V6 swap material

Post by jjmartin349571 » Sat Mar 14, 2015 10:37 pm

Perfect for an Accord or Prelude of the era I reckon, as I think that's a Honda lump?

80's V6 goodness

It's a manual too :o

Tbh - I'd happily drive that as is, no one would suspect that of packing a V6 under the bonnet :D

Yeah they're very nice cars those. My mate's dad had 2 Sterling's.
First one was a series 1 like that (with the Honda engine) second one was a series 2 with the kv6 engine.
That one looks in lovely condition. A lot of car for very little money.

I want to buy it and pull its guts out :twisted: I've run out of space though and Laura will have a jobby fit if I buy anything else :lol: Shame as this one is perfect for hoarding away for bits, I can't imagine there's many manual ones left any more.
