Picked this fine machine up with 241k on the clock and it runs like a dream. Paid 200 bucks for the ole bastard. 2.2 4cyl 5spd Accord 2 door. Gotta bust out the chicken wire and bondo, mix in a little spray foam and we're good to go for inspection. Power Steering has a apocalyptic leak in it, half tempted to just bypass it and run manual steering hehe then again parts are cheap :047:

I can already picture a back seat full of chainsaws and a cub cadet strapped to the roof

Holy crap! That looks like my old car, 2 door 1990 Accord and same red too. I drove mine for six months with the waterpump leaking all over. I would fill up the radiator before I left for work then stop half way home and fill it with water again. It still ran strong when I sold it for $500.

Nice. I have had about a dozen of those things. The 94- body style is faster and gets better mpg but you can beat the early 90s cars for years and many miles with just basic maintnenace.
