Uploading the pictures to Flickr and linking them seemed a bit tricky so have put the car on car and classic as this seemed the easiest. Will get better pictures weather and light permitting. Out of interest, how much would I need to pay to put headlights and air box on the car to make it more saleable?

What do you mean how much would you have to pay to put headlights on it? Do you mean buy some headlights, or pay someone to fit ones that you already have?

I think some more pics would help - difficult to judge the rust from the couple on that ad tbh

Out of interest, what colour tint is the glass in the car? Green or bronze?

Price to purchase them only.
Will try to verify tint colour and get pics of rust at weekend.

I've had an enquiry from someone who wants the engine / box for a later Accord Type R (age of 5th gen Prelude) but he's not sure if it would be compatible - any words of guidance here?
As for rust - the rear arches had gone though after poking at them (covered holes now to save getting caught on them) .

Different obd, so all ancillaries, loom, brackets, injectors etc. would need to be swapped over from their current A7 engine onto the A in your 4th Gen. The ATR ECU will be mapped for the A7 engine too, so it won't run to proper potential.

I may be interested in some parts if you can upload some photos of the car. I'm local too :)

Do you have the radiator rubber seats? They sit at the bottom of the radiator locating pins.

Quick bump (and a apology for not getting back to people about part requests - I've been very busy lately and only just found some time to spend on the prelude.......).
Got the engine out this weekend and continued stripping any useful parts off of it. Few more bits too take off before the shell gets taken away - Unless anyone on here wants a stripped out shell FOC :D

Anyway if anyone still needs any parts please drop me a line and i'll see what I have left.....

Cheers Will
