Hey guys, restoring my family's orig. 1977 Accord and need some advice.
First, looking for someone who does good metal work for a reasonable price in the Southern California area.
Also looking for feedback on good places to find nos/old/used parts for an Accord like this.
Did a little research on the car tonight, and it is a fairly early U.S. one.
The first Accords to come to the U.S. were mfg. in May 1976.
Mine is a November 1976 mfg. so 7th month of Accord importation to the U.S.
and it's vin of 7432 out of 83,941 total '77's says it was in the first 8.7% of the '77's.
Interesting. I wonder how many orig. owners have older ones in the U.S.
that are still being driven and in excellent condition?

Here is a preliminary list of parts I need from a silver car, preferably a '76-'78:

-roof panel
-hatch
-hood
-cowl panel at windshield
-fenders
-front bumper (or I could straighten mine but why?)
-hood/headlight trim surround
-outer door molding
-tail lamp bulb backplate
-dash or dash top piece (crack repair)
-carpet
-rear struts

If any of you guys see this stuff in good cond. or a '76-'78 silver doner car in California,
could you drop me an email/PM so I can check it out. I have located most of these parts
at yards across the U.S., but would like to locate them locally/in-state first.
Anyone have experience with UPS/FedEx shipping big stuff like this?
Thanks
Andrew
