So this all started when a friend of mine was talking about a friend of his that blow the engine in his h22 and started parting it out instead of fixing it so i went and saw it and asked what he planned on doing with it. and after i heard he was going to scrap it my heart jumped because altho it doesnt look like much for quebec it is nice and rust free. even tho im poor ( a student with 2 kids and an apparmtent) i got it for 300$ and was going to fix it over time. i have thought about selling it here and there when times are tuff but everytime i go out and look at it i refall in love with it i love the body style. it is Nice.
Here is a pic when i first went to see it.
it was in bad shape didnt come with much but i couldnt let a nice rust free honda die..
here are some after it got yo my house.
here are some as of today:
i added the Supension,sunroof motor and sunroof, clear tail lights and alot of cleaning lol
i started cleaning the engine bay and inside. i want to rock gaurd inside the wheel wells and paint inside the engine bay sometime this week. i like alot of the cars here and i dont know what im going to do to it on my budet i want to deatail it and paint it but going to have to start getting more parts lol .
Let me know what you think! its bad but Clean!
i think its doing better in my driveway then in the scrap yard. i keep it under a rain proof car cover all the time.
Ps on a funny note the car was covered i had just moved into my new place and the landlord left me a message on my saying i need to remove my car that is under the cover cause it leaks.
I cant wait to get some cash to start making her beautifull again like she once was i have a friend that is going to help me paint her just need to get some parts. saving up for a bodykit now and some vented fenders.
So Update is i still have the car it has a nice warm place to sit for the time being im in the middle of taking it apart and getting it ready for paint, ill post some pics tonight
here are some pics i found this is what it looked like sitting at my moms house its come a lone way since the day i got it in the first post. there is also a pic of where it is now inside from the snow!
so i pulled the carpet up and found a good sized rust hole where the pedals go how would i fix a hole like this so it wont come back? grind the rust away?

If you have access to a welder I would cut that whole piece out and weld in new sheet metal. Then prime and paint.
You can also go the cheaper route I guess. Grind the rust away and coat all the exposed parts with some type of anti-rust primer, tar, coat etc.
Good work on the Lude btw. She is coming along nicely!
Thank you. She is coming alone i have most of the interior still missing the shifter everything lol only got the cables. she has come alone from when i first got it . its on spares now but i got mags for it.
