Thanks, Bryan - these look pretty good so must have been kept under roof. But using the pull knobs will help me avoid damaging the lips, anyway...

That is awesome!!! Thank you very much!!

Not a CL score, but will be posting on CL to sell…… tires



With the recent snow/ice we have gotten last year and now this year, resulting in 20-22” depending on where on the property I measured…… I needed better man meat on the green bomber. LOL
The PiTA rub, is under the white fluffy stuff, is 2” of slush that packs to 1/2” solid ice if driven on.

Howdy!t be in luck

It was a retail store that was closing up shop. Over by Fair Oaks Blvd, x Marconi. It was a few months ago, I just forgot to post the score. If I come across another store, I’ll let you know. They were selling everything, so you might

How many are you needing? I have a buddy who picked up a bunch and he might be willing to part with some.

Cheers

Ran by our local Habitat for Humanity thrift store to try and get some more pants for my Mom. I think I got some that will fit. I brought a pair of hers along as a reference.

While there found a couple cool ball caps, a killer knife, and a pair of Crocs that will come in handy.

All for just over 20 bucks!

Here's the pants. Mom's are the ones on the far right:


The Crocs:


Ball caps:


And knife - razor sharp!

At the curb today found 3 big bags of bird seed. A small epiphone amp and a few cool kids toys. I think there was more there but it was picked over. Still 100 bucks easy worth of stuff cant beat it.

Brother got this $400. 03 accord from work. Apparantly they mis-diagnosed it as a bad head gasket. Kid said hell no i dont want it anymore. There was no oil in it and low on coolant. So it was overheating and foam in the radiator. We got it home checked it out and it seemed ok. Filled up the fluids and bled the coolant it seems fine. He is going to daily it. Clean car from nyc.

^^^That's cool!
Those 4-cyl were known for using oil because of ring problems. Run some marvel mystery oil in it and keep an eye on the dip stick he should be fine.

I think about 160k were probably going to do the timing belt that has around 60k on it. Cars downstate are pretty clean i guess they dont need to use much salt if any. There is one spot of rust on the rear flare on the other side but otherwise clean even underneeth

If you don't have any service records on it, I'd suggest doing a drain and fill on the trans too. Never hurts and might help the trans work a little longer.
What model is it? LX or ? Nope, EX since it has the 'roof. Sorry.

Yeah, they had the 'roof too, I forgot.
That will be a nice car for that kind of money, especially if the interior isn't all torn up or worn out.
