Q: How do you know you drive an old car? A: When it starts showing up at P&P. It's officially boys and girls, our gen is old. At least we can start getting parts dirt cheap. Now on to the car:

Appears that the person who drove it had the spare on the front right. I suspect that's the cause of the wreck. No badges but, appears to be an LX or DX.







I checked the online inventory for all the P&P and they are slowly starting to appear in the yards. Right now there's about 10 total in all the P&P yards nationwide (including Canada). You can search by zip here: http://www.picknpull.com/check_inventory.aspx

^it ain't that bad when your in a truck. I've driven to the east coast twice, non-stop on one occasion. I'll make a trip of if I do, maybe go check out cowboys stadium

Good to know a scrap is around. The valley(Laredo,McAllen) there are junkyards everywhere near the border!

Uhhh...Nothing new

I see tons of 7th gens in salvage yards all the time
Lol, then again, I live in the bay, where everyone is a civic/prius driver

^I've seen a CR-Z in a junk yard, its not the fact that its at a junk yard, its that its at one with a set price list.

We have one of the biggest pick n pulls around, so I understand what you're saying

But,
There are rows and rows of civics + integras/DC5's that go on about a football field length

It's quite saddening, but what you expect?
Asians cant drive :3

 
Rep Power: 285

You serious?

A "cheap" yard has DC5's.


Your right, asians can't drive haha. I know someone who works at a bodyshop and they've had a new S65 AMG in 3 times and it doesn't even have 1500kms on the odometer yet.

Im always looking for a hood or a rear bumper at junkyards. Thats a needle in a haystack, lol.

@Carnoobie..You should see the ones with blood stains at junkyards...

One of many good reasons for wearing gloves. I personally like nitrile when working on cars.

FYI: P&P listed an '04 RSX in the Calgary yard today. Whole engines are less than $200 at P&P.

Do they sniff their own farts too?

Sorry, couldn't help the South Park reference. lol.

road trip!!

Lmfao, He's like K20 HERE I COME!

Oh...it's already long gone... =/

but yes, we have DC5's in the yards, but they all are gutted the engine before it arrives at the yard :S

All I want is the interior, I already have a k20

Yeah its a common site in Ontario u-pull places, its been good for me though. Picked up some nice rims, spoiler, drivers armrest, new grille at those places. It seems Hondas and Toyotas are a target in the winter with slippery roads. The light weight doesn't help them either. Poor guys never knew what hit them. I saw a '06 dx in a yard two weeks ago. First time ever seeing one of those in a junk yard for me

i gave up on these a long time ago. now i just go to ebay. everytime i see a 7thgen its stripped to the bone and whatever leftovers are in terrible shape like in the pic. its amazing how poorly treated these cars are.

 
Rep Power: 235

^^ Just wait a little while and they'll have football field size lots full of 7th gens just like all the '88-'00 Civics... and Accords... and Preludes... and Integras... etc.

 
Rep Power: 285

^^It's just a matter of time, just because my car was worth $33k at the dealership doesn't mean it still is. In another three, four years 8th gen owners will be having this conversation.

The most civic inventory at pnp by scanning it looks like 95-97. So it took 14-16 yrs to have that amt. so for 2001, I'd expect the numbers to be similiar 2015-2017. Maybe more since 7gens were popular. By then I'll have my CPA..lol.
