Updated pictures throughout the thread

Here is my 91 accord, no abs, no ac, base model accord. The 1st pic is of how the bay was when i started, pretty much stock. I should have it painted by the end of this week. Removed all seam sealer, welded up all the holes, ground them down, starting to bondo smooth now. Will upload pics after each day! Let me know what you think =) and any suggestions are also welcome, this is my 1st time so im not even 100% sure which holes i can and cant weld up :scared: but most of them are going :thumbup: Also puttin in new motor, and converting to 5spd. Repainting the whole car BMW Carbon Black.
