thanks for the welcomes everyone, this is my first Honda, always been a lowrider had a few fullsize chevy pickups and also in the middle of redoing a dime, which has always been a favorite of mine. My son bought this and after a few months decided he wanted to go back to what he really enjoys and is presently looking for another Jeep or fullsize GM 4x4. I started driving the Cord and fell in love with it. i have seen so many cool looking Hondas and my brain is turning with ideas for mine. it's my DD so mods will be a slow process as I'm not in a great big hurry. As for the hood the PO had stripped the hood because the PO before him had covered the hood, deck lid and front spoiler in pink and blk zebra print duct tape, yes I said duct tape. he had shot it with the silver paint just to cover it up. my son and i were goofing around and i said it needs a big red slash mark across the hood, so that is what we did. I figured since its under construction and will eventually be painted, what the heck. Here are a couple more shots of what I have named "Project Accord"
the hood
a good side shot, right now I'm running two different size tires, 205x50x17 on the front and 225x50x17 on the back. eventually I think i'm going to a 225 or 235 45 series are the way around. I was looking at getting some new wheels but really like the look of these so they are staying.
heres a pic of the interior mods so far, as you can see I've painted some of the dash pieces and covered the inserts on the door panels. i have also taken off the headrests.
I've rambled enough but wanted to share a little background. I'm really enjoying the site and learning a bunch thanks again for welcoming me in. I will work on getting a build thread put together soon.
