Opinion on 97 -98 door swap
Finally found a 3.0cl 1998 Silver on black 77 000 miles priced at $10 000U.S tax included.
Problem seems to be that the drivers door on the bottom has shabby body work on it. Lots of body filler and the hood was painted partially as if the cars bra line is visible. I guess the owner had it painted because of stone chip probably at the same time getting the door done.
My question is if i get a 97CL door at a wrecker and have it replaced the bad door of the car I might buy a 98CL 3.0, will the doors match?
If this works the car maybe worth buying because at the wrecker I may get a good deal on parts. Only $45 all you can carry out they have this a few times a year it is coming up in August. Standard Auto Wreckers is the name of the place i will try to set up a link to this place they have a 97 cl almost intacked.

why do you keep looking at fucked up cars??? even if you get a door off a junk car and put it in, it's pretty hard to get it to align correctly.
just keep looking for a good one w/ no accidents, no damages.

LOOK AT THE REST OF THE WEB SITE HIT HOME YOU WILL FIND IT
Reason I look at fucked cars is Money and good CL out there people are keeping.
I changed my mind this weekend and tried to snag a black coupe honda 98 V6 it was almost mint. Today I called they said it was almost sold pretty much they were asking
$10 000 US with 77 000 miles. I was stocking the car all weekend parked at there building close bye to my house they were in the hospital poping out a baby so they were not home all weekend.
So for the past 15 CL's i looked at were fucked up or incredible pricey. I'm pissed off today so fuckin gimme a funkin break.
