It’s gunna be a long term project god knows how far I’ll get or what it will end up being but I’ve got most of the replacement panels to make it abit straighter… which includes..

Front bumper, front filler panel, both front wings, rear hatch/boot lid with glass and spoiler, rear filler panel, wiper arms, front indicators, replacement rear lights…

I’m still in the strip down stage at this point..































Still uncovering little issues






It’s current state






progress is slow due to other priorities and dad life but I’m in no rush

There’s probably a car in there somewhere.
Certainly a project.

I think a case of beer was still alot for that

One man’s scrap is another mans….. civic?

This is still a garden ornament, I put a car cover over it just under 12 months ago, the car cover is now developing holes and is becoming see through
I have resorted to putting up some shade sails over the Christmas period which should make working outside a little more tolerable..




This cover was only $50 but it says it has 10 years warranty obviously I can’t get hold of the Chinese eBay seller anymore ..
moving forward though I have purchased an engine for this little bucket…


High comp B20 out of a crv
Plan is keep it non VTEC but twin Weber carbs and close ratio gearbox… car will be sub 1000kg so fun to be had..

She sure does need a bit of love, but fair play to you, they're a cool car!

Opened the car up the other day to find this..


Lurvly….

Lo
Nice and crusty
