just bought a 96 accord 4cyl 5 speed with 270k on her and she runs like a dream! paid $800 for it and threw a new clutch flywheel and rear main seal in it and drive it daily 40+ miles to work. cheap hondas rock and someone definitely bought that and made it a good daily!
Keep that positive attitude there Jay!😊 I've been a subscriber forever, can't believe you're not weigh over 100,000. People don't know what they're missing,🎉😮❤
Id watch videos of these old hondas/cars all day long vs videos of a lambo, just not my interest, this is, great content sir. Edit: that car will get someone to point a to b, thats all a lot need, its crazy. I seen someone walking to work at a gas station from a trailer park, THAT car would make a huge impact on someone's life, dont knock it until you been in these situations people, cheap car can be a life saver.
A little time and money, it will be a decent car. Up here in Michigan, our vehicles are usually rusted out. Randy at AAR is in process of getting the title finally. Great video Jay, always enjoy watching 😊
I love all the lights popping up. In the previous generation accord, the triangle, TSC, and check engine light usually meant the kiss of death for your transmission
This market is insane. In illinois these cars have 150k miles, rust like crazy, have issues. And they still want 20 grand. Definitely hard to make a buck in this business.
I would rather buy that than any new EV! I am afraid the used ICE market will only get higher due to the shortcomings of the EVs. Fixing up would be worth it due to the Honda reliability factor.
Seeing that the automatic transmissions attached to those j32/j35 engines are well known for failing. I don’t think it’s worth keeping unless it has the K24 engine.
@@applepoop10 those trannies only fail from negligent fluid changes. That is the issue. Gotta do the fluid between 30-50k to make sure they are freshened up. The torque converter is especially fragile to lack of proper maintenance, that tends to lead to further issues.
@@cavalierliberty6838 not always, I’ve seem them fail regardless of maintenance schedule. The failure point is the clutch packs, they are weak and to tend slip a bit because they can’t handle the power from the V6 engine. If you want reliable and better aftermarket support, the K24 is a better option.
Looks decent , Like for a beater to run around in. I’d definitely change out the driver’s seat..lol most vehicles that year are all rusted out here.. but might find good interior and other parts for that stuff. I’m so far north it would be another summer car.. I drive Subaru’s for the winter here.. have a 2010 Forester for now..was 2,500$ and had been rust proofed a lot.
Just found this video. My mother in law had a 2004 Accord couple red 4 cylinder with 72k miles that she bought new and wasnt driving it anymore. She happened to mention that she was trying to sell it and no one was interested. I told my wife that we would be driving the 10 hours to her place to grab that car immediately. She gave us the "family deal" which was next to nothing since we were buying it for our daughter. I flushed the tranny with Honda fluid, got new tires and we gave the interior a good cleaning since it had been sitting for awhile. That 20 year old car drives like a new car. It lived its first garage kept life in Oregon and had regular service by a Honda dealer which explains its excellent condition.
It's got potential. I had a 2006 Accord coupe with a 4-cyl. Unfortunately, a drunk driver ran a stop sign, and I T-boned him (I did walk away, though). Gotta admit, I'm gonna miss that car.
If the tranny is good, she's worth fixing. I picked up an 03 a few months ago for $650 at a police auction near DC, also a V6. Runs and drives with 155k, the hood and left fender are mismatched, the power steering pump was shot, and it has some oil leaks, but it'll make someone a good car for under $3000. And right now, cheap cars are what people need.
$1,000 for this (if I heard that right) isn’t bad at all. Good room to spend on it but not a lot of profit after. Also, hope 100k comes soon, you definitely deserve it!
You ain't kidding about the used car market. Up here in the north (The sinful salt belt rust bucket territory) The average car with 100 to 250 k rotted to the point of not being inspected (state safety inspection) are running around $3000.00 and are technically being sold as parts or repair cars and I'll tell ya there's not much to repair on one of these rot boxes. The last couple of cars Ive purchased one came from Florida and one from Tennessee that Honda of yours not being a rot box is gold in comparison to the crap up here. And you would be correct people are not buying new cars or trucks becouse of the price tag. And the sad part is car manufacturers are having cars built in Mexico Mexico becouse they tons of money on labor cost. on your honda park it in the sun on the dent quarter side get it nice and hot and put the ole bathroom plunger to it pop it out as best you can And the head liner a little spray adhesive on the head liner board and just stick it back up there.😊👍
Spider web can have beauty too. Think about working with the paint and not against it. Let it be what it is. It's OK. Plastidip changes old clear coat in a good way.
