Bodyworks on CRX *56k Grab a snicker*
after I got the engine running right and midly tuned, time for the bodyworks. The car is in worse condition than I thought, thus I don't plan on keeping the shell for long.
I have a friend who's an expert at paint and bodyshop hooked me up. Here he is. http://pic15.picturetrail.com/VOL596...7/67925454.jpg http://pic15.picturetrail.com/VOL596...7/67925497.jpg http://pic15.picturetrail.com/VOL596...7/67925505.jpg Passenger's side rear quarter panel :eek: http://pic15.picturetrail.com/VOL596...7/67925516.jpg Dents on door marked out. http://pic15.picturetrail.com/VOL596...7/67925721.jpg http://pic15.picturetrail.com/VOL596...7/67925726.jpg Driver's side quarter panel, like WOAH. http://pic15.picturetrail.com/VOL596...7/67925732.jpg http://pic15.picturetrail.com/VOL596...7/67925754.jpg Money shot. Since the car at my parent's house, I only get to work on it during the weekend. Omaha suck! We're gonna finish the body work next Saturday and paint it the Saturday after. |

I don't think it's THAT bad. If you have a friend that does bodywork he should be able to make it new again.
SIDENOTE: (question) With me living in the snow and all now, is it the one time salt that stays on the car and eats through everything, or is it prolonged over and over that does it? I just wondered. Like if I take my car out in the salt once, then park it for the rest of the winter without washing it, will that one time eat all the way through, or will it fade the paint only or what???? |

Re:Bodyworks on CRX *56k Grab a snicker*
lol i went through the same thing with my rex three years ago. even had a hole the same size on the pass side front fender where u do, lol. It was a rusty looking spot and my dads like "Theres a little rust here" :poke poke with his finger:" next thing i knew his finger was inside the fender, lol.
I didnt see the lower rocker moldings off in any of the pics. You car seems to have been just as bad as mine was. But i took off the moldings and found this....maybe you should check there ;) http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...MXk1NDE%3D.jpg http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/we...MXk1NDE%3D.jpg |

Would that be a REAL year, or like the type of year you when you worked at BMW. (quoted in HID thread?) Just wondering which year, because it only snows ?? months out of the year, and you could have a serious lack of experience in the snow to be giving me advise. ;D
