My name is Renae and I'm in over my head. http://www.knowmyhonda.com/forums/images/smilies/16.gif
I have too many cars and not enough room to store them. If you saw my garage, you would laugh. I have an extended garage with a workshop off to the side. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y24...y/a78ab6b5.jpg Still, it's never enough. I grew up running with FastForward; my brother was a founding member. Back in the days they ran rotaries. I'm proud to say that they were the 1st multicultural crew! Back then, it was all about the build. None of this JDM madness. I use to pull all nighters out in the garage watching my brother port engines. At 14, I would get busted coming home at the crack of dawn cuz I was out in Palmdale, Sylmar Ontario etc. My dad had a Rotary Power truck. Brother #1 had an RX4 & a Cosmo. Brother #2 had an RX2 & 2 1stgen 7's. Sister had a 1stgen 7. My 1st car was a stock turbo charged Mazda Mx6. My brother & I got busted trying to put in a larger turbo for the Mx6. As you can tell, my heart belongs to the 'racing beat'. This will make no sense to you unless you know your rotary engines. Fast Forward 10+yrs. I have a 69 Datsun Roadster that I don't want to do anything with. '70 Honda AN600 - That is the love child of Tommy and I. Our 1st build. I just got rid of my Lexus for a FIT http://www.knowmyhonda.com/forums/im...lies/laugh.gif I want to steal my brothers 1stgen Mazda Cosmo. That would complete my nostalgia collection http://www.knowmyhonda.com/forums/im...milies/b25.gif So I've been up to my ears, with Odysseys that is. Tommy and I having been building my Odyssey for the past year. It's got an H22 with a 5 speed conversion. We just turbo charged ithttp://www.knowmyhonda.com/forums/images/smilies/08.gif WekFest (w/ H22, 5 spd, turbo, Mugen kit, & Racing Harts type C's): http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y24...s/d845c645.jpg Attachment 49903 Old ones w/ H22, 5spd, Garson kit & Veilsides: Attachment 49904 Attachment 49905 Attachment 49906 Attachment 49907 Once I get my interior done, I'll have pics of that. But for now, here's what it looks like: Attachment 49908 Attachment 49909 Now onto Tommy's Odyssey. Not sure if any of you heard of the "Whitfield (sp?) van" but thats the one we have now. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y24...y/bfde0d30.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y24...y/b7cfa969.jpg He's built a Super Touring van. We were wrenching away most of February cuz we're trying to get it to Wekfest. We got stuck cuz the header and the pipes would not go where they needed to go. There are 4 pipes that need to be split up. 2 over and 2 under. It's like basket weaving with pipes. Van #2 didn't make it to WekFest but it's home now from the header fab. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y24...y/dee296f1.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y24...y/b64b9aac.jpg It also has am H22 with a 5 speed conversion. He's not running a turbo. He's flipped the whole engine around http://www.knowmyhonda.com/forums/images/smilies/15.gif http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y24...y/0fee7e8a.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y24...y/3112b06c.jpg And I just picked up the wheels for it Attachment 49910 Veilsides Stay tuned... |

here's the story of Daisy (I don't mind if you skip all this jabber and move onto the pictures :P)
I received this rusty heap in 2006. It was my boyfriends token of love to me. He bought it from the original owner in the South Bay. She was a little old lady who had it sitting in the back yard. The wheel well had nests in it! I'd never seen anything like it. She is a 1970 Honda AN600. Attachment 49834 In the spring of 2007 we decided to do something with it. We started to strip it. Attachment 49835 Attachment 49836 Attachment 49837 Attachment 49838 Attachment 49839 Attachment 49840 Since there was SOOOOOOOOOOOO much rust, Tommy felt it needed a bath in some acid. Attachment 49841 Attachment 49842 Here she is getting set to go Attachment 49843 He's really strong :wink: Attachment 49844 OMG.. after it had it's bath, we found out that the acid may have compromised the glue that was used to attach certain pieces of the car together. :shock: Attachment 49845 Attachment 49846 Off to get 6 point cage. And while she's at it... stitch her up! Attachment 49847 He's awesome and I love what he did to my girl! Attachment 49848 Attachment 49849 I had been eyeballing paint colors for awhile and wanted a color that popped. But, it had to be cute! Baby Pink with flakes did not go over well with Tommy :cry: Mellow Yellow was it... Attachment 49850 Attachment 49851 http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y24.../afterBack.jpg Some Cosmics for my little lady.. Attachment 49852 Had the original seats reupholstered... Attachment 49853 Put it all back together... Attachment 49854 Attachment 49855 Attachment 49856 and that, my friends, is how Daisy came to be. Attachment 49857 |
