"QD's build thread...PICS PAGE 7, 10, 11, 14, 18 and 19...

[quickdodge®]

Puregroove has some pics of it. I don't think any will be posted up until sometime tomorrow. After the meet. But I'll tell you what, lolol. Later, QD.

[87 Turbo II]

Sweet, get to see it in person before IA gets all the pics! I am so stoked about the meet. It's my first OSJC.

[quickdodge®]

Just a quick pic. Later, QD.

[Mad Mike]

Your car looks really good and the wheels look great.

[BABY J]

Ugly. Put it back like it was.

[speedminded]

Just a quick pic. Later, QD.Nice! Any plans for a light window tint?

[neon_guy]

I don't like Hondas or old cars, but I gotta respect a project like this. That car looks awesome...especially in comparison to what it was when you bought it. I'm actually a bit in awe at the time it takes to do something like this. Great job QD.

[STI101]

looks tight. you gonna keep the stock rims?

[quickdodge®]

Nice! Any plans for a light window tint?

What's that? Hail no on the tint, lolol.

I appreciate the compliments neon_guy and mad Mike.

STI01, no on the rims. I like mine just fine. If I were to find the set I do want, I would do that. Otherwise, I'm cool with where it is now. Later, QD.

[B00STedSvT]

QD..No offense..But..Is that the fnished product from the paintjob? or is it just in primer mode or something?

[quickdodge®]

QD..No offense..But..Is that the fnished product from the paintjob? or is it just in primer mode or something?

No offense taken, man. It is NOT the final product. Just stuck in primer mode with a semi-gloss clear over it. Since the body work/prep got more extensive than we thought, the price would have to go up. I was only prepared for the main paint deal so we did this. Fixed/repaired the rust and filled holes and did a bumper tuck on the front/rear. Now when I go back, it will just need to be sanded, primered, sanded and then painted the final color. Later, QD.

[Revmaynard]

And have some springs put back on. Haha.

[B00STedSvT]

Ahh ok Just wondering..The car looks good..Especially the wheels..It just needs some glossy paint and it will look waayy better...Obviously...Keep up the good work QD:goodjob:

[£G2♣]

damn that shit looks hot, for the second time on ia considering fuster-cluck, this thread havent gone to the second page yet, thats how good of a build thread it is. keep up the great work

[quickdodge®]

Thanks to the both of you. Later, QD.

[Nerdsrock22]

Wow. Looks amazing.

I eagerly await the final product.

[Gwb]

Clean as hell. I like the primer that's on it now for the sort of old school look lol. Keep up the good work

[jadakid88]

nice i knew it was goin to look sick

[quickdodge®]

Later, QD.

[FasTech]

Is it lower? Looks a whole lot lower to me. The paint looks alot better though.

[Big_Dave]

Thanks for the bizz Qd. It was great to be involved in this process of your classic Civic. Hopefully we'll have some T-shirts in soon. I gotta get you a couple of them. I guess we're gonna have to remove the honda slander from the back, for the new version! Lol.
Thanks again, Bro.

[larossa9]

i spy the colormatched Kick n' Go!!!

[quickdodge®]

Absolutely lowered.

Thanks again, Bro.

No problem. I'm glad things worked out the way they did and you got to do the car. And yes on the Honda (even minus the slander, lolol).


i spy the colormatched Kick n' Go!!!

Yes sir. Later, QD.

[puregroove]

I forgot to mention... your car looks like a WWII German helmet. haha... It's gankster...did I mention gankster? ... how low it is.

[Sammich]

even though its not the final product, i'm still digging it. if i can get my truck to that stage by itself i'd be elated. looking good, dingless

[Big_Dave]

I forgot to mention... your car looks like a WWII German helmet. haha... It's gankster...did I mention gankster? ... how low it is.
Lol. Yeah put a big spike on the roof and call it Col. Klink. (Hogan's Heroes FTW)

[Elbow]

I like the way it look, I'd take the bumpers off and put some 13x8's on it with bubble flares.

[Dirty Octopus™]

dayum QD!!! i dont know how i lost track of this homie! :headslap:

[EJ25RUN]

Cool stuff man. :goodjob:

[FRYLOCK]

i like it qd

[404 THE DC4]

is it just me or your whip seem sagging in back?

[Total_Blender]

The bumper tuck looks great.

