saw this ad in paper:
1988 Honda Accord DX. 2 dr. coupe, runs, drives, needs some work. parts car included.
would this make a good project car? i've done some research and learned it has a 2.0L with a carb. before i do anything i want to here it run and find out what is wrong with it and the parts car. i've got about every tool for a ford or gm but are there any other tools i may need to work on this?

Make sure to really think out your finances before you dive in. Old cars eat money like crack. Also, be sure to find out its history. Like, has is been owned by a grandma who drove it slow for a few miles until she got too old to keep it, or was it driven by some leadfoot teen back in 1989 who cracked the manifold and has been up on blocks for 15 years.

thats the thing i hate the most about buying any kind of car used.
