88 guy, 95 accord
Hey all, I finally got some time away from work and decided to waste it on the internet. Well I found this place so I don't think today was a total loss.
Hmm, where to start.
I live in PA but I was born in Massachusetts.
My first car was a 95 stratus that gave me problems out the butt.
My first honda was a 96 civic 2dr in excellent shape. Unfortunately It got totaled by a ford E250. I was looking at the accord I own now before I bought the civic but I didn't like it, something gave me bad car vibes.
Well my friend bought the accord and we were going to try and fix it and re-sell it but I bought it off my friend.
I like the accord but its been giving me its share of troubles.
Someone backed into my driver side front quarterpannel and his insurance company gave me 1,343 for the repairs. I think a lot of that money came from the detail work. See someone stripped the "dont bump my door" molding off of of the car and instead of buying the touch up paint to paint over the body work they painted the car smurf blue(I kid you not).
Well now I'm going about the long process of restoring the car. I will be popping in and out at times here. I look forward to getting to know some of the members.

Thanks for the vote of confidence rice, I hope to get some pictures up here soon so you can all see my smurfmobile >.> .
Unlike all the kids around here I'm putting my money under the hood and in between the wheels. When I'm done the car wont look like much but it will sure drive with the best.
If anyone has any tips on the F22 to H22 swap, please let me know. I hear its supposed to be an easy one but my head is already swimming from what I have read.
How many other 5th gens do we have on here?
