Default '87 Accord for free.

So at my job today one of my co-workers and i were talking hondas............. Long story short lol, he has a third gen accord 2 door hatch that he is willing to give me... I'm not new to the whole owning two cars at one time thing... But an 87' accord... for free?

im thinking about passing this one up... he described the car as in terrible mechanical shape. but body wise a few nicks and nacks nothing major.I have to think about this.. what do you guys think. and what would you do if you were in my shoes.. Mind you.. Im still in college.

I could just imagine the dreams im going to have about this tonight.

I would probably pass it up, sounds like it will take alot of money to get it on the road. Actually, its prob a d*ck move, but I would take it then get the $150 at the scrap yard for it

word lol, I know its prob not the best idea, but its free cash lol.

"why does the tow truck say J&J Salvage on the side" that way you dont even have to pay to have it towed to your house, just have the junkyard pick it up at his house lol

if it drives just take it for a beater. I can be a good time. and if the guy asks just say it broke down and you had to get rid of it.... he doesn't need to know how it broke down :-P
