ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    My new CB9 Opal Green

    My first car in college was a brand new CB7 which i totaled within 6 months.

    Fast forward 22 years, I have always been looking in getting back to a Opal Green CB7 or CB9.

    I was able to find one in Sacramento for about $1300.

    2. New front brake rotor and pads
    3. Power steering pump and oil pump replaced.
    4. Fuel filter changed
    5. All 4 windows regulator

    To be done-
    1. New OEM front struts and rear struts
    2. A/C leak fix

    Interior-
    1. Replaced missing trim panels on the lift gate- found the last brand new tan interior from vintage parts
    2. Replace the missing left side trim and speaker cover
    3. Full steam and interior cleaning
    4. New Pioneer Double DIN DVD receiver
    5. Replaced all door lock so it can be on same key

    While I can see the very cool Wayne's Word AMC in the background you need to resize your images.

          Thank you all.

          1. I will resize the image later tonight. Busy at work.
          2. This car and color is very special to me. I special ordered a new car in similar color too.

          The car will be back either friday or saturday. Apparently my window channel guide is also bad and needs to be replaced.

          I will post more pictures once the car is back with painted roof rack and new paint job.

          I decided not to keep the side trim black. It will be painted body color.

            I am finally back from my trip to Asia and car has been repainted.

            Took it to smog yesterday and interior detail.

            Here is the first picture of the exterior during smog. Will post more picture once the weather gets better.
