1983 Honda Accord sedan.
Description
Up for sale / bid is one 1983 Honda Accord.This vehicle has:
5 speed manual.Has no rust through spots.Fairly new parts.... head, clutch, oil gaskets (incl. main seal), radiator.Fresh ball shift lever seat & muffler.No smoking or leaks.5 OEM factory rims.Moon/sunroof -(w/removable/ retracting shades (cracked...needs gluing), luggage rack, 3rd brake light,CRUISE CONTROL(never used it though..may not function) pioneer am/fm cd w/remote, rear doors (can be set to open externally only) child lock option,Much more to appreciate, Solid car, rare in this condition. Southern car, so all but no rust. 35 year old car has typical quirks...not perfect. Everything works though. ..can't say for sure on cruise controlA fine example of 2nd generation honda.Museum quality IMHO.
NOW the flaws:car runs fine and strong, but stalls at times (been sitting) was not doing before parked. Feels like it just needs a good driving...or idle it up.
No power steering (never connected the lines to find leak). Drove without.No ac...the compressor is missing.
Driver side tail lamp is from a hatchback...doesn't line up perfectly, (have old one missing red lens).
Been sitting on tires..they are good but I would change at least (front) two, if not all to match. New spare.Sun fading on rear headrests...paint oxidation on roof...bumpers, (put Polish on, looks good)Fender bender (rear) 2013, (rear bumper replaced)...but incorrect tail lamp...have to look hard to see.
Headlamps work but water in high beams.Missing (bottom) steering column plastic, Ash tray mount (have tray). driver door handle broken...still usable, just have to pull bottom of handle. HTF parts.
The previous owner babied this car...the only problem when purchased was main seal ...fixed (and power steering/AC). He had changed and serviced virtually every thing on the car, and had several invoices / receipts to prove it. Not sure but I believe he was the second or third owner. I will update tag and insure shortly. Title wasn't receivedbefore I registered it, so a bill of sale will be given...car is currently registered to me 2017 taxes paid.
Any and all questions or comments welcome and will be posted for others to see.
Thank you for looking.