[Sammich]

is it just me or your whip seem sagging in back?

yea it does, but i lvoe that little car. i imagine like most cars one end sags more than the other. whats the suspension setup on this car? sorry if i missed it

[itsnotarex]

I really can't wait to see how this thing turns out. I really like how faithful you're staying to the original spec. Best of luck! Keep us updated!:goodjob:

[quickdodge®]

It didn't sag. The springs on all four corners were completely removed at that meet. So the car sat perfectly level. I now have EG springs cut to the same height as the factory, heated springs.

Thanks for the latest comments. I have a new dash on the way now. Later, QD.

[1civic]

Car looks good QD... :cheers:

[quickdodge®]

Thanks, man. More pics (hopefully) to come tomorrow. Later, QD.

[PURP]

Tell Eddie to DO WORK.... oh and tell him he's a slacker ...

[quickdodge®]

Tell Eddie to DO WORK.... oh and tell him he's a slacker ...

He's the one I'm meeting with tomorrow. Later, QD.

[larossa9]

Wooo more pics tomorrow, looks like its coming along smoothly, keep up the good work

[Arm&hammer]

[puregroove]

[J-ROCK]

looks really good qd! never liked the old schools that much but this one is makin them grow on me!

[stevo_EF91]

i hate hondas

[quickdodge®]

looks really good qd! never liked the old schools that much but this one is makin them grow on me!

Well that's cool. We're just trying to bring the old school rides back to the front. While it won't get all the way out there, we can still try. And have fun doing so. Later, QD.

[quickdodge®]

Well my early 1st gen chrome window cranks came in yesterday and my new(er) dash will be here sometime this week. Now my interior will seriously start coming together. All that will be left inside is the carpet and to rewire the stereo. Later, QD.

[VooDooXII]

Ahh I've been lagging on following this thread. The car's coming together beautifully, and I love the matching Kick 'n' Go. Great work man! :goodjob: :goodjob:

[quickdodge®]

Thanks, VooDoo. More to come for ya. Interior wise. Later, QD.

[2turbo4u]

Q.D do you know about the white CVCC in Conyers? I seen it today turning on to Flat Shoals off of 138. It looked mint dude.

[quickdodge®]

This one? Later, QD.

[bpoweredhatch]

nice build qd

[Revmaynard]

How's the damage?

[quickdodge®]

There is a thread below, sir. Later, QD.

[2turbo4u]

This one? Later, QD.
Yep it looked like that :crazy:

[quickdodge®]

He lives in Lawrenceville. I hope that's him so he can get with us. The car has been down for a while now. Later, QD.

[VooDooXII]

Thanks, VooDoo. More to come for ya. Interior wise. Later, QD.

Excellent. Definitely want to see the interior.

[larossa9]

Hows the build coming QD?, i really enjoy following the progress of this build, and i also would like to see the interior, how did fixing the roof go?

[quickdodge®]

It went as planned. No real body work done. Just healed the wound itself. It will have the scar until it goes back for final bodywork and paint. Got the metal covered and re-painted so that rust won't settle in. Later, QD.

[larossa9]

sweet, hope it will continue to stay solid, good work

[©hris]

QD.... it looks amazing!!! one of my favorite classics around for sure!!

hehe u should drop a LS1 in that thing.

[Killer]

qd man, car looks efing sick!!!!!

i didn't realize you had this thread started already!!! i had been wondering what you were doing with the cvc!!!

awesome man.. .completely awesome!!

[quickdodge®]

Thanks Chris and Killer, lolol. Later, QD.

[2turbo4u]

I seen a first gen prelude on I-20 @ 138 yesterday it was pretty clean. I almost lost control of my truck, because I haven't seen one of those in years

[quickdodge®]

Update...found out today that I will be ordering a Weber downdraft 32/36 DGEV carb for this thing in a week or so. This will also get rid of my manual choke and give me electric. It will basically look like the below:

http://www.jeep4x4center.com/performance-parts/images/weber-carburetor-main.jpg

Below is a last pic of my car before the shop took it. Later, QD.

[quickdodge®]

All that is left for this car is the final paint job on the outside.

On the inside is just floor carpet, stitching the seats and hooking up the radio w/satellite (which I have Jon from American Radio doing). Later, QD.

[BABY J]

So will it pop a wheelie?

