I’ve been having a blast auto crossing the Integra. It doesn’t have the most power, and it’s got enough body roll to lift a rear tire when making tight turns but I feel like I’m learning a ton and slowly getting better too! Read more...

There’s a lot of rust on the driver side of my XJ, but it’s not as bad as the passenger side used to be. Back when I first began on phase 2 of the rust repair, I purposely started on the passenger side as I thought it’d be the easier of the two sides, but it turns out that wasn’t the case. Read more...

Having finished the passenger side, it was a little daunting looking at the completely untouched driver side knowing I had so much work ahead of me.

Even though I’m making progress it sure feels like the parts pile is getting bigger as each week passes. The doors on the left are the old ones and will eventually be scrapped once I remove all the parts I want to salvage off them, but everything else is waiting to be installed. Read more...

In this post we’ll continue building out the 2x6 rocker for the passenger side. # Finishing Up The A Pillar Before I could weld up the outer rocker I needed to finish the A / B Pillars so I’d have something to weld it to. Read more...
