Hi there honda tech this is my first thread. The vehicle I have picked up is a 1991 honda accord ex with all the bells and whistles lol I bought it with 75000 original miles. I began replacing a few small missing peices and also renewing the look of the car. Dull paint and needing a little tune up I have spent nice time maintaning this vehicle and enjoying. I do my best to keep the miles off of it but it is an enjoyable little car. I will be starting a build thread for my built f20b 97 ex coupe soon so I can not wait to see what people think of that also 1991 Accord aka-Frankie






I will post more pictures of the vehicle as the next few days approach take it easy honda tech

Thanks! I do my best in my free time to keep her clean she needed alot of brightening when I bought it and I will say I got this car for a STEAL! I am at 79k

Thinking of buying some wheels here soon I've enjoyed driving it all stock and have received a few compliments in traffic a bit surpized I was would love to get input from other users what would you do if this was yours?

So what, the car is stolen? Or is "STEAL" the new slang term for 400 bucks? Kind of how a "buck" is one dollar, a "dub" is twenty, a "yard" is one hundred....?? Not sure why you're keeping the price you paid such a tight lipped secret. Even if you purchased it for 50 bucks, it wont really matter to most of us.

What do you intend to do with this car? So far, this doesn't seem to be leaning towards a build at all. The car itself is very clean and looks great for its age. You wont find many 91 Accords on the road in this kind of condition. Aftermarket wheels wouldn't do this car any good without lowering it. You're better off maintaining this one in its current state.

And as far as i see the section is "appearance build thread" the appearance of this car was not the way it appears in the photos when I got it. I have also come to the conclusion it is enjoyable just the way it is. I will post some updates soon of the few fixed bits and pieces and some small extras.

Small update going to get my door handle bezel this weekend and got inspected/emission/ tailpipe test in August new tires test pipe radiator ball joint and she's ready to go! Doing the brakes in the next few weeks going to replace everything because of the extra time needed to do brake jobs in these accords. Take care HT

Really clean start, im currently building a 92 ex black coupe, being yours is automatic i would just do some coilovers and wheels. Its really about how involved you want to get though. Nice seeing some appreciation of the cb chassis in this thread. Good luck

No, he said, "inspected/emission/ tailpipe test." Nothing about a test pipe. He means he's getting the exhaust and tailpipe (muffler) inspected.

Anyway, super clean Accord. Personally, the only thing I'd do to it would be a manual conversion, but only if it could be done so perfect, that no one would ever know it was converted, haha.

Thanks for the comments guys I am just going to continue to keep it clean and working on finding the right wheels for it no rush. Lol my 97 ex civic is my project so I tend to stray away from spending money on modding this one especially since it is an auto. Wish it was a 5 speed sometimes. Reply my shop did put a test pipe in so I could complete my tailpipe test. Reply with some updates soon starting to look around at the other cb7 threads now
