Default My 92 CRX resto (Aus CRX)

hey peeps, another aussie crx to hit the pages.

so i've owned 6 of these now so i thought i'd go all the way with one and clean everything, make sure there was no rust etc... reason i've owned 6, well i've been overseas a few too many times and always come back wanting another but this one i'll keep
The green thing next to it.... well, thats the abortion that i bought for parts. It's got a B16 in it that will be placed in the shell. trust me it wont look anything like that.... thing!
Most of the work i'll be doing myself, along with painting etc.

Let me know what you guys think...

as you can see the car has been painted way to many times....

the shell is quite straight and now has no rust, the belly will be getting sprayed hopefully today and the bushes for it should arrive today too so i can spray up all my suspension and put that back in.
total outcome though, i just want a clean crx, one that i can drive whenever my 05 Max get's boring.

It's not getting painted on the outside, instead i'll be vinyl wrapping it matte black (like the dubai cars and all the lambo's etc in America) reason being no-one does it here and i'll be starting a business from it.

enjoy! pz

i have a B16a1 from an siR... it hasnt got any work done to it yet as im concentrating on getting the car back on the road..... then i'll turbo it down the track once i get bored of it.

few more pics from tonight. I hear you all go "eww yellow", but it's easier to see sh*t on the inside should you drop anything while changing parts... plus i had alot of it left from other cars, so i didnt cost me anything either.
