yep i got another one dc4 after going from my first 96 dc4 to a 88 mustang (pos) then to a 1978 civic hatch 1200cvcc 4 speed manual (ballin but rusted) then traded the civic for a 90 4 door teggy that i converted to manual but then sold it and then got a eg hatch that was wrecked but had a built motor in it and now im back with a integra shell :)
just picked her up for $780 today needs a little body work cause the guys ex gf and his streetbike messed the car up a little but nothin too bad and its a 5 speed shell with only 86,000 miles on it and im gonna be dropping the civic motor into it now time for pictures

My grandparents live in Philly and have a garage just like that. They do all the work on their vehicles as well. It's pretty awesome.
Can't wait to see how this turns out by the way. Keep it up!
