want to start over

[GenDBlade]

So my cb has a lot of problems.
mostly just minor problems but there are lot of those minor problems

but my main problem is that the frame is slightly bent(from an accident), which throws of the alignment of the doors and tires. i dont have a frame bender or the money to get it fixed. there is cancer on my rear quarter panel which has created a hole in my trunk and now i get moisture in the car. which SUCKS.

so what im saying is that id like to get a new cb. one with fewer problems(cause i know the odds of me finding a cb with no problems is few and far between) and start my build over.

is that so unreasonable?

[buckysaccord93]

no it is not. i have pondered this thought of doing the same thing and just using my cb now as a winter car

[GenDBlade]

yefa. thats what i was thinking

[Law Grandeur]

put some of your crack on the dents, dings, rust, and frame and it'll fix it right up...lol

[GenDBlade]

im out of crack

[Law Grandeur]

then save up 4 grand and buy an almost perfect cb. but honestly for that much you can get any other car

[Joshy]

no, it isn't unreasonable at all. i'm doing the same thing.

these cars are a dime a dozen. check craigslist periodically until you find one that you like. then, jump on it.

it isn't as easy as it was, say, two to five years ago to find what you want. but they come and go.

If i dont end up buying this CB in virginia myself ill hook you up with the guy. You might want it.

[cvc7chris]

i know ur up in nothern from me. theres tons of cb7s for sale down here in roanoke, va lmk if u decide to get a new one i can help u find one.

[h22sparkle]

if you dont have the tools find someone why buy another car just save up the money and get it fixed? hondas is a never ending maintenance game when it comes to performance. And its an older car its gonna happen.

[deevergote]

Older cars are a neverending maintenance game. Hondas are among the better old cars as far as that goes.

GenDBlade, it really does sound like you have quite a few major problems. A tweaked frame and enough rust to eat through your trunk... to fix those things properly, I've known friends to spend thousands. I'm a fan of keeping up with YOUR car, not just any CB7 (mine is also tweaked, and it has some other issues...) However, in your case, it might be best to move on. Be aware that even though a CB7 looks similar, it will still feel like a different car than the one you are used to. My old 92 DX coupe felt familiar, but not as much like "home" as my 92 LX sedan.
