Default Towed CRX Project Log

7-14-05

So I bought a shitty red CRX from some guy that didn't run, the doors were dented and needed to be replaced (but I don't have pictures before I swapped out the doors and fenders.) but it did have a B-16 engine swap. and after hours of head achs new dizzy and wiring harness it ran!.




Then we painted it!

^^^ We had to show the love! ^^^

The day after we painted it my amber corners came, so we threw them on.

At this point I still hadn't painted the engine bay, and the interior needed a lot of cleaning.





So I ripped out the carpet and ordered a new one, as well as a few other goodies...




(I forgot to mention that I already put on my carbon fiber hood... Upon instillation I realized it was the ZC hood, I was pretty pissed until I was guarenteed a buy from a friend once I ordered my new one.)

Usually projects with that amount of work are at least 5 pages, good job on efficiency!

2 new engine shots. Bad cam.




Also, since I haven't been able to do as much because of money, so I updated some of the posts above to show a little more...
