I had a 1991 Prelude Si after college and I loved it. I got tired of getting stuck in the snow in Chicago (when my office was downtwon) and sold it for $1200. Bought a Jeep Cherokee...I still miss the Prelude.

I've been watching the Classifieds for a nice example for commuting and then passing it on to one of my sons as they get older. Never could find one unmolested and not riced out!

You're not too far from me, quaz, maybe you'd be interested in some Fuchs and cash? I'll shoot you an e-mail.

Every time I see a car painted in flat black I ask myself, WTF were they thinking?

That whole rebellious rat rod flat black thing was cool, for about 10 minutes. IMHO of course.

So here was the car last week when I dropped it off.




Tonight I got a chance to drop by and see progress and it just got out of the booth and was partly reassembled. The rest of the parts are at my house. It turned out pretty good, from what it started as.

The body isn't perfect, but it is shiny red!

I like the ghia better.

That thing would look sharp with 15" wheels off an integra

I had an 89 Prelude (same body style as quaz). Completely stock, no rice - man I loved that car. I wish I still had it, very well built.

I have to say it turned out pretty nice. Hopefully the color and shiny paint will attract a buyer. It still has some issues, but what do you expect for a $3k car these days?
