any place in particular you're gonna get the motor and axles from? you getting a motor and tranny combo or do you have one of those sitting around too?
Yea, some of the welds look good, but some look like **** cause there are spots that are hard to reach with my fat hands like on the sides near the fenders. The metal is sitting nicely. I've had to hammer some parts, but nothing major. As for the motor, I might try and get one from my GF's dad since he has a salvage yard. I'm just waiting to get a motor from an Automatic Prelude since those can't really be red lined. I already have a tranny, but I just need to change the 5th gear syncro.

If I can, I will. Just have to see what will need to be cut and spliced first. I know wiring to the doors will have to be redone, cause the harness I got with the clip was cut