I call that a "rainy day car"......You can drive it in the rain, down the muddiest roads and never worry about washing it! 😅 Just keep the drivetrain, wheels, and suspension maintained and you're good to go! It'll make a good car for somebody....maybe. Hopefully
That is proper mange. That RAV4 you found a cook spoon in felt safer, cleaner, and loved a lot more. Reminds me of a car I had to inspect (and failed) for a TX state inspection. A 2007 Honda Odyssey that is loaded up, but has 250k on the clock and was... well... clapped, smelled like cat piss inside and it keeps on failing cause the check engine light keeps coming on... did I mention it's from a buy here pay here lot?
I wish they would bring back state inspections here. I’ve thought about moving closer to home across the state line (NC) just to work with inspection cars. Some of the things people get away with driving around here is scary. Just knowing that garbage is going down the road beside me. SMH. And I agree, I loved that RAV4 and it sold quick! This is a much bigger project
@@MXguy95Same with Floridia and maryland when it comes to cars safety up in Pennsylvania we have inspection I seen a former floridian suv have serous rust and it newer owner had to get bondo to pass inspection.
West Virginia has safety inspections. Helped my mom take the ex-Secret Service Suburban in for its annual earlier this year. Virginia used to have safety inspections required every six months. That ended in the 1980's.
I think this is worth saving! Hondas will go down the road reliably with hardly any issues! On top of that, there are always people looking for dependable & cheap cars out there! Whether it’s people who do not have a big overall budget at all or if it’s someone who works in the military & doesn’t want to drive to military bases with anything nice, this will certainly fit the bill!! One possible option is that You could do the radio since it’s only $75, do the headliner so it doesn’t get in anyone’s face while driving & so it presents better, MAYBE it’s possible to polish the lights so the lights work better and give off a better look, and get this detailed. If you at least do those, it’ll sell & fit the bill for someone with a low budget. Plus it’s hard to get perfect Hondas now in this crazy market. When it comes to the seats cracking, someone can always get a seat cover or something like that to hide the cracks if they don’t want to get it reupholstered. But I wouldn’t worry about the paint or the dents or anything of that nature. If anyone buys this as a low budget beater, they aren’t gonna care about any of that stuff. But anyway, that’s what I would suggest! Hope this helps your decision! Love the channel btw! You’ll make it to 100k soon! I believe in you man!
Thanks for another video Jay! That Honda isn't that bad it drives and runs! Trust me it could make a huge difference in someones life. There are people out there that need something like this. You will break 100k subscribers soon I have faith it will happen. It will get somebody somewhere A to B!
I got a Honda Accord myself but it is a 2014 and only has a little over 50,000 miles on it. It's going to last me forever because I bought it new in 2014.
I've got my dad's '04 LX 2.4L 94k miles. I am keeping it forever. Also have a well maintained 2010 Pilot. It stays home more often. Gas mileage not so great on that. Dependable, though.
The 4 cylinder accords IMO are much better choices. I love those, and they take a beating. The 6 cylinder does pack a punch but the fuel mileage, constant oil leaks, and other failures just don’t seem like an appealing trade off
@@thatv8life186 Love Honda/Toyota reliability. I daily drove a 1989 Grand Marquis LS from 1997-2018. It was also extremely reliable. I did have to install a used transmission because of a plastic grommet that failed on the overdrive. I purchased an aftermarket brass one. Problem solved.
Hello, Jay! At 14:50 you said you had trouble finding subjects for videos. Don't worry! Just make a video about anything, and your fans will watch it- even if you just drink a beer and talk about the weather!
Colour is nice. Looks borderline respectable. Actually kinda sexy owing to the decent size. I'd say 2k buy and drop 4k. Annual refurbishment add 3k every year. I'd say 2 and half ish years and then dump it for a V6 coupe 2 door assuming your fortunes change by then. In India accord means top of the line and PPL compare it to entry level luxury euro marques. My cousin brother owned a similar vintage CRV and he has driven some nice cars like Benz convertible and Porsche etc etc.
