ghowell6 : 1991 Accord SE

[ghowell6]

1991 Honda Accord SE
Bought it in July 2010, sister wrecked in in November. Hydroplaned on the wet freeway S of Portland, ran smack in to a Saturn. The CB got the short end of the stick, having the entire front passenger side fender crushed, from the front of the car to the wheel. A sum of money too painful to say later, the car was fixed and rolling once again.
Mods:
ENGINE: All stock, F22A6 engine.
EXTERIOR: Factory splash guards
INTERIOR: Black leather was sadly stolen out of it before I owned it (Apparently around 2005 according to the rebuilt sticker on the door) Had an EX cloth interior installed but I put better condition seats in.
SUSPENSION/WHEELS: Rolling on stock wheels, have some Yokohama tires on right now. I have a set of ’92-’93 coupe wheels with studded snows for when it actually snows. The first photo has some aftermarket Millennium wheels, which were removed, sold and put on ’92-’93 OEM wheels.
AUDIO/ELECTRONICS: Kenwood speakers in front and back, have the big 6x9’s in the back. Pioneer DEH-2200UB head unit
Variable speed wiper mod, currently about 1/2 done. Still need the A11 ICU.
FUTURE PLANS: Keep it mostly stock while I’m in school, probably mod it more when I get out of college. Maybe some factory fogs, want to do the CD5 map light mod, convert interior lighting to LED. Do the civic socket bumper light mod. I have the parts, just need to install. Currently have a Viper 350 alarm that will be installed soon. I think CD5 rear markers would be a sweet mod too, still debating about that. I think an H-swap and 5 speed would be sick, but I’d also like to pick up a CB7 coupe and have that be a car to really work on.


A light dusting of snow. Put the studded snows on just for the heck of it.


Current.

looking good nice and clean.

sucks to hear that the leather got stolen. would have looked sweet in the car.

[ghowell6]

Thanks man. Yeah, I was really disappointed when I learned that SE’s were supposed to have leather. It still has black handles for the hood, trunk and gas, as well as the e-brake. Also has the leather steering wheel, and gray sunroof cover.
I like the leather steering wheel for sure. Maybe I’ll find a donor SE someday and do the full swap. There’s only about 5 SE’s in Portland that I’ve seen, including mine.

Only the 91 silver SE's have black leather btw.

Yeah, that’s what I’ve figured. Out of curiosity, did they sell the ’91 SE in a different color than the Solaris Silver? I know the ’93 SE came in a few different colors, but I’ve only seen the Solaris Silver & black interior combination.

[Hostile]

Yeah, the color is Britney blue pearl I believe. It has tan leather. Your Car looks clean. Makes me miss my old solaris silver se.

[c91bse7]

Alright another Solaris silver se , sucks that your leathers gone but looks like you have a good start

[crazymikey]

w00t another one! Gee Nolan, with those seat covers I've had sitting around for you forever, maybe this guy could use 'em instead.

[stretch JDM]

Good looking SE. That first pic had me at hello..

[slammed91cb7]

nice and clean

[ghowell6]

Thanks guys! I was getting gas last night and the guy there really liked my CB. It’s basically stock but looks good for the age. Yeah, I kinda wish I hadn’t sold those Millennium wheels, they looked pretty good on the car and I liked the way they rode but the roads around here in Portland are pretty rough, so the stock wheels are a lot more comfortable. The tires needed to be replaced and I didn’t wanna pay the premium for them either.

What are these seat covers you speak of?
I’d be cool to have front seat covers. My sister and I train horses, and the interior gets kind of dirty going to and from the barn. Especially when your horse has rolled out in the pasture and wants to say hi.
The front passenger’s seat I got out of a ’91 was probably the cleanest I’ve seen. I traded the old interior for a set of factory wheels, sold those later. The interior that came with it was pretty meh, and had a green tint to it.

[S.W.A.T]

nice SE bro my cousin has the same one, he got it for a steal
of $1200 bucks with OEM fogs, keys and records from 1994 and
mint interior!.

I bought a 91 SE for $250 last year as a parts car. I stripped it of all it's SE goodness, and I sold the black leather covers to cb91se7, but due to some financial issues, I've still yet to ship them to him. I refunded his money last week as he was in a financial emergency, but they're still his.

I have a set of SE coupe ivory leather, but the coupe seats are different from the sedans.

mikey if he ever says he does not want them i call dibs on the rear cover.
