Default 1982 Honda Prelude resto

Hello,
I acquired this vehicle with a cracked block three years ago and finally got around to having it FIXED.
I have been having much trouble locating parts for this car.
What I specifically need is a windshield, front air dam, sunroof motor and radio *****.
It has been a very difficult experience so far as I think there was a half-year 1982.5 so I need 79-81 parts.
Can anyone tell me if the car is Arctic Silver or St Moritz Silver? Another 1982.5 thing.
Thanks very much and looking forward to being a part of the community here with my first Honda.
Leon

this is officially the first time I've ever said this: Go to preludepower dot com. you will get much better results asking there. You're the first person I've ever seen on here posting about restoring a 2g prelude. Or is that the 1g?

Post up some pictures and we can see what generation you are truely dealing with here.

I would also suggest the other site, but it has been extremely slow over there, after they put HUGE password restrictions in place. I have logged on twice in the last year. But there was a larger following for the older models that was active there compared to here.

no kidding man. I havent logged into my 10 year old PP account in years because they just randomly blocked my password and i dont have access to the old email account to set up a new one.

agreed though, youre going to find much much better resources over there as far as 2/3 gen preludes go.

thanks to all for replying. If you look at my account, I haven't posted much here, you can find my thread from three years back when I was trying to sell it, many photos of the car there. It's definitely a FIRST gen, but being a 1982 I'm finding things like, maybe Arctic Silver was only a second gen color, maybe some first gen 82s were sprayed arctic silver, really not sure. But I'll definitely check out that site this weekend.

Bump for I have been accepted to grad school and need cash.

As driven by Eva Mendes in "The Place Beyond the Pines" It's the restored, running and driving, all-original '82 Prelude.
