96 Accord ?'s
Hey all,
I'm going down to look at a 96 Accord with 98K miles on it tomorrow (or today if you are east coast) at the local dealer. Is there anything in particular that I should look out for? I'm hoping to trick it out a bit as it will be my daily driver, but I wonder... Is there support for a 10 year old car, if I need the parts?
Thanks, exHemi

RE: 96 Accord ?'s
some things to be aware of
Brakes are comming due
inspect CV joint boots, transmission fluid or if manual clutch movement and oil, drive it and make sure that everything is in working order.
ASK THEM IF THE T-BELT HAS BEEN DONE IF NOT RUN FORREST RUN as it was due at least 8K ago.
take care to honda dealer or independent mechanic and get a pre buy inspection done.

timing belt. every part you could ever need is available, you could start with just a body and order everything else you need. dont neccessarily run if the belt hasnt been done. just subtract the amount it would cost from the selling price plus some and then get it done right away. welcome to the site
