well, i love coupes dont get me wrong, but i love practicality more than anything. Which is why you wont catch me with neons, or a stupid ass spoiler. But i like hatches, some love them ( like me) while others hate them..( its not your car so dont worry about it). Im also noe not to complain about ride confort. Id rather feel safe than sluggish ( used to explain suspension) i would rather it be bumping and stiff than confortable and sluggish...
which is where this car comes from...
no real options, no a/c, no p/s blah blah blah blah>>>
cuase if i wanted that crap i would buy a lincoln
or a cadallac
but anyways,
here is the basic story on this..
its a 1992 civic hatch.
here is the first pic.. meet Pursifanie
totally stripped, cleaned up... no bondo
, chassic had about 85,000 miles on it.
here it is getting painted...
The car was painted in and out, engine bay and everything. about 7,000 with labor and all put into it...rollcage and all was painted also..
The gauge cluster, since it was a vx, didnt come with a tach, so it was replaced with a ex cluster, and stats it has 160,000miles but it doesnt... the car it came from had 160K...
more on the painting process
ok, lets get down to some goodies...
