Default Another Near Mint Find!!! 91 HB STD...Explicit Speed Next Project Car...F22/F23 SOHC Vtec...

Well my father bought this lil car at a 2 bit used car lot way out in the sticks 2 days ago... they had a total of 10 cars at the lot lol...well if you don't remember I have had some past experience finding mint EF's from my crx also on a 2 bit used car lot a year or so ago...The 91 HB STD 4spd white has 160k miles on it...we got it down to $2k out the door what a steal...interior is mint...blue...we get it home and start examining the engine bay EVERYTHING is brand NEW...and OEM down to the NEW valve cover and intake...and timing belt plastic...Engine we believe has no more then 5k miles on it...New everything distributor...all plastic in the bay etc...My father bought some rims and tires last night couldn't refuse the offer $400 for Enkies 15" with Kumho ecasta tires on them brand new no knicks 100 miles on them 2 weeks old...I get too looking notice the car was leaning a lil low with the stock tires...it has fairly new Tokico blue HP shocks haha and H-R 1.9" F and 1.8" R sport OE springs...onto the pictures

Future Plans:
We already have our H22 crx so we will show case the other engine either F22 vtec or F23 vtec with our motor mount kit. (Big Block SOHC)

Past mint EF experience:



91 HB STD 4spd

how did you not notice the engine before you bought it? most people would take a look at the car before they buy it.

Not to rain on your parade, but I doubt EVERYTHING in the engine bay is new. somebody would be an IDIOT to pay dealer prices for all that stuff.

It's probably just been kept really well. An engine bay detail can also do wonders. All the stickers in the engine bay in my car look brand new, and they're certainly not.

Nice looking car.

No, he has you beat cause he ain't a ******* douchebag like you that no one likes, go back under your rock.

Nice find, did you travel in time to 1991 and buy that thing of the lot? Damn that's clean.

Not a fan of the F series, but it's your project!

you'd be surprised. when i worked for honda, small car dealers would buy these cars for cheap at the auctions, go to honda and buy a lot of new OEM parts, and still sell it for a decent profit.

Looks like a very nice hatch. I would not to an F in the car but I am also not the titled owner so good luck on your endeavor. And if your business is to show off your mounts and stuff then go for it.

You should have picked up that blue civic shuttle hiding out back as well.

Wouldn't a sunroof work properly on a "mint" vehicle? <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by STREETWERKZ &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">

Somebody went in there and bought ALL new plastic for the engine bay on this car car? I doubt it. Enough new stuff for a brand new motor!? And they paid dealer prices? Anybody that flips these cars knows how popular they are and how easy these kinds of parts are to find. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but they wouldn't be wasting their profit dollars on these parts. MAYBE on a distributor, because some people just refuse to go aftermarket on those kinds of parts. I've seen those guys come into my work and refuse to buy any kind of aftermarket part, so I know they exist.

If that car really does have all that new stuff in the engine bay, I can't imagine what kind of horrible profit they settled for!
