The Phoenix has risin again! OMG, tomorrow is my son`s first day of school and we finished the Prelude today so he could drive! After 2 1/2 months in a 100 degree hot garage, my brother`s death and several other minor crisis, we finally made it. I promise I will never attempt a complete repaint, with stripping and bodywork at home again....ever, ever. Well, here it is again, lowered, stripped of all emblems and antenna, wiper washers removed from on top of the hood and set up under the hood. Time to rest now, I promised my wife (again). Hmmm, maybe a bit of work to one of the CRV`s is a possibility.

sympathies on the loss of your brother but noticing your plates and location can you ask him to put a good word in with the big guy upstairs for our beloved Huskers? :)

Very sorry to hear that about your brother...



The job you did on that Prelude looks VERY good... I`m sure that means alot to your son that you went through all of that so he could have a nice car. You actually will probably never know exactly how MUCH it means to him, especially if he`s in high school where everyones so "critical" of eachothers cars... I`m sure he will recieve compliments out the rear on that car :up
