Oldie, but a goodie... My EK build...

[TypeOne]

I'm sure most of you have seen this on other forums, or this site but I figured I'd add to the threads and contribute the build of my EK I did back in 2005. I miss it!!

The car when I bought it. Got it for a good deal, sitting in someone front yard. They tried to fix it using older busted parts. I drove it home... haha

The work you did to that ek was flawless and really inspires me in my projects......Back in 2005 when that magazine came in the mail I knew I wanted a k now finally I am in the process of doing it. Thanks for the inspiration to get another k ek on the road.

Thank you.

Stay close to our Del Sol build, it is sure going to one up this car. I build this car over 3 years ago, and now with more resources the next car will be something awesome as well.

[JDMEK4COUPE]

Awesome build Up!

[ekmike]

this is one of the cleanest EK i ever seen love it from the day i seen it in the mag. :D

[archull]

I wonder what condition the car is in since that little guy Guss bought the car from you?

Last time I saw it he had messed up the front lip and a few other things.

[TypeOne]

Thank you!

I built that car when I was 20!

Stay tuned to the upcoming mags, big things will be going on.

:-D

[civicmotorhead]

Damn i wish i had money like you when you were 20.

But this hatch will go down as one fo the nicest hatches ever!

[JDMEK4COUPE]

Any updates here bro?

[faster-than-forest]

looks good david. now you gota give me the secret on hpw you got the sound deadning out so cleanly? ive tried dry ice liquids and i just cant get it all up

[TypeOne]

Dry ice in real large chunks is the best way to do it. Anything else just makes a large mess.

Local packaging supply or bait stores around here carry it in 10lb bricks.

[faster-than-forest]

A couple of days ago i had to deliver a tire for my work to a body shop and i was there waiting so i asked one of the guys and he said grab a torch heat it up and scrape it off with a scraper or putty knife.Then grab laquer thinner or mineral spirits and rub the extra glue away.

ive tried both i prefer the torch cuz its cheaper and kinda entertaining but as far as which one works better id say thier about the same
