So yesterday I bought a 99 accord 4dr as a daily beater,, the waggon will be on stands again for phase 2. Picked up some jdm tails, rear fogs, and a CT26 turbo with a to4e adapter flange. Always wanted to use this turbo on a d-series. Anyway.. now I can go full force on the wagon and not have to worry about putting it back together every time I need to drive!
Love it Love it Love it. Very nice. Just maybe take some super clean pictures, or have a photographer do some shots with style. Its one of the cleanest I would say highly modded wagons here. Love to see a clean one
Well I came home today to find my wagon is gone! Looks like someone wanted it more than me...
All I have left is my fenders and roof spoiler since I was making molds for them... I feel like jumping
In front of a moving train right now!! WTF!!!!
Yea, its so, yea it sucks ass... I feel sick about it. Of coarse I haven't heard anything about it yet,, if I do my last stolen cars were found 3 days later.... stripped on steelies.... we shall see i guess. Anyone in the north Florida area, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi areas that see my car or parts let me know please!!!!
I'm very upset to hear that, I feel your pain. When stuff like this happens it make me regret ever stepping into to the "honda world". It makes me think, Maybe I should have just gotten myself a geo metro or something that's uninteresting. Well I hope you find it back. I will pray and keep an eye out for you eventho I'm all the way in ny, hey you never know.
:evil: so I got the call the car was found. At first they wouldn't say if anything was taken, they just kept saying I have to come to the impound to see it, if I still want it I need proof of title blablabla.. great sounds promising,, oh yea its in Gulfport Mississippi!! 100 or so miles away!
So my boss gets involved since he is the wrecker service that will be towing it home. They told him there is no engine/trans, fenders, and the dash is all apart... and its very low so a rollback would be ideal...
Of coarse I have the fenders, and either they left the suspension, I doubt, or it has no springs at all. Sounds must be gone, ect... dunno, I will have to pay 600 bucks impound fees. It's getting less worth taking the trip, but its like I have to see...
Anyone have or know where an extra wagon is? Cheap? I just don't know what to really do....
man i feel you man people have to hate so much on my wagon in my town. i left my car outside my house and when i got back to it someone threw transmision oil all around my car. I was pissed.
Thank to those who liked my wagon, thanks to those who sent their sympathy. All means a lot to me.
My new dilemma will be how to build the wagon again, or a new wagon. The style I had created too much attention, I've had many really cool projects in the past,, but this wagon had the most conversation I ever had in a car... what now,, should I just break out a roller brush and some house paint?? All go no show? Whatever... I'm shure it was the 4wd badges that provoked the theft. Technically who really takes or wants a sohc d series besides our wagon guys...
Nevertheless I have a f23a1 motor, a h22 and h23 both with spun rods so maybe I'll do some kind of turbo f23 variant when I get it back. Help its set up for cable shorter anyways, and 4wd shit is way to hard to come buy these days. Who knows...
PS, I'm adding I don't think our wagon guys took it, I just meant 4wd setup is only d series compatible that's all...
So happy to hear that you found it. You should consider a Cut off switch + wheel lock(s). That's what we do in NYC. Even though it wont stop a tow truck, but hopefully someone will notice a tow truck. It very affordable and a sorta unique type of security.

Yea, thanks for the advice,, I do have alarm system that resembles fort knox though, has cut off ect... it was towed away... just like my other stolen cars.
I got it back now and just waiting for the insurance to finish their crap. It was fully insured plus the extra crap. They just took the drivetrain and all the electronics...
I should see how much I get soon. Most likely just break even on towing/impound fees... wagons are not worth much these days.

That would be nice to have a high dollar camera,, truth is photos don't make a car, blood sweat and tears do,, oh and that damn green paper!! LOL

That was one of the sickest wagons out there.
