Default $100 car for new project

Just to give you a little background, I'm obsessed with Accords. I've owned lots of other cars bt the 4th gen Accord is by far my favorite. I'm just weird like that. I've owned 4 and just picked up another one for $100!!!

It needs some work. I have a hood, fenders, bumper, headlights, and other parts needed to fix it just laying around. Only thing I will need to buy is a windshield.








It is going to be getting this motor and trans out of one of my other Accords (converting it to 5 speed)



The details on the turbo setup are available in other threads on this site.

Should have it all done within a few months.

Yeah, I did the wire tuck and removed quite a few other things in the process. Here's a link with details on it: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=34485

I love these Accords and it sure makes for cheap building since I have parts all over the place. I can strip these things down to a bare frame in matter of hours.

Chris- where are you at? I have several spare F22's laying around if you need one. I'd let one go for cheap if you can come get it? Hell, if you're close enough to VA I'd be willing to take a drive and help you get that ---- done....might be quicker (and cheaper) to drop in a different motor than to do the bottom end work.
