GREAT MAN!! Woohoo! GO FOR IT..
I picked up a very nice 84 1500s (for its age, and sitting out in the sun) from a bud a few years ago that was sitting in his back yard for 18yrs..
(actually had it running in about 3hrs after going through the weber that was on it) and She's getting a make over..
I've been messing with OLD Hondas for over 40yrs, and picked up some of the old wheel flares/fender flare molds for these ol gals..
Also have tons of old parts and projects that I thought that I'd love to do a Old School build up a carb'd B20 (and wire up the Vtec solenoid to
the carb linkage)
The mounts can be sourced for about 250.00 as with the hybrid axles from Raxles, (but you're gonna need the 1g front hubs (just get the whole front suspension drop out if you can)
And Rywire can help if you wanted all the FI stuff.
Hope to be starting on it in a few months, and have been acquiring parts for years. BUT, got kids graduating and 2 jobs so we'll see how it goes.
Need to sell my 88 HF to help pay for the make over though.
So, if you want to go for it, DO IT. just don't piss around if you don't have any money.. Ya gotta PAY TO PLAY.
Back in the day, I had time but no money. Now I have the money but no time. You can still keep a project alive if you have the funds, but if you don't, you start cutting corners and end up with crap that NO ONE will give you a 1/4 of what you got in it.. (like CLEANING/PAINTING THE BAY while you have everything out)