[quickdodge®]

So will it pop a wheelie?

No. Ever. Later, QD.

[quickdodge®]

I finally went by and got some "NOW" interior pics of the car for a comparison for the future of the car. Going with a rare pattern for the seats from the 1st gen Civic and a color change for the carpet. Once these two items are done, along with hooking up the radio, I'll be pretty much done with the car. To be 100% finished, I would just need to put the final paint on top. The changes to the interior should occur around January.

But here are the interior shots of seats and carpet. Later, QD.

[Sammich]

U SHOULD GET SOME G3 SEATS FROM A TEG AND REWRAP EM...THEY LOOK KINDA SIMILAR IN THE *SMOOTH CONTOUR* DEPARTMENT

[BexSican 408]

Good stuff. This car's come a long way.

[quickdodge®]

U SHOULD GET SOME G3 SEATS FROM A TEG AND REWRAP EM...THEY LOOK KINDA SIMILAR IN THE *SMOOTH CONTOUR* DEPARTMENT

I couldn't do that, lolol. Mess up the whole flow of the car and not be original. Remember I'm staying stock on this thing. Later, QD.

[Ziptied]

alot of the pics dont work further back, but sick as always QD.

[quickdodge®]

^^^ Thanks. Fixed. Later, QD.

[dallasb84]

why didnt you fix the dents?


just curious.... the flat paint kind hides it i guess.

i like it






but i hate you

[89preludesi]

freaking sweet cant wait to see it completely restored man

[quickdodge®]

freaking sweet cant wait to see it completely restored man

Thanks, man. Hopefully it won't be long. Later, QD.

[Sammich]

I couldn't do that, lolol. Mess up the whole flow of the car and not be original. Remember I'm staying stock on this thing. Later, QD.
I GOTCHA...I WAS KINDA THINKING OF KEEPING IT STOCK ALSO BUT GIVING IT SMALL LITTLE...'PERKS' IF YOU WILL TO MAKE IT STAND OUT, BUT I FEEL WHAT YOU ARE DOING:goodjob:

[quickdodge®]

I GOTCHA...I WAS KINDA THINKING OF KEEPING IT STOCK ALSO BUT GIVING IT SMALL LITTLE...'PERKS' IF YOU WILL TO MAKE IT STAND OUT, BUT I FEEL WHAT YOU ARE DOING:goodjob:

I see where you're at. But that's the good thing about this car, and something that most folks who don't know old school cars like this don't know,...cars like this one, mine, do not need any perks to stand out.

I realized a while back that it was kind of a weird cycle. You buy a newer car and you have to fix it up and make mods to show it off and be noticed/seen. You buy an old ass car and you can put it back to it's original form to show it off and be seen.

Preciate the comment, dude. Later, QD.

[Dwisforme05]

[quickdodge®]

I couldn't cut up the car to do the swap.


gonna be sick when its finished man.

Thanks. Later, QD.

[quickdodge®]

Picked up these mudflaps with the original Honda logo on them. They seem to be very hard to find. Yay me! The build resumes. Later, QD.

[FasTech]

As I said in the other thread you deleted...lol, nice buy. Oh...still buy my Accord.

[J-ROCK]

As I said in the other thread you deleted...lol, nice buy. Oh...still buy my Accord.

he didnt delete it just moved it to the old school rides section:goodjob:

yeah and that 85 would fit nicely in his collection

[quickdodge®]

As I said in the other thread you deleted...lol, nice buy. Oh...still buy my Accord.

Lolol. I'm still looking into it, man. And what he said below. I thought I had it in the OS section. Realized I didn't and moved it. Later, QD.

[J-ROCK]

Cool. I just need it gone but I DO NOT want to scrap something in such great condition.

i say you should sell it to him for 200 bux!

[quickdodge®]

I've got a couple of body additions taking place here within the next month and a half. It's going to be purty damn cool. Later, QD.

[SLow_POke]

wow. Nice haven't followed this build in a good minute, Cvcc came out great homie. to bad i don't have the patience or garage to dedicate myself to something like this. I love Old school rides

[quickdodge®]

Thanks, man. As far as patience goes, it's not that bad. This is a work nearly 4 years in the making, though. Later, QD.

[quickdodge®]

The latest developments. New wooden steering wheel (knob is on the way now) and the dealer option decals/striping. Later, QD.

