Default Nothing special...

I bought this hatch brand spanking new in 1999 and been slowly working on it. With the economy f**ked up and recently laid-off surviving on unemployment checks, my build will be a very slow process. Here are a few pics and unfortunately I have Rotas, but someday will get some "real" rims and a motor in the future. Last pic will have a glimpse of a clean stock EG I bought from some old lady 2 years ago (another project that I wont be working on anytime soon).

Checkout what some dumb*** did to my sister's car on Mother's day. I'm pretty proud that my sister is working on building her car, but it sucks when stupid people (her f**king neighbor) can't even turn into their own driveway!!!!!

Thanks man! Yeah, I'm looking to put a Type R front and rear lip and someday swap a motor, but need to find a another job since i got laid-off. Unemployment just takes care of rent and bills leaving me just gas money in the end. Haha!

Thanks! I know...been lagging. Haha! I use to keep this one in the garage before and use to just drive a beater CRX. Had to put a halt to my hatch since pops had a couple of strokes 2 years after I bought it and had to help the family out for awhile. Now I just got laid-off...so yeah man, might actually take me 30 years to fix it up. Hahahaha!

Its all good. Family comes first in tough situations and I don't want to sell it and give up...even though it may take 30 years! Hahaha!

You should get rid of that HUGE tach. Or at least mount it where nobody can see it.
