It now has 204K miles and the moldings were shaved but the job wasn't finished, it was done the right way, I just need to finish sanding. Otherwise heres what I need to replace/fix that I know of so far;
windshield
struts
brakes/lines
fix rust
repaint car original color
needs rear bumper
side turn signals
missing all interior behind front seats
rear windshield wiper
hatch lock (prolly fill hole)
has no batery tray- locate to hatch instead
has no batery
missing tons of screws/bolts misc. parts
replace all bushings w/polyurethane ones
no engine/tranny/shift linkage
sometimes it seems like a lot and sometimes it doesn't, now that it's getting warmer out the parts are staring to trickle in

I would NEVER dare take my car there again...i know its under a new name but they fucked my friend over real bad. My friend kept on contacting them and they never answered the phone! My friend have them do an LS v-tec swap and it ran shitty as hell. That Parnell guy told him not to let the v-tec hit until he drives a 1000 miles so he had break it in. Well the 1000 miles came up and my friend gun it and the v-tec did not work at all. Grey smoke coming out of the exhaust and it wasn't a good thing. SO like 5 months later the v-tec still hasnt work. We finally went to this shop and got a new v-tec solenoid and put in a fields v-tec controller. Well the v-tec finally worked and that shit pulled hard!! Too bad it only lasted 2 days cause his engine blew into pieces
Well 3 g's down the drain and i feel so bad for my friend
Well now he got a b16 and he is happy with it. Just thought i'd share it with u ppl.
