Default My 1989 CRX SI
So I picked this car up as a winter beater and I've had some time to work on it and make it more presentable. My real goal was to make it a 10 foot car instead of the pile it looked like before from any distance.
That and put the interior back together as all the pieces were tucked into the hatch..

Before Pics:





After doing some amateur body work:









Interior now:





The car still needs to be cleaned up as there's some dust on the interior and stuff from sanding but overall I'm happy with how it turned out and I hope it makes it through the winter ok. Sorry about the picture quality, it was snowing out so I took the pics in my garage and my camera must have had snow on the lens.

Yeah, custom mixed R63 Rio Red. turned out alright. It's not perfect but it's not rust and the paint is damn close(some original spots are faded).

It should be a decent beater but I'd like to trade it for a Jeep XJ or a DA 4 door(5 speed) but I'll probably end up driving it through the winter.
