Default saved a 93 accord from the crusher

....first, hello....
I just "acquired" a 93 accord for my daughter (she is in her second year of high school). The car was being taken to the local wrecker yard to be scrapped, I knew the driver and towing company owner and was able to save it from being scrapped. It (now) runs and of course needs some TLC....I have about 6 months to get this safe and clean for a high schooler's first car.
I am not a stranger to Honda, I have always swore by them and was actually looking for one for my daughter's first car. My wife and I inherited a 82 Accord from her father after he passed....needless to say we drove it for years until my wife graduated college. After the typical, brakes, clutch (my wife never drove a stick), exhaust..and a used transmission...we traded it in with over 376,000 miles and the thing still rode great!
I am not a professional mechanic, but I used to restore classic autos for a living. I am sure you guys will get tired of seeing my posts .....I hope to be able to pick some brains here and get this vehicle done. I will in turn will be able to add and assist with what experience and knowledge I have...
Thanks.....Rob
