Where do you find NOS BNIB parts?

 

These where on a local selling site, something like ebay I guess. I've seen these last year when I was searching for my 88-89 new tail lights. I was surprised to see they still had them laying around. So this was a lucky find I guess.

Today I started taking the crx apart. Started on the back, because I hadn't checked the rust problems there yet.

Didn't find to much actually, less then I was expecting that is for sure :D

Drivers door, two small spots of rust (surface)




Passenger side:




Rear drivers side:


Passenger side:


That is about it for the rust on the rear end. Doesn't look to bad to me.







Maybe doing the front somewhere this week. But not sure if I feel like doing that after getting home from work :P

It does look pretty good, But has been cut a bit around the headlights, some deep scratches. And couldn't just let this go by. Not easy to find these brand new I think. These might still be available, don't know.

Another piece came in today, BNIB sunroof. The last one, maybe? Who knows, I'm just happy to have found one.

And we're willing to bet that the CRX won't be at the bottom of the short list--particularly if the CRX in question is an Si."

Well, some updates, weather has sucked over here so didn't really feel like doing anything. I also bought another car, which has cost me some build money :P.

This is what took a bit out of the savings account:

This week however I started really doing work on this. Stripped it further. Took out the windows myself without breaking them, which made me real happy to say the least :D. Some rust behind the door hinges, but seems to be on the surface, nothing to worry about. No rust behind the windows either.

Today I took a closer look at the sunroof tray, minimal OEM rust here as well.
