Cool Wraith's project CB7 – The resurrection of “OLD BLUE”!

Well as most of you know my last project car (a 93 Honda Accord) was totaled in a very unfortunate wreck on April 22nd 2009.
Here is the LINK to see the pictures from the wreck: I am lucky to be alive!!!

So after a lot of different ideas on what to do for a new project car; I finally decided to try again with another CB7. I was very lucky that almost 95% of my upgrades on my old Accord were still good and buying her back from the insurance company was not that difficult considering they had no idea what she was really worth.
I searched for a while and finally ran across and good deal on a 5-speed 92 Accord LX. It was not in the best shape, but it match my criteria for a new project car; clean title, already a 5-speed (I had to convert the last CB7 to manual and that was a big pain in the ass), and was free from 99% body-damage. I lucked out and found one that was still running/drivable so I could save on towing costs and now I am the proud owner of a premiered, shaved door handled (yes I said shaved door handles and no I am not keeping them that way I still have three good doors from the wreck and now all I need to find is another driver side door) P.O.S.!
OH and BTW and you have to love those awesome taillights!

I plan on keeping this thread updated from start to finish of this Old Skool CB7 build so stay tuned!
