I'm on board with this old guy... 'Justin'. :) That's a solid name.

It looks like the original single stage paint too? Any rust, how is the body work?

As for the smell, is the carpet salvageable? If it is I've got a pressure washer, we can pull it, douse it in simple green and spray the hell out of it, then let it hang dry in my garage (which has heat so it'll go relatively fast). To get rid of the rest of the mustiness and get it back to normal old car smell, consider one of theses: http://www.griotsgarage.com/product/stinky-be-gone.do?sortby=ourPicks I stuck one in Ol' Red when I bought her because she was a bit gamey and it's worked wonders (imo).

Any plans to side draft it and get some fury out of that 1.2?

For $1900 and rust free seriously just bug bomb it. And that's coming from an arachnaphobe (sp?).

That could be a really, really fun car and you'd easily get your money back when you sell. Maybe more if you clean it up nice.

With that price, and all those spiders, what could go wrong?

Seriously, as someone that spent a LOT of time shopping for 02s in the same market and who still watches it occasionally, that car is a set of tires and a detail away from being a $3k care unless it has some serious issues.

Isn't that the same color as the ti you let go too?

Yeah, that's why I was kind of surprised at the listing in the first place and was encouraging you jump on it.

All of that said, selling the Honda for twice what you paid for it is still a good deal and even if this one guy is jacking up his price, if you're patient there are still deals to be found out there.

Sorry about that though, it's always a bummer when that happens.

I found this: http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/4360607523.html

The pass fender could use some hammer pounding, but the rest is pretty awesome.

In fact, if I didn't have the 2002 right now I'd probably buy the poo poo out of that.

I find myself a little compelled regarding this car. Not compelled enough to buy it mind you because gently caress I'd never be able to figure out that engine myself, but I want to help. If you buy it I'll make the trip up to Ballard with my detailing gear and a six pack and we can make the old girl shine really nice in the driveway... Get those leather seats back to being supple and smelling 100%.

Serious question, are you going to street park it and work on it there or do you at least have a parking pad now? Or maybe if you can get the car for the right price you'll have enough extra for a nearby storage unit?

I know getting one of these has been a dream of yours for a long time, I'm excited to see it come true :)

If I didn't already know you lived in Seattle I'd have been able to guess it from your description of traffic.

FYI in the state of WA if you don't have the title you can file for a lost title with the state and after two years (I think, it might be three) they send you the title assuming no one says you stole it from them and provider proof. You'll still want/need a bill of sale from the current owner.

Just saying, in case that happens. What kind of man will you be after two years of PT?

Also, possible vanity plate, PTSD? PTPTSD? :)

You know what I do? I lock myself in my room in silence for a few days and I escape because it's the only thing that slows my mind down enough to sleep afterward. It's cheaper than adderall, which my insurance refuses to cover and my doctOr refused to adjust my dose after over two years, when all I loving want is to be able to function at work. Not a single person seems to get that all I want to do is to work and function as a normal human being , I don't steal, I don't break any other laws, I just want to be able to exist. I don't ask for much.

Just to make something clear, taking an almost 10 minute long selfie video while thinking you're watching worms in your eyes, all while at work, isn't functioning. That's why the girl in the background said "Dave, what are you doing?".

You should remove the image with your medical and person info man, HIPAA exists for a reason and if corn and 1500quid have proven anything it's that there are definitely people reading this thread that are purely in it for entertainment... There could also be worse.

I know our country doesn't have a great support mechanism for people with mental illness, but without good insurance or resources. I also don't claim to know what the best solution for you is or whether not you have other illnesses and/or diseases, but I hope you get help. We got some beers together a couple of years ago and you're a nice dude... I really hope you don't commit slow suicide via drug addiction and alcoholism because I'd miss you, the forums would miss you, your cat would miss you and most of all I think your family would miss you. How would your Dad react and feel if he knew you were self medicating like this? As a Dad myself, it'd break my heart.

We're talking about a guy that, if you've been following this thread, clearly doesn't like authority. If you think having the cops show up at his door step to intervene in the process is going to help at all instead of making him double down out of spite then by all means continue on. I happen to think that this is only going to make things worse. I'm not in this for "entertainment" like you think, I absolutely think it would be best for 14 inch to get his act together. But I also think that a bunch of people on the internet saying what he's doing is bad really isn't helping much at all. But I'm an rear end in a top hat so what the hell do I know.

I read your post as you being in it for the 'entertainment', so I'm happy to be corrected and find out that's not the case. I agree with your thoughts. Thank you for posting this and sorry for calling you an rear end in a top hat.

Hey, you guys that were talking about titles. Can someone help me out here, I still need to get a title for my 58 that spent 30 years in a field.

I'm sure it varies by state, but in WA you basically submit for a temporary title so that you can get insurance, etc and as long after three years, assuming you aren't challenged on ownership, they issue a permanent title. You aren't allowed to sell the vehicle while holding the temp title.