Your content is always interesting, so your number of subscibers will increase, albeit slowly. I do recall in a vid last year you did a clothing move to increase numbers...perhaps try that again?
Need gloves on to deal with that one LOL. That car is valuable to folks up my way in New England with so little rust. A lot of good body parts for someone interested in parting it. My neighbor in the last year paid $2,500 for a fully clapped out 87 Celica in FL that was perfectly rust free. He only wants the engine (some 4A yadda yadda I don't know....) to build up. He's parting out the rest and guessing he'll only be about $1k or less in the engine. No idea if the Honda 3.0 is something builders want or not.
I’ve sent tons of cars further north to sell. Especially weirdly specific cars like first Gen CRVs, jeep cherokees (the XJs) first gen S10s etc etc. we have to watch out though, the auctions have been moving around cars and a few dealers have been selling northern cars down here. We deal with minimal salt rust thanks to the mountains we’re they still salt during the winter. But for the most part it’s just sun damage that wears the cars paint and interior here. I’d like to get hooked up with someone up your way to ship cars to sell.
@@MXguy95 I"ve heard really bad stories about NY state so my inclination would be to avoid it. Lots of title games are played for starters. I'll ask around my neck of the woods across New England.

No idea, but I would've thought used cars would be getting even hotter b/c with the newest rate hikes the best car financing is now probably 10% ish and more. Might make the
Dude honda buyers are hard to sell too with this conditions trust me unless you clean it and make $500 on it and the Airbags check the passenger seat wires they always get cut.
Had a brown four door 79 Lebaron that had bad clear coat like that, I wiped the entire car down with a rag and a quart of motor oil, stayed looking good til day I sold it a year or so later, Like the Vid Not that bad of a car really, I'd drive it everywhere yes another vid, like to see vids
Hey ! Glad to see you still here! That big box era lebaron was a good look for Chrysler. I crushed a ton of them back at the scrapyard sadly. And yes! We’ve used Linseed oil in the past to clean up paint. And it works wonders on fading plastic with long last results too! Just make sure it dries all the way before you go touching it 😂
Fix it and paint it... $600 to fix dent and paint it, will add $1000 to the value... FInd another seat in the scrap yard, or learn to cover it yourself, you can buy AM covers that look like factory (you pull factory off and apply new one) and you can get both front seats covers for less than $200, you can order some seat paint based on Vin number for the back seats (under $30) to recoat the seats. Head liner... go to Joann Fabrics buy a similar material in black... no one will care based on model year, or yank one from a scrap yard... not that hard to do and with the sunroof it makes it easier.
Nothing wrong to have a beater even in texas. I have three cars with low miles but love my fourth car which is209 dodge journey 250,000 miles . Clear coat coming off the hood but car runs great and is perfect for just around town stuff
I like these, just like the civics, I remember that one accord wagon, that David head that y’all brought home with a blown head gasket that y’all had painted red!
Hey Jay I was wondering a long time ago you made a video about replacing a crank posting sensor on a dodge dakota. What kind of sensor do you recommend the ones I always find are too short for my harness
That poor baby is beat! But it runs and drives. Just bought a 03 Passat to replace the 00 Passat that my son wrecked. For $1800 it was Worth it just because I had the 00’ to trade parts off of and I was not looking to resell it. Just needed a good safe car for the boy to drive. It helped that it was a car no one really wants. All it really needed was a timing belt and a brake caliper. Hard times in the used car market. I work at a Honda dealer and can find savable and resealable cars from time to time. Not often though any more.
My neighbor has a sedan 4 door accord 2007. He uses it mainly to get by, it leaks oil through a gasket. Afraid to repair it since the mechanics may ruin it. Other than that it does him good, but he does not trust it for a long road trip anymore. After the ac compressor broke. It let him down once completely when the ballpoint in front left broke. But has been fixed, bought brand new and a good choice. This could be the case for this red accord coupe. Good for someone to get by.
