how you found ur ride

every1 remembers how the got their thirdgen, so how did u find ur thirdgen?

i rescued mine from a lady keeping it behind a dumpster under snowpile were the snow plows had pushed the snow to melt. the vehicle hadnt had a oil change in over two years and the hood was dented and an ugly grey while the body was a faded red. but u couldnt pull the smile off my face everytime a honda pulls up next to me with there fart pipes and gets dusted by my superior american power.

I found mine on craigslist, Saved it from a guy who was so stupid, that he NEVER took care of the car.
He claimed the A/C system was shot, when after a good recharge, it blew ice cold and still does 2 and a half months later.

Everything that was replaced as maintenance on the car was either the wrong thing, or on wrong.


ive done alot to her since then, and is actually getting a new set of rubbers when the government checks come in the mail.

Re: how you found ur ride

This has nothing to do with vehicle History/Restoration.
