This is a 1989 Honda Prelude SI, manual transmission car. It is not running. The car has been stored under cover for a long time. We stored it in our carport while we were out of state. When we returned, something had built a nest in the timing belt. When we cranked it, it jumped time. We shut it down immediately. I replaced the head with a rebuilt head from National Cylinder head. The car ran fine with the rebuilt head. It did smoke on start up. The cylinder head came sealed in shrink wrap but it was obvious it had been on the shelf a long time. The ASE mechanic that helped me do the work felt a valve stem seal had dried out as the smoking was getting less every day we drove it. We had to go back out of state so the car sat again for a long period. When we returned there was a major problem with the electrical system. Something had gone to ground. Even with the charger on, it will not hold enough juice to light the headlights. Everything but the AC and the antenna retractor was operational when we stored it. The AC components are all there, but it was not operational. I have tried to show every defect in my photos, I have more pic's if you request them. Please ask questions, I'll do my best to answer them. There is rust in three places on the drivers side, specifically, a hole in the rocker panel behind the front wheel, two rust bubbles on the door, rust bubbles directly in front of the rear wheel. There is a scuff on the drivers side rear bumper corner. There are tears in the drivers side interior door panel where it closes. There is a small tear in the same place on the passenger door. The skylite is cracked but does not leak. There is a repaired chip in the windshield low in the center, not in your line of view. The undercarriage is solid most of the factory rustcoat is still in tact. When we replaced the head we did the timing belt and water pump. Also put a new fuel pump in it at that time. All the fluids were changed at that time, but they have sat in the vehicle now for over a year. The tires have decent tread but they should be replaced. As you can see from the undercarriage pics it need some exhaust work. There are not many of this body style classic Preludes left. This car needs lots of work but could be a great car for the right person. This car is sold AS IS, AS SHOWN, with no warranty expressed or implied. Please ask all the questions you can. I will be happy to answer them and provide more pics if you need them. Back around 2006 the car had a very minor accident. Bent the Front bumper support. Because of the age of the car, the insurance adjuster wanted to total the car. We disputed the action and won. We have the clear title on the car, and the body shop repair bill to repair the minor bumper support damage and the bumper skin.

2016 Honda Civic Type R shows sometimes the grass really is greener [w/video]

Wed, Mar 4 2015

The newly unveiled Honda Civic Type R at the Geneva Motor Show seems like a cruel trick being played on North American hot hatch fans. Even if the European model's oblong shape and massive wing don't make for the pinnacle of automotive beauty, it's hard to question the vehicle's performance capability, especially after the 7:50.63 lap around the Nurburgring Nordschleife. The heart of the Civic Type R is a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder pumping out 306 horsepower and 295 pound-feet with a six-speed manual. The combination is reportedly good for a sprint to 62 miles per hour in 5.7 seconds and a top speed of 167 mph. Honda also fits the CTR with Brembo brakes and adaptive dampers, while a special suspension setup reportedly helps in the fight against torque steer. While the big wing catches the eye first, Honda adds to the aggressive look with a new rear diffuser, front splitter and deeper side skirts. Also, the vents behind the front wheels help air through the engine bay to keep things running cool. Inside, front occupants are hugged by sport seats with big bolsters to keep them in place. With the forthcoming NSX and return to Formula One, Honda appears on the very cusp of a performance renaissance, and the Civic Type R is just one more step in that direction. Thankfully, at least one rumor indicates its turbocharged engine might make it into the North American Civic at some point. Related Video:

2017 Honda Civic Coupe spotted for the first time

Mon, Mar 30 2015

Rumors about the next-generation Honda Civic have been coming fast and furious in recent weeks. The speculation suggests the future model will use a new 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and some European body styles will come across the Atlantic. There's even the potential for an overhaul of the CR-Z on the same platform. Now, we've got a glimpse at what the next Civic looks like in coupe and sedan form. Our spies believe that under all that black diaper is the 2017 Civic Coupe, but it's hard to discern any details. With an open section on top it's even difficult to get a good idea of the roofline, though some of the photos suggest a fastback-style rear. The examples concealed in white are believed to be the future Civic Sedan, and one of them is exposed enough to get a good idea of its shape. In profile the look is reminiscent of the current Accord, which is good, if conservative. Seeing the two versions together provides few hints about the coupe's styling, other than a shared wheelbase between both cars. The apparent door handle cutout on the driver's side of the coupe is likely a camouflage trick to hide any information about the length or shape of the doors. One recent rumor suggests that the next-gen Civic's styling could be fully unveiled towards the end of 2015. Until then, click through the gallery of spy shots, and let us know in Comments what you think of this design direction. Related Video:

2015 Acura NSX burns to the ground at the 'Ring [w/video]

Thu, Jul 24 2014

Assuming all goes to plan, automakers test their vehicles to the breaking point in the months and years leading up to that vehicle's actual release into the public. Which is good, because it's much better for a car to break in glorious fashion in the hands of the company that produces it than in the driveway of an owner who just spent their hard-earned cash to get it. Such was the case with this production-guise Acura NSX prototype that we saw running around the Nurburgring just the other day. We can't be 100-percent certain, but the burned-out carcass is wearing the same number plate as the car that was spotted earlier, so it's likely the very same NSX. We have no idea what was the cause of the blaze that turned this Acura into the car-b-q you see pictured above, but our spy shooters on the ground in Germany say it was not involved in any collision, having caught on fire all on its own with engineers behind the wheel. The good news is that nobody was hurt, though the car is quite clearly a complete loss. We're sure there's another ready to to test in the burned car's place... just as soon as the engineers at Honda figure out exactly what went wrong. Have a look at the smoldering aftermath up above, and feel free to scroll down below to see a video of the car in much better circumstances.
