How much did you buy your CB7 for? And how much have you spent on it?

[TeamAccord]

No better deal than $325 for my 91 Accord EX in a local junkyard. They actually didn't want to sell this one to me (said they "had more in this one" th an another). The day after I got the car, I ripped up my carpet, and found a 10K gold bracelet on the driver side... I guess they were right. So far, I've spent an estimated $947 on it. I've only bought some minor things too and plan much much more as I'm just getting started on this project. (Hint: I don't even have any pics yet). Here's a short list of what I've got so far:

• F1 Fenders - $135
• Full Body Kit - $600
• Interior Carpet - $128
• Racing Steering Wheel & Hub - $45
• Alarm/Keyless System - $60
• Spark Plug & Wire Kit - $65
• Exhaust Headers - $60

Like I said, I've got lots to come. I'll try to keep up to date pics on my progress all the way up to the finished project. I hope to get everything done by next summer. I'm sure I'll be accessing these forums for help along the way. Peace!

$3000 a little over 5 years ago with 157k

Car hasn't exactly had an easy life, been hit many times but I have to say it has been a great car otherwise. Only let me down once when the ignitor died, stupid $40 part.

Just normal stuff...
Timing belt - $500
Brakes - couple sets of pads and rotors.
Axles - 1 on each side.
tires - 2 sets, 3rd set going on soon.
3 sets of plugs
2 dis cap / 3 rotors, one burnt up real fast never did figure out why
1 ignitor
main relay, free got it from a parts car.
spark plug tube seals
decklid, got rearended.

Just shy of 250k miles, like I said a little beat up but she runs 70-80mph for 60 miles a day to and from work. Doesn't burn a drop of oil either.

When my late gramps bought the CB1 back in 1990, she was 65k of our money

Taking into account the exchange rate back then, our 65k at the time equates to around about 30K USD. (yes i know, bloody expensive)

Now, the CB1 has a market value of about 3K USD.

The same amount i paid for the complete swap back in 03, labour, parts, paint (06)

[90-JDMCB7]

paid 500 bucks for mine....great freakin deal man!!!!!

...really lost track of how much money spent on mods