That is a classic version of what used to a be a 500 dollar car. it wasnt pretty usually pretty roached, had some warning lights on. but hell engine cranked up and ran smooth and she would find all the gears that she was given. sadly a 500 dollar car 10 years ago is a 2500 car now. and wow 500 bucks cars now. honestly cars that have been on fire are in better condition
Hay Jay! Its a decent car ^O^ Coming from Minnesota i would rather deal with flaking clear coat and a bit of dirt and dents then RUST!!! XD As long as it runs and drives i would drive the guts out of it :P I think it was a good buy for $1000.00 :3
I mentioned in the last one my dad's cr-v was 54k miles rebuilt title when he got it for a daily driver it now has 127 or 129k miles i don't remember which it's a 2006 ex is the base model except the awd, and the am fm cd player cassette tape player stereo is apparently a option.. and before we even got it after it was put back together after the light parking lot damage it had to have the transmission replaced at 54k miles?? and I know about the stereo code on my dad's honda crv is in the glovebox and on the top of the stereo
Not only price, I'd say people, like myself, don't want a CVT or all the new "Technology" that can break. Just plain basic cars are a thing of the past, sadly.
Since I predominantly hate Japanese cars and have never seen a Honda I would consider driving around the block let alone across town. I dont know if its worth saving, but i know its worth more in parts than it is whole
That’s the type of vehicle that you drive around the hood when you don’t have much money because gas prices are ridiculous price for that vehicle $3000
just bought a 96 accord 4cyl 5 speed with 270k on her and she runs like a dream! paid $800 for it and threw a new clutch flywheel and rear main seal in it and drive it daily 40+ miles to work. cheap hondas rock and someone definitely bought that and made it a good daily!
You deserve 100k subs. I have faith it will happen. Thanks for sharing As always great videos
That Accord was a $ 24 K when new and the Automatic Transmission was a outrageous $1,600 option !
2005 Accord 4 door EX 4 cylinder auto. 286k all original. Drives like new. Got it with 258k in April 2022.
So she needs a little work. She runs well and blows cold air. That’s a winner here in the south. I don’t know Jay. I like it!
As someone in NY, that car is worth it. No rust is worth a lot here.

Im always hearing transmissions go in the accords that have the v6.
Had a brown four door 79 Lebaron that had bad clear coat like that, I wiped the entire car down with a rag and a quart of motor oil, stayed looking good til day I sold it a year or so later, Like the Vid
Not that bad of a car really, I'd drive it everywhere yes another vid, like to see vids
Hey ! Glad to see you still here! That big box era lebaron was a good look for Chrysler. I crushed a ton of them back at the scrapyard sadly. And yes! We’ve used Linseed oil in the past to clean up paint. And it works wonders on fading plastic with long last results too! Just make sure it dries all the way before you go touching it 😂
Thanks for the video Jay! Cheers
Today on cars you want to see cut and buffed
Fix it and paint it... $600 to fix dent and paint it, will add $1000 to the value... FInd another seat in the scrap yard, or learn to cover it yourself, you can buy AM covers that look like factory (you pull factory off and apply new one) and you can get both front seats covers for less than $200, you can order some seat paint based on Vin number for the back seats (under $30) to recoat the seats. Head liner... go to Joann Fabrics buy a similar material in black... no one will care based on model year, or yank one from a scrap yard... not that hard to do and with the sunroof it makes it easier.
Would make a good beater with ac.
Cant wait to see what you do to it! And, to see the other car too!
Still better than walking. It's a humble car, though people can get a lot of use from it. Few minor fixes and it will be okay.
@2:30 when you showed the "RD" from the "ACCORD" name on the back of the car, first thing I said change it to HONDA "TURD" 🤣😂😅😆😄😃😀🙃
Nothing wrong to have a beater even in texas. I have three cars with low miles but love my fourth car which is209 dodge journey 250,000 miles . Clear coat coming off the hood but car runs great and is perfect for just around town stuff
Sweet looking grey g20 in the background 👀👀😏
Hey, it looks good enough. I would just use as a second hand vehicle. To take the work and park it and then drive it home.
Mate! what were you thinking haha did you stop off at a bar on the way to buy that thing 🤷♂
I like these, just like the civics, I remember that one accord wagon, that David head that y’all brought home with a blown head gasket that y’all had painted red!
