Thank you! I finally ordered my one piece hood, so I should be getting that within a month or so!

FINALLY got through the whole thread.

This gives me lots of thought of what and how to plan mine, with lots of good info and helpful responses.

 

 

Just picked up a 85 1500s that's only got 135k on it (but has been sitting for almost 10yrs)

 

I've got all these parts laying around and thought of building a GSR with Dual carbs but don't know enough

of the later Honda engines if that can even be done or just go with a b20 with the carbs. (im used to the late 70-80s)

This is one that I had back in the late 80s or early 90's

Ugh. Logging on after so many years is very bitter sweet. I was in my garage looking my Crx over a bit (still have it, haven't driven it in years) and I got sentimental and decided to sign on again. Wish I hadn't put it to the side for so long, but life has a funny way of shifting your attention to different things as you grow older. I'd like to get back to some of my auto projects soon, hopefully this site will inspire me once again.

Anyone else still on here?

Am I here? No way, I'm much too busy driving around in my new NSX... Oh wait, I don't have one. Yeah, I'm here.

Life certainly has a way of messing with even the best laid plans.

I find the older I get I drive my Chevrolet truck with good air conditioning more and more. But when I hop in my CRX no matter where I stop I always get a thumbs up or somebody asking me about it. It makes me feel good and I remember why I drive it

Not to mention every kid under 10 thinks it's a DeLorean.

I know exactly what you mean. Not only is my new Silverado luxurious, but I now have two kids so often times I have no choice as to which vehicle to drive.

I still have my Crx and it's still in working order, but I never get time to drive it, let alone continue with the modifications I had planned for it. Even my J32 2000 Civic that WAS my family vehicle got pushed to the side.

But, there is still time. I still fully intend to complete every vehicle I have. I know these cars are older and more scarce than ever, but I really hope this site makes a bit of a comback. I could sure use the motivation.

No kidding, the DFW craigslist used to be lousy with 1/3g's and now I haven't found one in months of my (sporadic) looking.

Yeap, Still here, now a grandfather. Still driving the B20Z Civic from time to time (not enough, but the RS is just as fun with way more comfort). We'll see what is powering it this Sept.
