that a couger on the other side of the fence? one of the cars ive always wanted...

anyways, looks like you got some work to straighten out the radiator support. should be a fun project though. maybe a full rollcage for extra chassis reinforcement?

Wow, that's quite a bare bone project you've got there. Here are some good sites for parts.

OEM random stuff
http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/

Cool OEM and JDM parts, as well as Aftermarket
http://jhpusa.com/

http://www.weaksauceparts.com/...t=958

And a good engine is a must in a track car
http://hmotorsonline.com/

Would be great to see how this goes, good luck!

That's real. ****, my buds just moved out of their parents' places and roomed up in their own apartment. I gave them a 12 pack of mid-grade beer.
