I bought a 1989 honda civic hatchback for $200 and it needed a starter and the hatch doesn't close due to it being in a little accident it has 209,xxx miles on it it was cream colored and it has a 4 speed in it. i replaced the starter last night and got started preping it for paint we sanded the whole car and taped off everything and put down a coat of primer. I am spray painting the car just because it is cheap and pretty easy to do plus i can change the color anytime i feel like it lol. here are the pics of it.

This is a little teaser of what the color is going to be

and our weapons of choice

i had been up since 3pm the day before and the other guy in the pics hasn't slept since thursday so it was hard to stay awake. let me know what you think of it
