Dutch guy on the loose!

Post by Oxid » Thu Jun 30, 2016 10:34 am

Hi everyone!

I'm Kelvin, 27 years old and live just 5 minutes away from Amsterdam in a city called Zaandam.

I've just got my hands on a 3rd gen Prelude which I'm very happy with.
Got it from the first owner and the car has been standing still since 2006.

Almost completely rust free, the only downside is we had to drive it to the garage 35+ miles without any form of braking.. Quite the experience I'll tell you.

Also I'm in search of some parts for this thing, so if any if you has some or is breaking one, please let me know! :)

Pictures, we all love pictures!

Beautiful :D And welcome to the club :)

And how did you manage roundabouts and junctions with no brakes?! :shock: Or were they enough to stop you once you'd used the gears to get down into 1st?
