Was looking at some old pictures of the CB, and decided to make a quick thread showing how my car has progressed since I bought it.
I bought this sedan in September of '08 for $800, with 205K on the odo.
The motor had perfect compression in all cylinders, and practically the whole driver's side was smashed in.

This is how it sat, basically stock except for some clears and the grill off my old '92.

Up close look at the damage.



It wasn't as bad as it looked, and after persuading a buddy of mine to sell me some parts, I picked all this up for $50.

Another $50 on generic white spray paint and clear coat.

And she's all straight.

She sat like this for about four months.



Then I became bored with the clear look, and black housed the headlights as well as the OEM corners..



Then Tax returns came in, so off to the shop she went to get tinted up.
