88 Accord Does it have potential?

[CHINA_MIKE650]

i just recently bought a 88 Honda Accord and i payed $25 for it i want to fix it up and turbo charge it and convert the front end of it but im not to sure about either can someone give me some advice or help with this thanks

25$ huh.. depends, if it runs good just needs a few things, and doesnt have a TOO Bad of rust problem, fix it up its worth it, but if u need a whole new tranny or something dont bother.

for 25$ i think u should rebuild it it wont cost much and if u have ideas go with them

Have you checked them out? I used to lurk around there when I had my 89-Lx-i.

all cars have potential. it just depends on how much money you want to put into it. since you only got it for $25, and is in fairly good condition (no rust, chassis problems...), then you could make it fairly nice.

if it was me, i would definitely do it! if i had enough money to drop into it, i would have some nice plans for a 3rd gen. whatever you want to do man, good luck.

talk to bobafett, we are building a race car out of his 86 Lx i

full custom turbo setup and built to the tits a20

swap a b20a and turbo and you'll be sleeping on everyone. that combo should cost you no more then 4500, mayb more, mayb less depends what kind of parts you go with.

I would def. build it if i got a car for $25. I was gonna get an 89 accord with no reverse for free, that would have been nice but the guy ended up keeping it. I'd build it since you basically got it for free and have no money into it.

i can't make any suggestions unless i see it. but if you know it's not worth it then you probably wouldn't have even asked. good luck and try to post some pix bra.

build it, even if you do minor fixes, you can have a beater to dd or resell it for $ . I would always look for $25 cars when I was 10 so that I could drive them offroad.

[djcb]

oh that was daily driver not drunk drive for dd. but I guess whichever if it was that cheep

[shanleycb7]

u could alwayz build a b series and throw it in there...

there was a member here who had a 86 or 88 LXI and he installed a b16 in it it looked sweet too i tried searching for it but i think the guy either deleted the thread or its lost somewhere
