Default Project CRX just arrived....

Finally got the Crx home today. It cost me $650 canadian which is about $480 US. So in my opinion I got a decent deal considering how rare CRX's are becoming around here. Most people want $2Grand or more for them around here....

Here is the first pic it's a pic of the back of the car(notice my monster garage painting on the wall :P yeah I had left over spray paint and got bored)



Here is a pic of the cancer on the passengers side rear quarter:



Drivers door cancer:



Drivers rear quarter:



The super clean motor



And my two mechanics



Again this is just gonna be a project car, I wanted something to build to race so I dont' really care that much about looks, I'll fix it up and maybe put a nice tasteful kit on it later, but it's gotta have some go first though.

I think I'll haul the motor and transmission and clean that ---- up do the mpfi swap and start the turbo right away. I have a new door lined up too. I may have to change the tranny or cables it dosnt' seem to want to go in gear, we'll see when I get it hauled out. I can't wait for that first test run

That looks just like my hf when I picked it up. Same color and everything, except we don't have cancer in So. Cal.
Good find. Update us when you get it to "beast" status.

Damn, look at all that rust. Bah, ---- it, as long as it's fast. For less than $500US you can't go wrong.

Yup drag sucks so I'll be putting a better door on it at the very least for this year. The rust in the quarters is just weight reduction though
Thanks for the commments guys I can't wait to tear into that bitch.
