1996 Honda Accord LX 5MT - SOLD!​

Just found another one, Sage Green Metallic with 177k, 5-speed, non-smoker car, 0% rust - the way I like them. The only issue with this one that I have found is blown exhaust manifold gasket which is simple to fix, and of course cleaning and other small stuff. There is also a significant dent in driver's side rear door, and a small dent on driver's door from what appears to be a side-swipe. The car had sat for 7 months and visible corrosion on exhaust system just because we are by the seacoast, but NO rust! It will be fun taking off all them bumper stickers! :beer2:

1995 Honda Accord LX 5MT - SOLD!

Here goes another one. Got this one same day I sold the red one, really took a lot of coordination and sleepless driving but it was all done right on schedule. This one is Nightshade Gray Pearl, not sure on the % of the window tints, but it is a Florida car with 0% rust and corrosion. Runs and drives even with awesome Good Year tires, with the only real issue at this point being a weak head gasket - it blows serious white smoke, but still pulls hard when I drove it for the test drive. The other small thing with it is a small dent in left fender and missing corner light. Damn I love Maine, I'll let you guys guess the purchase price. Here are the photos:

THE STORY:

So I bought a 1995 Accord EX 5MT on 1/17/12, loaded, everything from a local chick.

- New All-Season Tires
- New Rotors
- New Brakes
- New Axles
- New Timing Belt (Not sure about water pump though)
- New Air Fresheners and girly horseback riding stickers all over

170,xxx on it.

Pretty damn clean for the $600 she asked for it. F22B1 engine, interior is in amazing shape especially for the year (leather).

Original Condition Pics:

First plan of action - clean every square inch of it inside and out (including engine bay), remove stickers, debadge, and remove the amber pieces in the tail lights :lolrun:.



- Nikita

Re: ★ Russianred's CD5 Project ★

You got this for only $600?!?!??! I got my cb7 for $500 and it is in very rough condition.(Stopped running the other day as a matter of fact)

I feel like i've been ripped off... Nice buy man, I love the way those CDs look lowered.

Re: ★ Russianred's CD5 Project ★

Haha thanks ^ You know I'm NEVER selling the 6GA :hihi:

It's too dear to me, as well as the community I am a part of.

Naw man, you got a good deal too, I just got lucky here. What happened to the CB7 to cause the issue with it not running?? I'll probably get springs for the CD5 eventually if I come across a deal.

Re: ★ Russianred's CD5 Project ★

^ Yup, this is probably going to be the build thread as well as ride thread too, as the Engine & Transmission mods section is dedicated to 6thgens only.

I'd love to stance it out with some nice wheels and daily it, so I can sell my 1999 Corolla and make some spare dough to put into my 6thgen build! :thumbup:

Slam it and blackhouse your headlights.

Oh wait, that's the 6GA way...
