A month or so ago my dad (Bigpoppa88) bought his 89 EX-i because his 88 LX's engine blew. Anyways a few days ago we took some pics of the cars. Mine is the one with the clears and the painted tails...

I really don't think hes going to do anything preformance wise. But as far as looks goes I think hes going to do it nice. I know hes already painted a valve cover, and he plans on doing a new paint job, rims, tint, painted mirrors, moldings, etc. Maybe I can convince him to buy an intake.

Haha, he actually said we'd spray the cars at the same time! Only differance is mine will take more body work because I'm getting shaved moldings and handles, and hes just painting his. He used to be an autobody mechanic so guess whos doing all the bodywork on my car! :D

Hahaha wetsanding (shivers).

You got 2 nice cars! Too bad the engine on the LX broke... but I'm sure you don't mind the extra power accessories that comes with the EX-i (plus the EFI engine, oh I hate those carbs)

Yes, I'm going to be keeping it as a parts car. Maybe even drop a used A20 in when the junkyard has the engine sale on again. $100 cdn for the engine and tranny.

so how often does one get in the other by accident on THOSE kinda days. You know the ones where at lunch you realize your shoes are on the wrong feet and your going without an undershirt. Looks hard to keep track of but thats just me. Nice cars by the way

:lol The cruise could go back in, in about 10 minutes if I wanted. The A/C that never worked in the first place can never go back in! :burn:
