Looking for a Prelude shell. - Honda Prelude Forum

Dr. James · 04-24-2002, 04:10 PM

I am looking for a Prelude Shell. Just the body and subframes. If you guys have an idea of where one is at, PLEASE let me know. I have a little idea/project in the works, and I don't want to spend the dough on a good condtion prelude. Preferably one that has been totaled, or rusted out. I have been wanting to create this thing for quite sometime, and now I have the parts and resourses to try.

Dr James I can only get a hold of a 5th gen shell

A g/f of mine has a 92 si that has a F22 in it.... she is now pregnant, and she wants to get rid of it. She only wants like $800.00 for it. she just hates it. it does have some front end damage, nothing a body kit and Z3's wont fix... if you want more info let me know!

Any hints as to what exactly your planning?

Dr. James · 04-25-2002, 05:50 PM

Well, I don't want to let out too much info. but I'll put it this way, Full tube chassis, RWD, and an S2000 Drivetrain Big turbo and lots of power

. I just picked up an entire S2000 Drivetrain from the engine to the rear end. This is something that I have thought out on paper numerous times, but didn't have the resourses to carry it out. I now have a chassis builder, and the support of a local shop to get this thing going.

May I again refer you to my title under my SN.

Again with the Preludes...

What is this, your 7th Prelude?

You get rid of one, and then within a matter of months, you turn up again with a new one...

There is a difference here with this one though, this one won't ever see the street. This one is strictly a race car. We were going to try and develop this car as an AutoXer, but I think that I would prefer a drag car. What are your guys thoughts on this?

Hey cantdrive55, where in cali are you? Your member info says Ghettoville Ca. But the picture looks like the Mojave Desert. Are you in the High Desert somewhere?

Yeah, Palmdale which is about a 45 minute drive from EAFB. My info says ghettoville because of the number of times my car has been vandalized, along with the number of cars that have been broken into at my place of employment.

Its a red 92 si. white 18" ADR gt sport rims, lowered. and part of a body kit..(the back bumper is still on from when we fit it. its still is primer, and it looks like ****. I do have the front now, and the sides are on the way, they sent me the wrong ones the first time)

What about you

si4u2nv · 04-26-2002, 09:22 PM
