Icon6 my new project

I bought this 91 civic dx for $1200. From a friend it was was all stock beside skunk2 rear lca and skunk2 coil overs. Wat else came with the car but not installed integra seats. Center console and armrest. Besides. Missing the side moldings and the off colored front fender the
car is in Really good shape no dents and very little scratches it has orignal paint and one time size peace of rust not bad for $1200. Well after I bought the car I installed the integra seats and center console with armrest. And my nrg quick release hub and wheel. Future upgrades Will include. B18a1 with hydro b16 tranny. Wire tuck and. Way down the road a turbo set up. I'm not in a rush to build this car plus I live in pa and its winter here and I'm a roofer so I'm not working at this time. But I will continue to work on it in the summer when I have more money to spend again

You should definatly find new side mouldings would be the easiest way or just shave them and get the body done if you plan on keeping it. Unless its just a beater. clean interior shell looks clean.
