EXTREME BUMP and UPDATE

I've not driven my CB7 in almost a year, but have started her up once in a while to keep her alive. Due to becoming a new homeowner and somewhat an important person at work, I hadn't had much time for working on cars. The wife needed a vehicle to get her to work, so I let her take the CB7 for a while. I had an opportunity to buy a ford freestyle so I did that. After some time the engine went, and I ended up buying a 6th gen accord, EXV6 of course. The freestyle got fixed so I gave it to my wife, and kept the 6th gen as a daily. The CB7 sat in my driveway, ready for action, ever since.

I'm eager to take the CB7 out again, she just needs a new flex pipe and an oxygen sensor. I gave up on a lot of my older dreams like DOHC head, basic turbo, etc. But I will keep her clean and healthy until the day I decide to do a total rebuild, and pass it on to my kin. Mark my word, I will never sell or scrap this vehicle. I've had too many good times...

• driving to army bases with loads of equipment and army buddies taking up every cubic inch of space
• picking up my girlfriend from work late at night in the snowy weather
• random road trips 4 hours away to see rammstein, ruch, iron maiden etc in concert with my little brother
• climbing a mountain that i was told only pickups could
• helping my friend move out of his house after a bitter divorce
• picking up a friend at the airport i hadnt seen in 6 years
• too many close calls to count, by idiots who cant look where the fuck they are going
• the look on my passengers face when the old beater takes off like a bat out of hell
• random road trips to other provinces just to escape quebec for a day
• dressing the car in canada flags just to piss off the separatists

Until next time.. some pics!
