Default First Build thread!! '91 Crx Dx/STD

Well..... here we go. this is my first build thread , NOT MY FIRST BUILD! , so plz be chill.
I picked this gem up for $196 and a pack of newports a few months back from a friend needing $$ and ciggs lmao .Car ran , didnt drive , (blown auto trans ). plans for the car were to clean it up a bit ,"had been in a previous wreck, some lady backed in to it", do a minior wire tuck << which may have been pointless" ill explain later if all goes well ". basically just a normal not off the wall build hence Im totaly fu*king broke.
so here is how I found her sitting ugly in his front yard ........

That is some HillJack **** right there... Good Luck with it and stop being so bored all the time. That usually gets you into trouble.

Looks like a good build man, and as far as what to do about the rust , cut it out weld in new metal only way to fix it, bondo will just make it worse and then crack and look worse then before,
do you plan on doing a MPFI swap? that with the VTEC head should be a very nice improvement
