I bought this thing for $500 in my slump when my mightymax rebuilt engine died. It's white, 5 speed, nap z motor, 4 headlight system, roof rack, wooden tool box, lots of dents and rust. It's a beater till I get something else running. I might sell it this week too. I'll get pictures of this pos tomorrow.

I had a transmission sitting under my house since 2003 and I called and asked around if anyone knew if it had an expiration date in storage. No answers were given, even from a few trans shops. I would have bought mines from a local recycle yard because they give like a 6 month warrenty on engine and transmissions, but I think they would have gave me one in the same condition. I'm chancing it in my girlfriends old Honda civic. If it runs, Nissan is gone.

This truck smells like gas, maybe a rust hole in the tank itself. The door pillar is rusted to the point where it shakes, and is held on by rust. That on the drivers door around the window. I can lift up the carpet and see the ground. O.O the truck was in a lot of accidents as far as I can see. Lots of dents, front bumper was pulled lots of times, and the handle for the tailgate is missing. Pitman arm and idler is very sloppy, and I'm sure the sway bar bushings are original. Clutch chatter pressent, carb needs an overhaul. I think the choke is gummed up because the idle is high when cold and way too low when warmed up.

Dont forget getting back to point A. Unless they have mightyram50.net at point B.........then you could hang around a lil while.

If the holes inthe trans werent plugged up there is a good chance of moisture setting in there and doing damage. In florida with the crazy humidity it doesnt take long.

I pulled the dipstick and saw some ATF still at the bottom of it. And it was still red, and was still really clean. I just hope it runs. Then I can drive around a civic with ac.

I've owned quite a few hondas. I owned a 1989 Honda prelude, 1992 civic 4 door, 1992 civic hatch, 1994 civic coupe, girlfriends 1995 civic 4 door, my mom has a 1993 civic 4 door, and my sister has her acura rsx. Before her rsx, it was a 1992 Honda accord, and before that was a 1989 Honda accord. I'm just tired of hondas.

I buttoned up the 4 door civic. I'm just waiting on fluid. I got my girlfriend to go to Honda or Acura to get me Honda ATF and she still ain't back. Hopefully she remembered, and remembered on time.
