My dad still has his 68 SS396 and my mom ran a red light in his 72 many moons ago. The 72 was that gold color too. He swears the 72 was faster due to the hopped up 350.
 
One of my dream cars
Pretty sure stock is a B18? If so, still great motor but I'll swap it out for a B20. .2 more liters.

Thank you. Yup it's a B18. The entire car is bone stock, except for the tires, brake pads and air filter (stock air box). A bit less than 20K miles and still smells new inside. Never driven in the rain, no food nor drink consumed in the car ever.

I wouldn't recommend modifying an original Type R. They are much more valuable in stock form. It's not just a motor, many other component and the chassis is different than GS or GSR models.

If you want to hot rod an Integra, I would get a GSR and add the parts. Or pick up one that has been wrecked or pre-modified. You can still some salvage title Type-Rs in the 20K range. The K20 motor is the one to use, people are getting near 1,000 hp. Don't know how much cutting and chopping you have to do? Even with more HP, it's still FWD. With the original 190 HP and the LSD it's magic on a track an pretty difficult to get frisky on the bumpy city roads.

However, with that said this one can be yours if the price is right.

Do you know the story of the Realtime Racing Acuras? It's basically the reason the M3 got a V8. They got the butt kicked by a Front Wheel Drive Japanese normally asperated 4-cylinder. 🤣

Oh yea definitely. In the future... Project car wise. I was already thinking GS or GSR. Also because I want a sunroof too lol. Fun little project car, plus show car and some very small track car in there too

Going with an Integra in the future would be best bc I got Mr knowledge and know it all (my uncle) down the street with his Civic so if I need anything I can go to him lol. His Civic, 95'. Dx coupe. Currently a B20V engine. Used to have a B18 before that and then the stock D15 non VTEC years ago. His project car, also car show car although it's been sitting on the garage for a year 1/2 with a blown engine begging to be worked on and running.

Del.Sol's are another good project car too it's just that I believe there is less Del Sols than Integras.

One of my buddies has a GSR. Although OEM+ stage rn it's super clean.

Or heck if I just want something cheap, CRXs are always out there.

I had a CRX and it was probably one of the best cars I've ever owned to this day. Generally inexpensive to by and maintain, it was fun to drive, and it actually had a ton of space for cargo.

The Del Sol was Honda answer to the MR2 and the Fiero. It never caught on. The should have stayed with the CRX.

True I guess
A few of my uncles buddies has Del Sols and they look super clean. Sure they have their issues but man are they cool.

I'm still waiting for ChrisFix to do an update video on his delsol as he said he was gonna turbo it sometime.

I think Honda actually committed more to a roadster and came out with the S2000. They weren't limited production and you could walk in and buy one. They have a cult following to this day. It's one of the few rear wheel drive Hondas. Closest thing to that today is the FRS/BRZ but they have roof.
 
Kicked Mrs. Littlemotor out for a few days, and was on this side of the interstate just after it happened.. Hope dudeman got out unscathed.. Snapped this about 85mph coming back from the Airport..

Wow. Looks like the tank either melted or blew. Wonder what he was hauling

I was driving to work on I-70 near Indianapolis airport one time. A semi trailer was engulfed in flames and the driver was just tooling along. I got in front flagged him over, then he noticed it just as a cop came up from begind us. On the way home from work it was still there. Truck and trailer were melted down to the frame and engine.

That's a tarp. Hope they got out.
