Brandon was posting off his iPhone. It never works right.
Anyway, the car is a 91 940 SE. 186k, good red interior, IRS with LSD (yeah, I made sure that worked
).
I spent today doing little things to the car as Brandon was at work. As as seen in the pictures above, the single stage white was badly oxidized. ~4 hours with a Porter Cable 7424 and Mizerna Super Intensive Polish brought the finish to an acceptable mirror finish. Much polish work is still needed to get the finish to a showroom level, but this a good start. I can see my reflection in the white in bright sunlight as it currently stands. The bonnet has a dent, so we will have to source another.
(Ignore that POS ricer Prelude in the background. Sidejobs.........
)
Anyway, the next step is removing the interior completly and cleaning every component, as well as repairing/replacing anything that is broken. I charged up the factory R12 system with propane, only to find out the ac compressor is making a terrible racket. It was blowing ice cold, but will need a compressor replacment before the system can be used.
Rear Nivomats are worn and sagging, so coilovers here we come!
That's the lowdown as she currently stands. It arrived at it's new home yesterday, so I consider the progress I've made today to be quite good.
Here is the Honda him and I have built:
Bumper removed due to clearance issues with the trailer when she was being hauled to the tuning shop.
Updates soon!
