I had a crx that i bought from a guy down the road and it turned out to be a rusty POS. It had a jdm b16a swap in it that was rarely ever driven. I found a 1990 hatch for 400 bucks that had some issues but great potential. No rust has been found in this car thank god. The only issues that i have found is broken door stop on drivers side, rear bumper cracked, drivers door dented, hood bent to hell from where it hit windshield. I got it home and tore into it. Put in b16, tokico blues with ground controls, crx dash swap, crx drivers seat pan swap, new windshield, crx hood, crx headlights.

 

PICS iw ould like to see this....

got a new windshield about a month ago and cracked it the other day taking the spacers out of my hood. may just go to junk yard now and pull one and put it in myself cannot afford a new one again. Also car is missing one marker light so i just bought a cheap set off of ebay and ill spray paint them amber when they come in for the time being. Traded a sunroof motor for a Drivers door that is complete minus the door panel and traded the stock distributor for a rear bumper but im gonna wait til i paint it to put them on since they are teal.

 

i hate you southerns
always getting the rustless cars for cheap haha

i got a 88 civic dx (for $300), i'm working up.
also thinkin of a b16a(2) so ill be watching

 

good find.nice progress.

 

Car is stock Rio Red but im gonna go with the Milano Red.

 

Gonna go OBD1 here soon i am not even running vtec because of the damn knock sensor malfunction.

 

haha this reminds me of a 89 i got for 300 bucks and the hood flew open on it too and smashed the windsheild to **** it was horribly cracked and i never replaced it you could push it with your finger and the cracks would spread i even got pulled over and never got tickets for it. gota love the cheap hatches.

 

not a cheap hatch no more. Gotta figure i have like 2500 in it now.

 

looking good so far.

 

getting there GL

 

Wait!! your keeping those Si seats right?

 

The drivers was torn and worn and the passenger i burned with my soldiering iron but i probably wont mess with them anymore. I wan bride kevlar seats.

 

looks like a good project that is coming along and looking good quickly.... keep it up

 

replaced combo switch today and fixed a pin in my turn signal that was shorting.

 

is the paint way messed up? lookgsd good in the pics!!!

 

lol yeah it looks good but there is no clear left on the roof. looks so shiny cause i used wd-40 to help get the pin stripe off.

 

Hatch looks good, the fit wheels set it off well. Still wanna get that tranny from you!

 

yeah, those wheels do look pretty nice on a hatch. first one i've ever seen with those i do believe.
