Hey i'm new to honda's always wanted one and got a chance to snatch one for 100 bucks so i got it problem is is a 82 accord
someone contact me if they know an engine swap is possible, not loking to do anything extreme just a little more giddy up if you know what i mean and would like to know if its possible to convert to standard tranny? from auto, i know the clutch pedal may be hard to work out what what else would be needed to do it, i also have a 92 dsm with the 1.8 , someone through me some info please

trust me that's not the best deal you have made. the car is kind of old but hey if u are happy with it why not ? I really wouldn't messup with the tranny swap. how's the body on that thing ?

WELCOME TO HONDASTYLE (we also have a dsm section here so u are more than welcome to stay)

Welcome to HS. You just might have the oldest Accord on the board (not a bad thing). What kind of condition is it in?

Welcome to HS. Another Okie here.
<<< teepee town

my sister has an 82 accord with about 250,000 miles on it. its rock solid. with an accord that old im sure there are probly 5 total performance parts available for the original equipment so i wouldnt bother modifying it.

That's really cool that its in great shape. Older hondas in great shape are hard to come by.
