Default My Real first Car.....

whats good H-T i have been a memeber here for a some time and havent had a car of my own to show all you guys!!! long story short i had a 88 crx with a 94 gsr but i couldnt get the car to run do to electrilcal issues so i junked it and i finally got enough money to take on a new project. keep in mind when i got this car was a bone stock 93 dx auto coupe and with the little money i had i made it what i could.... the car isnt done yet but i figured while i was sittin around i would put a couple pics together and post them up.

i dont have any pic of the car when i first got it so this is after i sanded the body did the body work and primered the car



this is a pic of the engine bay after i pulled the motor and before i painted it



a pic of the suspension i got from my friend for a crackhead price




lil history behind the motor... i got the long block (94 b18c1) for free for doin a swap for a friend of mine. the motor had absolutly no power in my boys car so i did a full bottom end rebuild with all oem internals and cleand up the head considering it didnt look to be in bad shape... the tranny is a 95 gs-r i bought for 100 from the same kid that gave me the motor. the only thing wrong with it is that ia has the smallest 4 gear grind nothin i cant fix in time....



a couple pics of the engine bay after me and a friend painted it




and as it sits as of 45 min ago with them motor in and ready to start all i need is a dizzy, fuel filter and line, battery, spark plugs and wires...






i still need some suspension pieces to drive the car but it will all be done in a few weeks. the car is gunna be painted the same as the engine bay aswell as the interior!!!!

let me know what u guys think ??
