Dude, let me be honest. I came into this thread when you first posted and although I was admiring your will to “restore” this car, I had no idea this is where you’d be just a few months down the road.

Seriously impressive.

+1 for “expecting this to end in some half-ass cleanup”

paint looks great, can’t wait to see it come together.

Those parts likely wouldn’t hold paint well and chip up, best bet is flat black like they were from the factory.

super cool. idk why but the jdm parts always fascinate me. Sometimes i would rather have a mid 90s car that was japanese made rather than a brand new car… just because of how interesting some of the parts are
