Ok well i got discussing my past cars with a friend of mine and well i now know alot more than i did back when i first started out and me being young still i know theres alot more to be learned....but Heres the whole point of this thread....
If there was a way to know what you do now about cars and such which one of your past cars would you most likely wish you had back in your garage/backyard under the tarp etc etc....
Gotta say id probaly prefer to get back my 1986 honda prelude 2.0si the only reason i ever got rid of that thing was due to it being a automatic....it never let me down at all and was imaculate not to mention had flipup headlights ftw.....but yea also had all disc brakes sunroof power everything, i mean for a 1986 honda had this thing down pat.....
Here are some pics of my old gal.....
Now if i still had it with the knowledge i know now i would of done a 5spd swap to her and probaly would still be driving it. probaly now the only other prelude id drive is a 4ws one....
And what happened to her you ask
Well i sold it to a kid down the street who opted me to first work on it since i knew the car in and out. i fabricated a cold air intake for it from some volvo intercooler piping i had laying around. and the next week he comes back with the springs chopped and the rims painted black and all this other crap.....well ended up grinding the exhaust so much he paid 700 to get teh whole thing replaced. then when one of the headlight motors stopped working he sold it to a kid who ended up painting it flat black, beat teh crap outa it ran from the police in it left it there and took off thinking he got away scot free heh stupid kid after that lost track of her probaly in the junk yard or already scrapped....too bad was a great car.....
