Default ekeddie builds ekannie...already BUILT thread

Ok, some of you guys might recognize my last hatch, built her over the years with many different phases, and i had came to a comfortable point where i had felt that she was finished. There were many fans and plenty of haters but i was pleased with the way it turned out, so i made the hard decision to part out and sell. In the midst of parting the car out, i got a great deal on a shell from a close friend and had a garage full of left over parts, so i bought this 97 hatch and the rest is history. Please keep in mind its been less than 2 months and i have only been working on it for 1 month, even if that. Big thanks to my great wife who put in countless hours with me on this build, that's why i dedicated this car to her. Also huge thanks to Allan-Bays, Concept Racing Performance, Kustomz Unlimited, and all the buddies that lended a hand. Any comments or criticism is appreciated, thanks.

My previous hatch



ekannie
the day i got her



Then the real work begins
































Then was not to happy with the way things were sitting so i went shopping











There are plenty more pics of the process but i feel as if too many have already been posted so ill cut to the chase, how the car sits as of now.

I think you adjusted the camber arm in the rear the wrong way.

Hood pins on a stock hood? What for?

thanks johnny
ok to answer some of the pointless questions when the answers are obviously there.
1) Car is no longer on the work meisters (blue wheels)
2) Camber is perfectly fine, might look more than what it is due to the picture but there is plenty of rubber contact so gtfo
3) Car has hood pins due to the fact i'm not using a factory latch/cable setup

Conventional batteries shouldn't be in the passenger cabin as they emit poisonous gasses. I'd try to find another place for that to call home.
