Hi everyone! For close to 5 years I have been looking all over for the cleanest 1st Gen Accord I could find....why you ask? Because my father had a 78' Accord when he and my mother got married and I've always had a picture of them with his Accord, and I've always wanted on.

I've had many classic cars over the years, but mostly vintage BMW, as can be seen here on my website...

www.klubvintage.com

I finally came across this wonderful and completely stock 1980 Accord lx with only 72k original miles and I had to have it. So far she's got a few kinks to work out but is wonderful to drive. My plan is stay JDM and firstly get it clean enough to eat off, then I want to do fender mirrors, frenched high's, Weber upgrade (32/37 or maybe a 40 I have lying around) header back custom exhaust, wheel and tires, re-upholster the seats and rip off that terrible tint.

My question is where are the 1st Gen owners/ clubs/ forums/ resources...anything?? I've found many for the civics but not for the Accords, why is that?

Here are a few pics I took after a light detail:

Very nice looking Accord.
The 1stgencivic forum has a nice Accord section.
Just not as much appreciation for them as the early Civics.

Thanks everyone. I'm pretty excited about it. I'll need to head over to the 1stgencivic forum I guess.
