Picking up another Honda. LOL

Post by Mazkid »

Picking this thing up. It's a '97 Civic Coupe EX auto. 202,000 miles.

It was towed in as a trade, didn't run. Yeah, it didn't run because 2 of the plug wires were broken. Took the wires off the Del Sol and tried it...fired right up. :D

The radiator was very cracked, replaced that(thanks JustRob). Drove the car around Thursday night and decided to spend today detailing it...really needed it!

Gotta get a stock axle back for it...and I need to put in a new rear deck/3rd brake light, factory door speaker grills, stock airbox, and an airbag module...have it all except the muffler.

A/C is cold! Everything works except the driver's door lock is kinda screwy. But it works!

If you decide you need a different dash pad to get rid of the nastiness by the passenger airbag, let me know. The 99 I have has the lighter gray interior just like yours.

Nice find, nice price.

Thanks guys. I don't expect to keep getting deals like this, but who knows? It's nice for sure...and I'm definitely privillaged to have em and the ability to keep them at the dealership. :)

Yeah, the dash nastiness sucks but I don't feel like messing with it. I'll let ya know if I change my mind though!

i have seen this car before at my work... that person that had it before was a tool. and would always rev his engine and drop it in to drive as he was leaving.

thank you for taking it away!

LOL No problem, my pleasure!

It seems to have survived the tool's wrath really well. It drives nice and doesn't seem to have any transmission issues.