[thinkskater]

i kinda wanna say your doin this as a joke. but then again i dont know ya. and you seem to be taking it seriously. idk. looks great tho man. i remember when u first picked it up. had grass growing around it n stuff.

[mushroom_toy]

Oh no...Grant. You know you wanna stay honda lol. I know they must have had some insanely rare factory option woodgrain steering wheels...? Looking good so far though. :)

[quickdodge®]

A joke? I don't get it. And yes, it was sitting in some grass behind a shop, lolol.


Oh no...Grant. You know you wanna stay honda lol. I know they must have had some insanely rare factory option woodgrain steering wheels...? Looking good so far though. :)

They do and I'm working on that, but the Grant is an old school wheel and it's smaller in diameter and that's good for the knees legs while in the car. Later, QD.

[HypnoToad]

no nardi for the civic?

[Theycall_Metue]

i'v never seen any one of those boosted!

[quickdodge®]

My latest arrival in the mail. An original wooden Honda shift knob. Later, QD.

[Nerdsrock22]

Well that's pretty dang cool. What was that OEM for?

[quickdodge®]

I don't think it was OEM. It was made in Italy and goes to the first gen Hondas. Later, QD.

[Nerdsrock22]

Interesting. This little car is going to be a rolling Honda museum.

[quickdodge®]

Interesting. This little car is going to be a rolling Honda museum.

Lolol. Maybe so, man. I'm trying to research to see if this is an old Nardi knob. Later, QD.

[djpikachu1]

are you still looking to fix the upholstery in your car, I found this on craigslist and was wondering if you might need their help.

[quickdodge®]

Thanks. I'll call them in the morning. Later, QD.

[quickdodge®]

Finally found my thread (search function isn't working to well and I didn't have this thread subscribed) and am updating it. Sorry for the bump of this. Later, QD.

[DriVaH]

car is looking good....:cheers:

[03RCode]

This thing gets better and better everytime I look at it. Can't wait to see it with the new wheels/tires mounted up.

[cpearson]

Nice knob. Looks nice and polished.

[Sol-Badguy]

I want to see them on the car!

PM me a picture if you have one?

[JITB]

a wire brush to those wheels would do it wonders! looks good tho.. maybe one day i will finally get to see this dam car in person!

[quickdodge®]

I'm going to find a shop to work on the wheels.

Found out today that my chances of having this car back by Sunday are very high! Even better, I might have it out Saturday. So I have my fingers crossed.

Later, QD.

[Revmaynard]

Congrats!

Yes! Get it on the road!

[SUNTUNERZ]

[twincannon26]

My latest arrival in the mail. An original wooden Honda shift knob. Later, QD.


i work for a mercedes restoration shop, we have two of those shift knobs there...brand new. they dont have any emblems in them, but they do say made in italy along the plastic bottom. always wondered the history of them.

[quickdodge®]

Forgot to update this thread for the subscribers! Later, QD.

[BABY J]

I hate you.

[RutRoe]

Looks awesome ! I love the wheels! What kind are those ?

[quickdodge®]

^^^ Rut, they are Carroll Shelby wheels. 13x5.5 with Sumitomo 175/50-13 tires. Later, QD.

[94_teg_ls]

[Destineal]

where the hell did u find this car?

[quickdodge®]

where the hell did u find this car?

My mechanic had it behind his shop when I was looking for something old school. Later, QD.

[Destineal]

Not a big fan of Hondas, but respect must be given when it is due. Respect.

[Mr. Clean]

can anyone else not see the pics?

[Bacon]

In for new paint.

[quickdodge®]

Coming up: I'll finally be able to start putting my emblems on as I will have a NOS rear hatch letter set coming my way along with the NOS fender emblems I already have. I also will have a NOS storage console coming with the hatch letters. This cubby hole has a roll-top door with the same wood grain as my dash.

I also have the option of one of two things to do. I can either order the material for all the seats and go ahead and get the entire rear seat (back + bench) done OR I can either have a working radio in the car. I am going to have my Sirius unit hard wired to the back of the factory radio so I can retain the factory look and still listen to what I want. I'd love to have a working radio after 6 years, but it would also be nice to finally get those seats look right. Later, QD.

I must say there is some real dedication here. Parts are not available like they are for newer civics. Thumbs up for the creativity.
