    HappyGilmore : 1997 Honda Accord LX

    Mods: Stock for now

    It is a 5 speed CE1
















    Future Plans Short Term:

    Brake lines Need replaced [FIXED]

    Getting it on the road and drivable (Very easy this go round)[DONE]

    EDM Fog (been sitting on that for 4 years now)

    Future Plans Long Term:

    Because this only has 188,330 (at the time of this posting) I really don't want to swap anything into it just yet.

    F and F Type 2's

    Paint

    Prelude Rims

    That's about it for now, I just got her today for 740$. But I am really excited about it and it's something I have wanted for a few years now. And for once in my life I am not completely focused on a CB7. I still have my white coupe of course but that is currently on the back burner for now.

    I'll add to your future plans:

    Rust fix!

    Super super rusty haha. Manual wagons are super rare.

    Very keen to see how his turns out. Love me a wagon.
    sold! But here's my build thread for those interested.

      From what I have gathered so far the rust will be easy to handle. Replace all the doors (even the damn hatch it doesn't open). 2 rear QP's and front bumper. This will take some time. Just got her brakes done (lines had rusted through). She needs pads but to my surprise the car is in rather decent shape outside of the mega rust (came from VT). Plus I am sitting on some stuff already from my CB that will be making their debut for the first time in 5 years. Time to put it all into action now .

          Thank you so much, feels good to be 'home' again. Granted it's a CD (CE1), she has quite a bit of work ahead.


          She's got a leaky gas tank that will be replaced this Friday. I am also need a new rear hatch, and wanting to get some new front and rear subframes. Plus I am looking at the ROH and rear disc conversion.

              Any updates on this? Good progress so far on this wagon. I hardly ever see any and they are always autos, great find on this one.

                She has quite a few bugs to work out I have front end suspension parts for this, next to get a rear hatch and rear QP's. Nice to see a Native Montanan too

                    Looking good. Major rust there. Wow. At least you know what is in store. Have you been able to drive it? Road worthy?
