Let me know what you guys think, we only had two 2weeks to complete this job, my dad and i did all the work... what a vacation

 

Nice work!

Looks great!

 

looks good man

 

i want to see more

 

looks good, but major overspray

 

looks good! but i would left the part thats suppose to be black, black in the front bumper

 

Looks great! Paint those lil parts in the bumper black n it would look perfect!

 

noice!

 

yep vents and what not are supposed to be black

 

i think it looks clean man black or not black pieces still looks good man just people's personal preference

 

thanks guys i have been getting alot of positive response in my city glad see nobody is saying anything outright negative, just little preferences.. every thing on the car is done to my taste, i have looked at alot of convo that people have done i took the bad and good from my reasearch ,made sure the bad stay out, like spoilers , side stripes, the two bull nose holes for bumper, honda sign on front, thats just me though...

 

I wanna see more of the rear wheel well areas before and after u fixed and painted them. My car has some rot in that same location and Im interested in the way you fixed it and how it came out.

 

well man honestly the way me and my dad did it, is considered the old school way, if you have rust this bad unless you are someone you know are skilled in the art of welding with a rod, and then forming the shape and curves back your better of getting the full quater panel, easier. and still need to be done by proffesional, this the before pics of the sides...

 

No Im skilled, I would have just gone about it a different route thats all. I dont like to put that much heat on the panels. Tack welding with a mig gun would be my prefered method with some Marglass over the top. But ya your brazing skills are on par.

 

i hear you man, there a couple different ways to do it, my dad and i are all about the torch and rods, thanks man,

also, i really made this thread for people who are planning to this, in the future, so you can have some idea of what you need to do and how it will look, because for me when i had the idea to start my build all i could find was completed cars no actual build, so hear you go guys, take what you like from the car or leave stuff out that you dont, it all for information purpose....

 

any up close pics of the rear quarters after paint?

 

iam going to wash my car and do a photo shoot and post some pics in a couple days with those upclose pics

 

cant wait

 

good job man keep it up ......

 

thanks man, sorry i didnt get those pics up this weekend, had to go out of town, definately will get them up this weekend, because the car is getting dismantled for the winter and its engine sold this weekend, pic will be taken as the car goes into phase two, full suspension, brakes upgrade, rollcage...

 

nice build.. whats the plan?

 

thanks man, whats the plan u ask, well as may name says, iam building a car that runs 11's or better on a bad day in the 1/4 mile, as for what engine and tuning turbo or N/A, that your just going to have to wait and see, dont want my thread to become an opinion war, plus iam sucker for opinion wars lol, your just going to have to sit back and watch me get my my chasis ready to take x00fwhp at 3438 feet above sea level, just a hint, i alreay have 3inches all the way back no cat, borla muffler... we all know, it dont make sense to build a engine if the car cant stay on the road....

 

hey guys these are some quick pics of my car, and a couple close ups for precisionsc54,

 

damn bro looks really good im impressed

 

nice work
