Default Pics/Video of my 1991 Wagon Beater

I was given a 1991 Honda Civic Wagon by a family friend a few moths ago an use it as my daily driver. She just turned over 260k miles and has never had any engine/trannsmission problems or any others. She's got the typical rust around the rear wheels wells which my dad and I are going to turn into our first bodywork experience. I'l also going to sand it down and have it repainted by a friend. She's stock as of now minus some budget audio stuff, but will soon have ITR shocks and Neuspeed Race springs, as soon as I get some 88CRX/ITR LCAs. I'm also looking for some cheap 15" rims or steelies to mount the Dunlop W-10s I took off my ITR. If you have any please IM me. She's a blast to drive and you can't argue with 260k miles, doesn't burn any oil, and gets 32 MPG. Later on down the road when the engine finally goes I'll prob swap in a newer VTEC SOHC D Series, and try to use a Greddy Turbo kit, I can't believe how inexpensive the Greddy turbo kits are for the D series. Anyway just though I'd throw up some pics for anyone interested in the Wagon Right click, save as for the video.

Here are the videos I took last night. The second one's a bit dark, but still my favorite. They were taken with a digital camera and if you ever wondered what a D15 sounded like with the muffler off, now you know. Picked up some power past 4.5k as well, the piping on the muffler was tiny.

It really is amazing how well it moves for a 1.5 liter with 260k miles. The previous owner put all highway miles on it, and changed the oil every month. I should call him and thank him for that