Honda looks and sounds good to me id snag it up real quick
I would not give more then 50 dollars for that.
Haven't seen your post in a while keep up the good work
Fix the Honda up Jay
Hey Jay I was wondering a long time ago you made a video about replacing a crank posting sensor on a dodge dakota. What kind of sensor do you recommend the ones I always find are too short for my harness
I'd fix the radio and the replace the drivers seat and drive what's left of it. It's got Cold AC and heated seats so I would be happy.
That poor baby is beat! But it runs and drives. Just bought a 03 Passat to replace the 00 Passat that my son wrecked. For $1800 it was Worth it just because I had the 00’ to trade parts off of and I was not looking to resell it. Just needed a good safe car for the boy to drive. It helped that it was a car no one really wants. All it really needed was a timing belt and a brake caliper. Hard times in the used car market. I work at a Honda dealer and can find savable and resealable cars from time to time. Not often though any more.
My neighbor has a sedan 4 door accord 2007. He uses it mainly to get by, it leaks oil through a gasket. Afraid to repair it since the mechanics may ruin it. Other than that it does him good, but he does not trust it for a long road trip anymore. After the ac compressor broke. It let him down once completely when the ballpoint in front left broke. But has been fixed, bought brand new and a good choice.
This could be the case for this red accord coupe. Good for someone to get by.
For that dent id just go to Walmart buy the suction cup dent puller. Would be cheaper. It would pull it out somewhat.
Fancy seeing you using HDR again!
HDR (high dynamic range) in Camera helps you get great shots in high-contrast situations.
Just curious Man U done anything with the trans am?
That is a classic version of what used to a be a 500 dollar car. it wasnt pretty usually pretty roached, had some warning lights on. but hell engine cranked up and ran smooth and she would find all the gears that she was given. sadly a 500 dollar car 10 years ago is a 2500 car now. and wow 500 bucks cars now. honestly cars that have been on fire are in better condition
A friend of mine has a 01 Civic EM2, 148k miles and a recent transmission rebuild 🥴
I LOVE that generation of civic.
That would bring 1500 2k here in ny just how clean it is
nice car man
change all engine belts, coolant, oil, filters , transmission oil and this honda is good to go
Hey jay, how much does one of these go for now a days? In this condition btw. Anyway just passing thru and ill see the next one you post.
Save it bud 😁🤙
Hay Jay! Its a decent car ^O^ Coming from Minnesota i would rather deal with flaking clear coat and a bit of dirt and dents then RUST!!! XD As long as it runs and drives i would drive the guts out of it :P I think it was a good buy for $1000.00 :3
i wonder if you could go to another area where cars arent so in demand (is there one?), and bring back a truckload?
Throw a cheap paint job on it and fix the stuff on it and u got yourself a cheap car
I mentioned in the last one my dad's cr-v was 54k miles rebuilt title when he got it for a daily driver it now has 127 or 129k miles i don't remember which it's a 2006 ex is the base model except the awd, and the am fm cd player cassette tape player stereo is apparently a option.. and before we even got it after it was put back together after the light parking lot damage it had to have the transmission replaced at 54k miles?? and I know about the stereo code on my dad's honda crv is in the glovebox and on the top of the stereo
Is that a old cavalier hiding in the bushes I see lol
Love to have a 5speed beater with a heater 85/89 sr5 toyota, those were tough mofos.
Not only price, I'd say people, like myself, don't want a CVT or all the new "Technology" that can break. Just plain basic cars are a thing of the past, sadly.
My Father always said a car is worth what you want
Good cars ,,nice model
Since I predominantly hate Japanese cars and have never seen a Honda I would consider driving around the block let alone across town. I dont know if its worth saving, but i know its worth more in parts than it is whole
This engine is easy $900 or less or more lot of Jseries fans want to buy engines one is their blew up 2nd they are first timers.
That’s the type of vehicle that you drive around the hood when you don’t have much money because gas prices are ridiculous price for that vehicle $3000
Oil the rest of the paint for a quick sale! 🙂
The Accord 4 cylinder has a timing chain - no belt.
