Default My new project. *Going Right Hand Drive*

I finally started my right hand drive project today. I have been thinking about it for a while and decided earlier this week that when I got home for the weekend I would start....

My car this morning before the tear down....

Then I took a little break to catch some lunch...

And this was the final result of a good sized 5 hour work day on it....

Tried to get most of teh engine bay done today. Going to pull the motor and tranny out tomarrow at some point and hit the interior just as hard. A fellow honda-tech member "jdmorgan" was working on it a little today when i was in the engine bay. He will chime in here sometime soon

Looking to have the car all ready so I can start drilling after this weekend...
