Default CRX Resto/Build

Alright so i posted my build awhile ago but it got moved to a different section. my crx is in NC, and i live in NY so dont expect this thread to be updated weekly. When i get a chance to visit back home, thats when ill be working on her. Lemme list future plans ive got for this car:
-Artic white paint job
-Roll cage
-Full interior or no interior(still undecided)
-b18a1 N/A (motor was free) MAYBE b16 swap, or Lsv in the future
-Full wire tuck
-GSR cluster swap
thats all i can think of.

good **** mark, gotta update though! got my cabin harness in the mail, its 23 years old so i thought id clean it up a bit. and the b18a1 i got for free i decided to go NA with it, meaning no rebuild. gonna drop all the money in motor mounts, transmission, shift linkage, body parts, etc.
