30 inches of snow. I can't even get in the garage to the civic.

:rolf:



Seriously, my thought exactly.

Props to you for bringing this one back to life. Jesus Christ someone must have hated that car.
Thanks bro. I have no idea what he was doing to it but its all really wrong. He at least welded to shave it and cut and welded the handles. So its not a ton of bondo. Just holding the bumper and side skirts was lots of bondo.

You might just want to buy a new dash harness and take anything they may have touched out. what are you going to do about the quarters being shaved, are you going to do the fenders and doors like that too? Good luck man ill be watching.

Yeah I'm gonna see about a new one. I pulled the back side plastic out to look at the back of the quarter and it only shows tack weld marks so I'm gonna sand it down to the metal where the molding would be and see about just cutting the welds and grinding it smooth again. They just put a piece of metal over them.

More hours put in. Still need to clean up the molding area more and sand down the quarter more. Also those doors are doing once it gets nice out again. Also yes I cut the quarter a little not paying attention.

Thanks guys. Good thing I enjoy body work haha. Still have the other side to do along with the 2 metal pieces that bolt under the back lights. Lots of bondo on such a clean car. At least its easy for the most part. The interior I can do fast once spring/summer hits.

Took a small brake from the civic but I'm picking back up on it.


Brand new back bumper cover.



All thats left is the rice skirts to be replaced and the doors and the outside will be back to stock. Then you guys get to see the train wreck interior.

Here's how the civic is sitting as of today and the introduction to my wrecked interior.

Sorry for the darkness.



And the interior. Not sure if this is before I pulled the half rug out but no rug now.


Took all the red parts out and sander them. Picking up interior paint and putting them back to normal.
