CRX, re-work, re-paint, just re-do.
I have another crx that I am working on, but this one I am not getting as detailed on. I'll show some pics of what I have already done and will have some more up as I go along. I should be getting this done a little faster.
The car: 1989 CRX SI Ls swap (soon to be turboed) This is how I brought the POS home. I had to sell the 18's, trade off the nasty body kit and do a lot of body work that I did not know about. https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...A/000_2907.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...A/000_2909.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...A/000_2910.jpg I went ahead and re-did the batt box https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...A/000_2908.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...A/000_2912.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...A/000_2913.jpg Some of the surprises I did not know about. There was a patch of Bondo over this hole.... https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo099.jpg Now because of the body kit It is just to much for me to go and ether find a nice set of door trim and to much to buy them (well for this car) So I am going to weld all the door holes closed and just put on the bottom trim. Fender is done https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...ONDA/23002.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...ONDA/23001.jpg door (I am so JDM) https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo116.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo122.jpg Hole filling time https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo125.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo126.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo127.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo142.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo141.jpg one for fun https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo138.jpg A little something I made for it https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo197.jpg and this is how she is sitting right now. https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo136.jpg I have a lot of work to do. I have started sanding that damn $50.00 paint job everyone loves so much https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...s/emthdown.gif This is why I say just don't do it. If your going to paint the damn car use real paint. I'll have more updates soon and here is my other build...... https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1724721 |

I was thinking of going with this. I had a spare head light and It kinda looks cool, but I don't know how legal it is. https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo201.jpg I also got the driver fender about done. Holes are welded and I use a little bondo to get in the cracks. https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo202.jpg |

Re: (Genuine Rolla)
Well it is getting to be a pain in my ass that it rains everyday here.
Note: if you want to work all day drink the 5 hour energy drink, holy shit!!! Had it not rained yesterday I think I could have finished the whole car. OK, to the pics. Hood is shaved and ready for paint. https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo418.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo419.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo420.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo421.jpg https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo422.jpg Door: https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo423.jpg Wiper hole: https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo433.jpg And a little teaser https://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y8...orVideo425.jpg I may have to sand down the hood again, when I was sanding the black off I went a little to deep and scared it up pretty good, this may show up in the paint. O'well, I'll just hit it with the DA and call it a day. If the weather alows me I will hit it tonight after work. |
