Well guys, I thought I would share my build up with the fellow TIers.

Its a 1991 Acura Integra LS

And so she begins, all molested and raped.




I put on the paseo wheels, because it was even more of a truck before with its 17" Diablo wannabe rims.

Sexxed up a little bit




And then we started taking out her insides.


The temporary sunroof cap





The previous owner had some pretty intense steel side skirts on the car, so off they came,



And now, some more ripping apart
Out comes the antenna


And then the taillights


And now all interior is removed


Decided to go for a temporary custom exhaust


Off comes hood and headlight


Trunk filler piece is now off


Both doors off


Old hatch off


Left fender off


Gay engine bay


Whole rear off (Rust Mania)


Aftermarket quarter panel


Cleaned up her rear end a bit.


Then we did the axles

Now the whole front end is off


How she currently sleeps in my garage




Sleeping at night


Treated her to some rust removal and protection

Will update often

Rear end rust removal and treatment - Needs some patch welding, picking up a Lincoln Electric Feed Welder this week


Now body work finished on the driverside quarter panel, which is where most of the work is needed to be done.

lol

 

^^ for real this looks like a huge undertaking

 

Thats what its all about, I wanna make sure my car is in top condition, I have all the blueprints planned out for her and all, hopefully paint next weekend

 

if i stripped my car like that, that's how it would stay cuz i wouldn't have the time or motivation to put it back together.

 

get rid of that wing and scoop for the love of god.

 

^those were the first things to go.

 

As you can see, the 3rd picture.. they mysteriously disappeared ZOMG!

and yea, the interior will only consist of two front bucket seats. staying gutted... track baby!

oh WOW thats nice love it with no side moldings im doing that this winter

 

Dave YO - yea, im painting it myself, either myself or my dad, not gonna shave my side mouldings though, I like it better w/ the side mouldings, more old school look. And I already have access to the good stuff to mask up the car ... thanks for the pointers guys. Oh yea, wondering how you guys remove your windshields or if you know any way to possibly do it, I have some rust to fix there, and I need a new windshield anyways.. any tips?

 

bigger hammer!
