Honda Accord 1984 4 Door Light Blue Runs on 2040-cars

Year:1984 Mileage:198086
Location:

Rochester, Indiana, United States

Rochester, Indiana, United States

Up for auction here is a Honda Accord 1984, The first year they made Accords I believe. This car runs great and has always been a reliable second car to me. 

198,086 is the mileage on the car body, the motor has been changed and has less miles, I think around 120,000 miles on the motor. It really runs good, the motor purrs like a kitten. 

Known Issues: 

Little rusty, as it has been an Indiana car. mostly around the bottom of the doors, in that area and around the wheel wells. The hood is just dirty in the picture, it cleans up nice.  
1. It needs a new gas tank or the gas tank repaired. it has a slight leak, I can only put 10-15 dollars in at a time or it leeks slowly. 
2. The back wheels are now locked up, I assume from sitting and not being driven much. They will not turn as of right now. 

Runs great other than those 2 issues that need fix or looked at. It just needs some good ol' TLC. 

Some newer stuff: 
Has 4 matching Bridgestone tires with plenty of tread, the tires are very nice and not that old.  
I just put a new battery in it which I will maybe take back if the buyer does not need it. 
I also put new windshield wiper blades on it which I will leave there. 

Other than the known issues listed above, this car runs great, it is old but it will get you there, and with good gas mileage, it gets around 32 mpg, highway. 
I just drove this car to Florida and back about a year ago and it ran great the entire trip. That is where I picked up the gas leek though, from hitting something in the road around Louisville on the way home. Had the leek patched and it got me home safe. Have not drove it much since and now the back wheels need some attention. 

Payment for and pickup of the vehicle is expected within 7 days of auction ending. 
Buyer must pick up the vehicle, title is clear and ready to go.

Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.

Honda begins Micro Commuter testing

Fri, 19 Jul 2013

Autocar is reporting that Honda is about to start testing prototypes of its Micro Commuter, a petite EV that'll do adorable battle with the Renault Twizy if it reaches production.
Honda first showed the Micro Commuter, a so called super-urban vehicle, in November. Like the Renault, it features a 1+1 setup, meaning there's a central seat up front and a small backseat behind it. Honda has designed the tandem runabout for versatility, featuring a body that can be adapted for everything from child hauling to elderly passengers.
A rear-mounted electric motor draws power from a 15-kilowatt, lithium-ion battery, granting it a top speed of 50 miles per hour. With 37 miles of range, the Micro Commuter could be a neat urban solution. That said, these were figures that were announced in November, so we wouldn't be surprised to see them change as Honda gathers data from its new prototype testing program.

Design Handbook explains the difference between design and styling

Fri, 11 Oct 2013

It's easy to confuse the terms 'design' and 'style,' but Jim Hall attempts to explain the difference between the two in his latest Design Handbook video column for Autoline. Before relating the terms to cars, Hall first uses other, non-automotive-related examples to prove his point, such as a well-designed glass versus a well-styled glass. Both do their job well as a result of good designs, he claims, but one stands out more because it also was styled.
When he relates his lesson to cars, he uses the 2013 Honda Accord and the new Chevrolet Impala as examples, but you'll have to watch the video below to find out which car he thinks is merely designed and which one has been styled.
We've also included a gallery of the Honda and a gallery of the Chevrolet so you can decide for yourself which one of these vehicles has been designed, and which one has been styled.
