Cluster works fine, all of the gauges are working great along with the speedometer and odometer. No major issues at all.

Had the valve cover off a little under a year ago to perform a valve adjustment and the valvetrain looked amazing for the mileage. Car doesn't smoke. It runs great. No major engine work to my knowledge.

wow it does look clean for a known 350k+ mileage!! I have a 91 civic hatchback with a d15b2 just all stock. I have been wanting a vx for sometime im just a tad skeptical with this one cause of the mileage. the only reason I would purchase would be for the drivetrain cause of the mpg. I wish we lived closer so I could see it in person! but I will be in touch. ill have to figure out how to pm so we can exchange numbers.

That Autocheck mileage could be wrong. I've seen mileage records that made no sense in Autocheck and Carfax reports.

This is true. I've seen that before. Places like Jiffy Lube can add "service notes" now. If the tech enters the wrong mileage, it will be reported on the Carfax. If it goes unoticed the report will be screwy.

My title just reads exempt now. I'll provide the Autocheck to anyone interested.

Gotcha. Don't really want to meet cause I'd need to get back home.

I have the car advertised on Craigslist locally. I've gotten some pretty good feedback, but no takers yet. Just a matter of time, no real rush.

Bump! Getting a lot of local interest now. Showed it today, but the buyer had no idea what a VX was.

Proof that it was fixed right... I didn't just bend the old core support back into place. I bought a new support and had it spot welded.

*Note* The frame rails were inspected and were not bent or damaged!!!



Here you can see why the hood needed to be replaced. It's platidipped red, but could use a thicker coat, it has started to peel. Otherwise, just get it painted Milano..



And, proof that it will clean up nicely... This is right after a buff and seal...
