My wagon is going to be a LeMons racer!

Band Wagon
Hey all,
My family has been driving Civic Wagons since 1985, and has had 4 of them.
In 2001, I built a special wagon up for my mother to use, starting with a 91 RT4wd 6 spd, adding a D16Y8, ground controls, Konis, poly bushings, Civic EX brakes, and more.
She drove it for 10 years in New England winters and now it is really trying to return to the earth and won't pass inspection and parts are literally falling off. I have now re-appropriated the car and it will be the second car my team has prepared for a 24 Hours of LeMons race.
The build starts this weekend, the car will be gutted, caged, have the headgasket, wheelbearings and tie rods replaced, along with adding a few gauges and whatnot, with lots of weight reduction.
I'll post up a build thread here as we go.
Nice to see a good community for these great cars.
Here is my car as it sits now:
