| Well some of you know i once had a ratted out ef sedan, and i have missed it ever since i sold it! here is a pic Well i got rid of the green goblin not to long ago, due to financial reasons. But i just couldnt stay away for long or from a good deal! Yesterday, i was browsing craigslist as per usual, and i stumbled across a 1991 civic lx sedan that had a "hard starting issue" and some other little issues. So i call no answer....damn.... so i wait 5 min and call again......damn no answer, i waited 5 more minutes and called from someone elses phone, and to my suprise the lady answered! I got her address and was there in 20 minutes! The car had a long list of new parts: battery, alternator, distributor, tie rods, axles and 2 tires! For some reason when we got there the car had no power, weird considering it had a new battery and alternator. We jumped it and it started right up! everything sounded good, except for the alternator making a grinding noise. So i busted out the cash and paid her. Last night i went back with a good battery and drove it back to the shop to tinker with it a little. Upon looking in the glovebox i found the receipt for the alternator with a lifetime warranty from autozone! so i ripped the alt. of and went and swaped it out at the local zone. Slapped it on, and bam problem solved! and what was even better was that no money was spent to fix it! I still have the beer tap shifter left from the old car, so i will probably throw it on! Im thinking it needs a copper roof rack! and lots of low! Hopefully this weekend i can make top hats for it, and slam it on its nuts! but for now here is how it looks I am open to ideas and suggestions on this build! as long as they are on the cheap! | |

| Did some work last night: Installed new window regulator on drivers door installed new latch on drivers door Got the left fender to fit better Installed new main relay Lubed up nasty hood latch to get hood to latch
Hopefully going to the junk yard today to get my missing mud flap, and a extra set of tophats to use as cores, so if anyone has a honda and wants extended top hats, they can be made with exchange of your originals. | |

| So when you install slam hats, do you cut the springs and keep stock shocks? If So I might be interested for the bmw. It would cost more I am sure but would be the same concept. | |

| I do like the red sedan, but it is a little too much, if you got rid of the pipes, oil cooler, and zip ties i think it would on point! | |
