pretty meticulously. I ended up picking up a '92 Toyota Pickup and selling the Accord:

                    (pic from the classified ad)


                    Fast foward 5 years, with all the CB7s gone besides the broken coupe and my truck, I ended up focusing on the coupe again. It was completely refreshed and put back together and put up for sale: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=201910



                    A different motor was installed, and all of the major components from the white coupe were saved, and put into a collection with a number of other new parts. This "full car build" worth of parts was packed into storage in preparation to be used on a new CB7.

                    Ends up in late 2013, I had located a minty clean '93 EX Coupe, 5spd with 55K miles and all original, from Florida with NO RUST: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=201914



                    Flew down there and bought it on the spot, and drove it home.

                    Stay tuned for my future build of this new grey coupe - I have a solid collection of parts lined up for it.
