Stcopley's LSV EK Hatch

[stcopley]

Hello,

Well, now that I have gotten everything much more organized, it is time to start this build thread again. This is my first build, but I am making sure I do it right the first time. I will be open to all comments and trolling. Any criticism good or bad is welcome on this thread.

Here is the 1996 DX Hatch when I first bought it back in June of 2012:

Shortly after I got it, I bought my first parts for it to make it more comfortable as a daily driver. These parts consisted of an SI gauge Cluster. GSR Leathers, Ebay short throw Shifter, Speakers all around, and Ebay shift knob (now spoon duracon knob).

This car is going to be completely built from scratch by myself.
