Well figured I'd say hey. Grew up in London England and moved to Georgia.
I've been around EF's for a while now.
My daily is a 2005 civic si.
But that has only been for a couple of months now.
Up until that it was my 88 crx si. She currently has 350k on here. Still ticking and used by family members and some of my EF Brothers. Had her roughly 12-13 years now.
My other toy is a 89 civic si. She has really bad rot we have decided that after 220k she has had a good life. She is a Canadian model but she has been through a few swaps. Currently in the car is a B16 with a LS tranny. The motor has just over 45k on it.
Since my other toy is going to go to the great heap in the sky she is donating some of her parts to a 90 civic and we are performing a shell swap and RHD at the same time. This is taking a while since finding parts etc.
Being the only bread winner in the house my RHD conversion takes a little time.
I've got two great kids and a loving wife. She seems to have the same car addition as me. Yes I married a car chick so it is good in our house.
Explaining I'm doing a RHD swap oh OK honey. Only condition is you have a sensible daily driver. That is where my 2005 civic si came in.
Apart from the fleet of Honda's there is my 88 mustang svo that I am restoring and the wives 2001 land rover discovery SE7.
So Hanging round guys who have wagons tends to rub off on ya. As of today I picked up a 1990 civic wagon. It is sitting on skunk coil overs. Missing an engine. But that was the easy part. I've got a messed up passenger fender and a messed up hood. Kind of gives it character but I'll fix them later. The guy I bought it from is giving me a volvo lip to got with it plus various other things as well as a jdm cluster that was in his hatch. The guy needed to part with the wagon cause police officers did not like too many cars in the yard. So I got it for a good deal.
Main goal for this one is to clean it up and then drive it.
Picking up the wagon now allows me to take my rex off the road. Go through it and give it to the wife.
Nice to meet ya.
