Default Saving The Sedan!

I bought this from my friends father last fall.

I bought wheels for it and put Buddyclub racing specs i had in it. New case bearings in the trans and a Exedy clutch and flywheel. Then i went to a Halloween party at a hotel and came out to find this. The rocks destroyed my rockers.

I let it sit all winter because i bought a house and have had no time. But i love this car so i am fixing it. I got some aftermarket rockers from rustrepair .com. I will only be painting from under the trim and the rockers and part of the jams until i paint the entire care. i would rather swap it in the mean time.
I will show how i do it and i hope it comes out good. Here are some pics.



I will add more as it comes along.


A couple new pics. Its coming along slowly.

thanks guys. it is really clean. it had a bit of rust on the back of the rockers and behind the left door. but that is all getting fixed with the rockers so it will be rust free. i will also be undercoating the wheel wells and painting all the trim. i also have a 91 si lip i am going to fit to it or maybe make a js crx lip work.

It really sucks to see this happen to anyone, but especially to a sedan! Hope you are sucessfull at getting everything sorted out with it, i'm in to watch your progress. I really liked those wheels you had on it (they looked so familiar), *&%#ing theives!
