My Soon To Be New(Old) Daily Driver

Well we are trading our work truck to my brother since he needs a truck. In return I pretty much have a new daily driver. It's an 86 Honda Accord LXi. My brother bought it from this elderly couple who he worked for. They kept it well maintained for it to be such a old car. Engine is perferct with over just about 304,000 miles, maybe more or less. One thing I think I need though is a TPS because it seems to be idling weird. Interior I will work on as well as exterior. Esp. Exterior because the people he bought it from were elderly and the ladys husband got confused and drove through their yard, and bottomed out the car and dinged it up a little bit. Besides that though, it will be great for just scooting to an from work, picking up parts, and going to and from college. My truck gets some rest. Enjoy.






Oh yeah these are the rims lol. They have some roadrash and one of the has 2 welded spots on the inside where someone has fixed it, and has a cut/welded spot right before the 4th lugnut. I plan on redoing them eventually though. I actually really like them on this car. I think they set off the grey. I know they are Giovanna but don't know what model. They are 18x7.5 so thats pretty decent. If you know what model they are or know where I can get some centercaps let me know. I haven't really done any research on em yet though cause we dont have the car fully.

^ It's gonna be a lot nicer. After steam cleaning and removing/checking all interior pieces/carpet. Im gonna start on the outside probably. Got to sand and paint front and rear bumper, buff out some scratches, definitely remove that 90s license plate, and do some routing maintenence. After that, I'll be satisfied for a while.

It's kinda fun in the accord. But being a sedan with no mods, just makes it like a grocery getter. The 94 is the sound machine.
