Ok guys So i have been Working non stop on my hatchie and have become so inspired with everyones mods and unique ideas on here so first of all thank you to everyone for the inspiration and thank you in advance to whoever posts on this thread . sorry in advance if i babble
so for starters i have a 1986 accord hatchback.
HERES WHAT I HAVE DONE TO DATE ....
Fixed all the mechanical parts the car is running great nice and strong
i replaced the entire cooling system clutch changed belts everything that would wear with age. my ac and power steering were already failing so i removed those and also the cruise control which freed up a bit of my engine bay
my next project was the body work getting rid of all of the dings and scratches not to many was able to get the body looking nice with very little bondo
looking on prelude power i found that alot of the 2nd gen guys were modifying there bumber to fit the 3rd gen. and i remeber that we could fit 2nd gen prelude bumpers with some modsso i took on the task of modifying the front bumber to fit the 3rd gen as far as i know mine is the only one with a 3rd gen bumper
pics will be up soon
as of now the car has been primered I am holding off on the paint job until i get some work done on my engine heres where you guys come in i need your help.
I plan on rebuilding the engine not to many problems now just want a reliable engine... once the engine is out i will spray the engine bay and finish the paint..
