Default 1990 Honda Civic DX - clean and slow

Here's some more recent pics of my girlfreind's car. I did alot of work on it over the weekend, tracking down a mysterious one time only case of running warm and changing the oil.

1990 Honda Civic dx
196,xxx miles
D15B2
Automatic transmission (yes, an auto!)
Power steering AND A/C (needs new compressor)
OEM Honda tape deck with Dolby Stereo and anti-theft (from a Honda Del Sol, was probably the sh** back in the day)
OEM Civic Si/CRX steering wheel
OEM passenger sun visor with vanity mirror (from a 1991 Honda Civic LX sedan)
OEM 1992-1995 Civic floor mats
OEM cargo cover
Integra LS mesh wheels (can't remember tire brand/size off the top of my head)
Near mint interior

I reupholstered the seat yesterday.
Before:


After:






Washed it while she was at work








Sorry for crappy pics, it got dark as soon as I was done washing and I have an older camera.

Older day time shot.



In the past year we've replaced:
OEM headgasket
OEM timing belt
OEM water pump
OEM head bolts
Alternator
Axles
Distributor with new coil pack, ignitor, cap, rotor, cap gasket, dizzy o-ring
Valve cover gasket
Exhaust and intake manifold gasket
K&N air filter

The muffler and radiator were replaced by previous owner just before she bought it (was an older guy who wanted a more comfy daily after he retired).

I had to wait for a long time, but one eventually hit the junk yard with a good passenger seat and I just scavenged the cloth from it and recovered her seat. Cost about $4. I also have a rear seat cloth from an 91 Si that I plan on installing once we find some good shape fronts to match.

It's Chianti Red Metalic. It has no rust except for a dime sized spot, a couple scratches, front fender is slightly dented and the paint on top if faded. It's a ten footer but is in amazing shape still.
