CB3 from Finland

[Audiojack]

So yeah, here's my scandinavian CB Got it in December 2011 and have been really happy with it. It was owned previously by a car mechanic, and I continue the tradition since I'm studying to become one

The car is pretty much stock, how it came from the factory. Some bits and pieces have fallen off along the 22 years of its life (about 169 000 miles, the odo is in km's), but I'm working on replacing everything.
(The driver side plastic strips for example were missing when I bought it, I got them yesterday and going to install them later..)

What I'm planning to do it in the near future, other than small mending, is lower it, possibly by means that will cause some of you heart attacks () and get some nicer wheel setup going on too. Also got some front lip ideas and maybe a project about doing black housing to the front lights (with the yellow "JDM" high beams too, maybe) once I manage to get meself another pair of front lights. (Don't want to ruin those since I still want to get through the local MOT inspections without comments about the lights.)


tl;dr a boring stock CB3 with nothing very interesting to come either

What are those things on the front bumper, in front of your lights? over all the car looks great, I see some rust on the rear passenger door by where the mudflaps go though. And those Honda rims are pretty sweet, I've never seen those.

Those black things on the bumber, in front of the headlights are called. (headlight washer)

Thanks! And yup, they're headlight washers, they're just missing their plastic covers (I have one of them in the glove compartment but the other one is badly broken).

This is also actually quite a rust free CB here in Finland, since we have a lot of snow and salt on the roads.
You see:

looks good really like that spoiler.

[Honda_Lady]

Looks good!! very clean for a car in Finland can't wait to see what you do to it.

[Tippey764]

looks good really like that spoiler.

Notice that he doesn't have a 3rd brake light?

Other countries had that brake light as a rare accessory for some reason. Most of them have that block off plate.

Looks really good considering weather conditions.

So is this a 90-91 lx?

Where is your headlights washer button located?

[RedFalcoln]

Ah I see, sorry for my ignorance(doesn't really snow in Los Angeles) and I think I've seen windshield wipers once on an Audi but that's it.

[cb3frompoland]

Very nice and clean car

In Europe we dont have such names like lx or ex etc.

Doesn't Europe have the electronically adjustable headlamps?

Thanks!

This is one of the earliest CB's made, first registered in January 1990. (6959th CB Accord off the line, checked from the identification number.)

And like cb3frompoland said, the models don't really use such names as EX, DX, or LX, but (again checking from the identification number) it is technically an EX model.

The headlight washer button is next to the seat heater buttons in the center console.

Doesn't Europe have the electronically adjustable headlamps?

I know mine doesn't!

Another Finnish member.

Welcome to cb7tuner.com man

Look up Robert (I think he's the only other member from Finland that is actively on here) Lindiz: 1993 Accord pretty cool guy as well.

Some really small update here...

Put these in the trunk, will do a better post later describing my installation in detail. (The car already has some Pioneer stuff in it so I'm not just putting a huge sub with stock speakers..)


Also a while ago some kids had done a raid in the parking lot and grabbed some badges with 'em from many cars. Luckily no other damage and nothing else taken. I already replaced it though.



Today, I'm gonna install these to the drivers side, as they were missing when I bought the car.. Cost 5 euros along with the badge. (That's 6,54 USD)



I think I'll do a better post later today after I go take some pics of the audio installments and install the panels!
