I haven't been around for a while, cuz I got a new car. It's an 87 Honda Accord HB. My sedan is in rough shape, and I really wanted a hatch since I first seen it.

Here are some pics. It's pretty stock in a couple pics, but I'm not done with it, yet.

Look at all the ugly emmissions!! ek. This motor threw a belt and it's an interference motor, and there's an auto tranny connected to it... EK!

I'm also taking most the wiring out of the engine bay.

The down-pipe gave me a bloody finger, so I had to give one back!

Here it is without a motor! This is the "Before"

This is after 3 hours with some Super Clean.

And this is where I am right now.

As soon as I get it running, I'll work on the audio. Gonna put my whole setup in it with a bonus RF200.2 for my Mids/Highs. It's gonna be increadibly loud for 2 "POS" 12's.

My latest project; 87 Accord Hatchback!... Only got my 6 1/2's in it right now... I'm working on shining my engine to show quality right now, then I'll put it in. System will come around the 1st.

My "first" car was a hatchback. A 1990 Ford Escort. Belt went on it too, interference motor. Don't know jack about cars and didn't have the money to fix it.

Broke on the way home after buying it.

Wish I could have fixed it, it was nice. And I could have done a nice system in it.

I want a Honda CRX now though.

What do you plan for this? Looks pretty clean for being such an old Honda.

I would love a CRX, as well! lol.

It only cost me $220 and I got a good motor and tranny to put in it. I want to make an original CRX-type box with about 100-120 Sq In. of port area. It's gonna be violent for 12's when I'm done.

Well... I got around to getting the max dimensions for my back. 33x15x24. Max net is 6.6 cu.ft., which would be perfect for a nice bandpass... Hmmm... Research time.
