    Finally made some progress this weekend. Ide like to state again I couldnt have done this without friends.

    And please be kind to my welds lol . Im new to welding and am learning my way through this one weld at a time. I thought sitting down and learning to weld would be a lot easier haha.

    I got the last few pieces out of the trans am and its on the trailer ready to go away.

    Managed to get some sheet metal on the accord. This procress once again. Im learning as I go. A lot easier said than done for some areas lol. But one piece at a time it gets closer. Least thats what I tell myself.

    Heres some pics





    The rear end. Plans arnt final for how its gonna fit. If its staying stock ot getting chopped.

      Why didn't you fabricate a simple jig for the front end? now it is almost impossible to align the front end. This build is ghetto style but it is good to see something different in cb7 world

        It wont be any more difficult then it was, he still has all the suspension mounting points from the donor car it looks like, he will just need to go fully aftermarket for the adjustment, like adjustable control arms, and camber/caster plates.

          I mean not the wheel and suspention aligment but body panels fitment. Hood fenders, core support, bumper etc. It will be hard to align them all together back in my opinion. He cut complete front end out. If he would tuck weld few bars before cutting, front end would stay exactly in the same position.
          Apologize, Maybe I wasn't precise enough becouse my English isn't perfect

              ahh, you're english is fine, I just thought you meant suspension alignment, but yeah I think the hood is going to be the tricky/fun part haha

                      Looks like you'll need some fender flares.

                              Yea my goal for this project is a streetable drag car. Thus she ended up auto for all the drag racing reasons to be auto. Will be sweet having a trans brake and line lock to play with. That will be down the road I gusse.
