Default my 93 si project car its in the works!!!!!!

for starters i bought a 92 cx hatch it had a rebuilt title. looked nice and ran nice. i got this car off craigslist!!!! everyone please do a carfax on a car before you buy a car!!!!! i took it through emissions and it passed with flying colors!!! the problem began when i tried to transfer the car into my name.........well it turns out after i did a carfax on the car that it was stolen rite after it passed the 3rd state inspection!!!! WOW!!!! this car was claimed 3 times on insurance!!!!!! how the hell does this happen????? why is this car still on the road?????? well i have a good fix for that!!!!! lol so i found a 93 si shell for 400$ and it have a clean title and a clean history!!!!!! thats rare!!!!! and the project began.....................my pictures kinda bounce around a bit sorry i dont have any complete pics yet i did the lower core support on the car today.....

here is what the 92 cx hatch looked like.....................








ok now for the pictures of the 93 civic si after i got it off the trailer!!!!!








and now for the pics of everything being swapped over...... it was quite the job!!!










and for the pics of it almost finished except for the paint!!!! it will go back to the green!!!! i love the color!!!






and for the pics of what the black car looks like now!!!!!!! i think im going to cut it up!!!!!






there will be more pictures to come!!!!!!! it will be getting a gsr here very soon!!!!!!

Nope, the majority of people will agree and say it is one of the ugliest colors honda has made.

That thumb is me giving you a dirty sanchez.

OP, your going to cut up the black one? Why not just make some cash with it by parting out? Looks like there's still some useful parts on it.

Looks like it's off to a good start.

Local EG FTW! I'll probably see you driving it around the area.

Nice find on that Si, I noticed neither car has rust. I can't wait to see it repainted, I really like that teal. A teal hatch like that with a 96-97 ITR brake swap is hot. But so many wheels go with that color, virtually any color, except red, I don't like that combo. Although black/red RNRs
