3rd gen Prelude XX 4WS, basking in the waxed glory of its waxiness

Nice! I <3 Preludes.  Glad to see you are keeping it stock.  When I was shopping for a new car earlier this year, it was impossible to find a decent used Prelude around here that hadn't had some halfassed body kit stapled on or some unnecessary mods done to the engine.  There was a dude here in town that seemed to make a hobby out of ruining Honda Preludes... it made me cry.  I haven't seen him around in a while, which is good.

Very nice car!  :D

Cheers man. Just bought it about 2 months ago, it's my first car. I'm going to go for the "OEM+" look, much like this guy. Honda know best when it comes to aesthetics for this car, IMO. Very fun with the 4WS, it's cool to do a u-turn on a road and see people's reactions (usually  :eek:).

Nice car. Ill have to remember to clean up my car and remeber to take a picture of it, its white and it gets dirty fast when I have to drive on a dirt road and the road is wet. So right now it looks like top half is white bottom half brown. Thing is tho its starting to get colder here so soon I cant even wash it myself or I will just cast a layer of ice on it.

I've got my car now. Lemme see...it's one of these:
'69 Singer Chamois. It's a good year. Over 2.5 times older than me. Mine's in Midnight Blue, same body style, Dual headlamps (same as in pic), and only cost me £500. Pretty good, eh?

*coughcough*875cc engine*coughcough*

Didn't want to admit it, but the displacement is about that of a one pint milk bottle. Can still do wheelies at 90mph, though.

Not really a bump, though, is it?

Anyways, the engine is now put of my car, the rocker cover and cam head are off, and the pistons look to have a bit of wear on them...but not bad, considering they have never been changed for the 42 years the car's been around. Checked the reason for the wear...the valve gaps are WAY too small. Need to re-shim the valves, but finding shims for a car long not in production isn't easy.

Your car is beautiful.

'Nuff said.

EDIT: Doesn't this have the engine at the back of the car?

Nope, it's a Singer. Although, by the time my car was out, the Hillman imp was actually a Sunbeam Imp.

My mum likes other cars, particularly their bumpers and tow bars.
