I like to think I am doing it right lol. Hopefully the finished product will be well worth the wait. Time will tell

 

Stay posted

 

Thanks for the luck .. Yea next time I will be checking the car thoroughly lol in the day or overly bright area lol. But hey live an learn so my mistake but it's an awesome process just long and drawn out. Wallet was a lot thicker when I was at my previous job so luckily I purchased 90% of everything I needed.

Aside from that I do agree hopefully this will help some one if not its an Interesting read.!

 

Thanks man appreciate the positivity. Yea I had an eg and parted from it for a friend in need. Ive been dreaming of an
Ek/Ej since 05 .. It will come together in time and I got plenty of it.!

 

Honestly man they needed the money more than I did at that time so w/e I got got but didn't really hurt my pockets just ego. Aside from that when it's done I will be visiting his house to do a smoking one in his driveway . I think that should suffice lol

HOLY CRAP I DID..? Did I miss that or what damn. darn..!!

 

I think I bit a NUKE lol. Yea fun story I have one lol left it at work. But clearly I put to much trust in strangers..! Thanks more updates soon..!

I'll post the color pics hopefully soon

 

cant believe all that, looks to be an awesome build, good luck!

 

Soooooooooooo H-T I am trying to currently get this story going again lol but its hard managing time with selling Honda's and the crappy hours plus working on the hatch. I left off with us starting to primer the car and then making sure the body work was looking good. I am not the master mind behind all this but obviously helping and learning some new skills. We are still trying to fix a lot of the messed up hack job the previous owners did to this thing. Here is are some more updated pics

 

The last picture my buddy sprayed some black paint so he could make sure the body lines straight. Pretty cool how it actually worked out














Body lines looking good and she is ready for the final primer and paint. I have decided to go for a Satin white.

 

Anddd here she is....





























I am painting the duckbill, side skirts, door trim white as well so everything will match. I thought about keeping the black accents like the side skirts..etc but after browseing H-T and google definitely decided to keep it clean and all the same color

Excited to put all the new trim I spent a small fortune on







Hopefully these tail lights and headlights look good or I will just go back to stock or hit up password for a few things. Would rather put that money in to a few other things so hopefully they will last me through the winter or when ever it finally gets on the road

 

Doors go on this weekend but of course Honda doesn't just sell the hinge pins you have to buy the whole kit. The current ones are obviously old and warn out so some how they have to be replaced. Honda makes you but the hinge the pins and a few more things and the total cost with my employee discount is like $435 I think a side cant remember but i needless to say was shocked hahaha. This seems to be a common problem for honda and there is no easy fix people just have to deal with a saggy door. I will note the fix after we come up with something, my buddy thinks we can retro the pins from a mustang so we will soon see.

Other than that expense I forgot to buy new weather strip for my doors which is $91 a side so gotta check parts and see what I get off. Always using Ezhondaparts.com so easy and they communicate with you great! FYI

 

Ill have a few better pictures this weekend and hopefully with the doors. Still need to paint bumpers, Hood, skirts, trim, spoiler, mirrors, grill, door handles and front and rear lip. Slowly but surely coming together. Sorry for the scattered pics and extended time in between posts just been super busy. Be back soon.. "famous quote" lol

 

You're fired.

 

sounds good.

 

Doors on and stronger because of using American hinges. No sag in the future

Fitting good with fenders

So while i have been purchasing a ton of parts i have also been doing necessary maintenance. Did the spark plugs, wire, check distributed cap everything looked fine. Also did oil change and soon to do tranny flush. Once the radiator comes in i will obviously change the coolant.

 

I have been awhile for about a year so I'm am quickly updating you on the progress since my last post. The car is completel pretty much now but will just keep posting pics to show you the road to it being finished. As I have mentioned to y'all this is my first honda build and it has been a serious learning lesson lol both good and bad.
