The shell is free! If you’re Chicago local, hmu on IG @boosted_john HUGE THANK YOU TO MY FRIEND ROB FOR HELPING ME WITH THIS TASK. Rob and I stayed at the garage until almost 11pm 3 nights in a row stripping this car down to it's shell. You are a real one Rob. Thank you
Hey John, just wanted to point out that you should keep the front core support, all the glass, trims, and moldings. You could resell them for some extra money especially because their oem parts
Want to buy parts? My 97 was totaled by a hit and run. Hit me with a trailer and really fuqed me up. It grabbed me and was a dead stop and spin to the opposite direction..
Bag and tag all those bolts and misc. hardware! This Civic had a crazy history starting off Red, then painted gray with a black engine bay. Paint that bad boy Red again!
Your garage looks like mine. Traded a buddy an Acura TL for 2 EK hatches and an EK sedan. One of the hatches didn't have a title, so last week we chopped it into 3 pieces after doing everything you just did, lol. So I've got 1-2 car interiors worth in my garage along with all the other parts and a K24 on an engine stand he threw in with the deal 🤣
Cool thing is when you fins a shell it open up so many options, seeing you have everything to make another complete car! Making a positive situation out of this forsure
youve been thru so many cars and the whole time ive been here i still have anon running eg with fully built b20v and a busted ass gsr trans. maybe one day ill get it done, and youll be 4 or 5 cars down the line by then
Man looking at that rear quarter panel is like watching your kid come home from school with their face mangled from a fist fight. 😵. I'm glad the car is in good hands.
Yep, I remember the day this happened... I remember getting up,making my coffee and lunch, left for work, then BAM.... Air bag in my face, looking at a brand new motor mount touching what's left of the windshield that was completely ripped from my car. Other vehicle...🤷 I don't know what hit me or from where. We (police and everyone) think it was a big truck pulling a trailer and hit me head on in my lane... Never even seen him...
Hey had a question i was hit in the same spot on the passengers side i wanted to fix it but didnt know yet if the car was savable or not could you let me know if you were able to save your EK
So, will you try to fix this chassis or are you re-shelling it? I remember you saying you would try fixing it, but I also remember a couple people offering to sell you good condition chassis.
You should make a video of how much you spent on all your cars like how much you bought it for and how much you put into it so far before the hit and run of course… I want to see a video like you did with the lsvtec one where you had a list and explained the amount ect..
Wanna sell the right rear quarter panel? Everyone I've found it's always cut wrong and not cut with the spot welds. If you want to sell it I would gladly buy it and pay for the shipping!
Don't know. It would be nice and you can built a tubular chassis or replace that damages parts for tubular parts. As I said It would be great and It would be interesting 🤔
I wonder how much a good body guy would charge to fix this 🤔 I've seen cars in worse shape look perfect after little work by the rite body people. I hate to see a civic hatch go Luke this. 😭😥 glad u was OK tho. 👍

To add to you comment. I need that front end!!! 🤣
This was pretty cool to watch!...Also can see how the previous owner "cut corners" in Painting the Exterior & Engine Bay LOL....
The previous owner did an incredible job on the paint work.
@@boosted_john Not painting behind the Brake Booster if you consider that Incredible paint work....well then ok!...
Sweet, so glad you’re ok after the accident.
Me too man. I appreciate it.
Bag and tag all those bolts and misc. hardware! This Civic had a crazy history starting off Red, then painted gray with a black engine bay. Paint that bad boy Red again!
Whew. That was a tough one to watch. Best of luck to the future build mate. Cheers

You have the right idea my friend 😎
The silence at the end where the camera pans around the shell of the car was honestly almost painful in a way. Almost made me tear up lmao
Me too
Sad to see that one go… but glad your all good brotha
I’ll be happy to take any free parts! 😅

The silent start had me checking my speakers out over and over to see if things were working, not gonna lie.

Thanks for anotha one notification squad
You should cut the front clip, cut behind head light buckets.
Most Honda's are hit in the front.
So, will you try to fix this chassis or are you re-shelling it? I remember you saying you would try fixing it, but I also remember a couple people offering to sell you good condition chassis.
Sad to see it go out like this but at least the parts will be used for something. RIP EK 😢

Not a bad idea.
look for a clean Ek shell and your all set
If your selling what would you want for the interior minus the seats
Not sure. Message me on instagram @boosted_john
I need the side plastic on the right side rear one !!!
Message me on instagram @boosted_john
Ngl those inner fenders are mint compared to most eks around me 😞
Is the b18a1 a gsr or ls?
HONDA CIVIC EK STRIPPING ASMR

I would sell the whole shell. Message me on instagram if you’re interested @boosted_john
I would re shell in to a ek coupe
I think you can fix the shell!
I don’t think it’s worth it the whole chassis flexed the roof is kinked
Facts
Don't know. It would be nice and you can built a tubular chassis or replace that damages parts for tubular parts. As I said It would be great and It would be interesting 🤔
it can be fixed but the shop labor will be more expensive than getting a new shell
Rip the ek
This car was so nice 😢
Yup 🙉
I wonder how much a good body guy would charge to fix this 🤔 I've seen cars in worse shape look perfect after little work by the rite body people. I hate to see a civic hatch go Luke this. 😭😥 glad u was OK tho. 👍
Are you actually a certified mechanic?
I worked for Mercedes and tesla.
Why not turn the shell into a racing simulator
I cant afford to sacrifice the space for that.
Maybe one day or bring it back to life by cutting everything out and making it a set drag car
There nothing left of the shell lol at least leave the oem stuff and the cheap headers
First lol
I think you might be cappin on this one m8 😂
