Got another car..this time Legit JDM Honda
Friday, August 06, 2010 4:33 PM
Yesterday we picked this thing up in WV with all paperwork proving it is a legit JDM car, shipped from Okanawa, Japan in 1980.

It's a 1980 Honda Prelude, First Gen, ((1 of 4 in the us with registered paperwork, there are more, but only four are registered, at least when we did research that's what we found, as well as were told by the DMV))

It doesn't look too good, needs restoration but runs beautifully and has all receipts from day one. It really needs some cosmetic work, rust and other minor things but everything works.

Haha! That's funny the guy who had it wanted to trade me for my ae86 before I sold it.

Nice car should be a fun project.

Neat how much you get it for?

that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra
scary to me. There's a large, out-of-focus monster, roaming the countryside.

he was asking 1800 but we talked him down to 1600 since he absolutely needed it gone, and we drove four and a 1/2 hours to pick it up.
