ok guys...today is friday the 27th of feb. day after my b-day. today really sucked. yesterday i had one hell of a time getting my hatch out of the snow,but i succeeded. so today with me having to register to go back to school and only able to work on my car for an hour and 10 min. so here is the progress so far on the hatch. total time working on the hatch is roughly an hour.don't have much room in the garage. i only have a little corner, but it is better than doing this one in my driveway. i will keep the pics updated as often as i can.

Wow, man, that's a nice looking Civic hatch. And when you're done just think of all the people you're gonna be surprising! I really like those headlights. I feel sorry for that black Si, though. The car's owner is probably still in mourning. Great choice on the engine, btw; B16A2 = 
. Whenever you get bogged down or frustrated, just visualize the end-results . Talk about a surprise sleeper!
