Here is what I got.. I bought the car in it's current state for a song. I have purchased all the parts needed for rebuild and have begun the task of fixing the front end and getting this 91 hatch back on the road! I need some help with the dimensions of the front end. I am having a hard time eyeing it straight with no refrence of what straight ever was. If you have an unwrecked ef hb can you take some simple measurements for me...I'll buy you Beer! Here is a pic with what I need as well as some other pics of my projects progress!





The old core support



My cleaned up and painted junkyard core support



Junkyard fender almost ready for primer/paint



Caved in radiator and condensor (ac removed and all the good parts will be for sale, pm me)



Cleaned up and painted (yes with radiator paint) junkyard Crx Si radiator



The Junkyard hood almost ready for primer/paint, also has been a recycled hood once before me..Also note the badgelessness..ohh, ahh!



Any other comments/questions encouraged!

 

I have the dimensions for the CRX but not civic

 

Anyone? Please? I know there are lots of you with straight ef's and a tape measure!!! I will send beer/****...lol

 

I can check for you tommorow, when I drive 130 miles to work on my track car. I have a crx, but my boy has a 90 civic, so I'll check his.

 

Ill see what I can do tonight. Im working some OT. Then dropping my head off at MOFOCO, then helping 99mrsi buy his new 90si.

Let me know what measurements you want. I get the idea from your picture but specific words might help me out a little.

i think u got the wrong fender, the one u have in the picture is from a crx...and u got a crx..

 

i have a 91 hatch
i have a digi cam
i have a tape measure

do you just want me to hold it up against my car?
any exact points??

 

I have a new core support....I just need to know where the red lines are...Basically the height width of both headlight brackets. Height and spacing where the core support bolts in...depth from the core support bolts from bottom...

Hmm..the fender is "supposedly' from a hatch...I will go compare it to my mangled one right now!

 

Damn...The ******* fender is wrong....What an e-bay lier! It was supposedly off of another 91 hatch....

This is my first Honda...So I didn't know the difference, I can clearly see now....i should have checked befroe I did all the body/prep work to it...Lol

Anyone have an ef hatch lf fender they want to trade for a ready to prime/paint crx lf fender? I will pay shipping both ways...

And if I could get any help on my measurements! Thx!

 

so you want me to take off my bumper and take out my headlights for the pics?
cause i don't really want to do that....i don't have a garage and it's -3 outside

 

I have some pics with my headlights and bumper off if that will help u at all.
ill see if I can take some measurements for ya too, I have the car in the garage right now, but the headlights aren't out and bumper isnt off anymore though, but whatever other measurements u need, i can most likely take

Ohh..that definitelt helps....I just though with this many members maybe someone had ther hatch apart....thx!

 

I had mine apart like maybe 2 months ago. theres not too many people that take their hatch apart during the winter, unless they have a garage or something. If I can take any measurements for ya without taking the bumper/headlights out I will. like if you need the measurement across the rad or something, I could do that for ya, just let me know and I'll see what I can do

 

I appreciate any help...I am heading to a local Honda salvage yard to see if they have a strait one with the bumper cover off....I don't care if I have to take it apart!
