CH9 JDM Rebuild in matador mica red
So this has been in the works for quiet some time, read 18 months if not more.
Progress has been painfully slow due to work commitments, going overseas etc.
The three month outlook right now is to have the car painted, engine back in the car and running.
But none the less here we are.

There has been a fair bit of work done to it over time.
Primarily the whole interior has been stripped out, as well as the wiring loom.
Dents removed and paint sanded for paint.
The car sat like that for quiet some time with little progress.

Until just the other day, removed the engine, brake booster, brake lines and engine bay wiring loom.
So here are some picture of what it was like yesterday.

There has been further progress on the car however I have not taken photos of that yet, basically it is the same just with a completely bare engine bay.

These were taken this morning.
The roof and engine bay was painted the previous day; the battery died before I could take photos of the finished product.
Will be going back hopefully on Tuesday and take some photos of it all painted.
Not easily noticed, that is a brand new front lip courtesy of Honda who charged me nearly a grand for it.


For anyone wondering the car will be sprayed in a Lexus Matador Red Mica, seen below.
