Too all the viewers complaining about not having enough time for their projects, just remember it only took 10 minutes for this man to completely restore his CRX.

I am 51 years old, to this day my 1989 CRX HF was my favorite car to own. I love to see the amount of pride you have in you work.

You’re really a true craftsman, from just taping up the car, bodywork, all top notch! Looks incredible

I remember getting a CRX when I was 16. It was one of the coolest cars you could get at the time. I had mags and lowered it on the ground. I got an exhaust and pod filter and had it dyno tuned. I was running a 2 1/4 inch exhaust and it was quick. I used to pull the speedo cord out of the gearbox to allow the car to go beyond the 180 cut out. I would always drive the motorways at redline in 5th gear.

I was expecting him to put some rice mods on it but he actually did a amazing restoration

I always loved the CRX. What a cool design. You did a great job on this.

I LOVE THEM CRX VTEC ONE, I HAD TWO SILVER ONES IN 1993, HEAVY RESPECT TO YOU FOR BRINGING IT BACK TO LIFE, #SCOTLAND

The purist in me would have liked to see car returned to stock, but otherwise the it came out great. Thanks for rescuing it!

One of the most iconic and original designs Honda Motor Corp ever produced. Way cooler than it’s DelSol replacement. Classier lines than any generation of the Prelude ( which I am a huge fan of). I had a 1987 CRX Si in black. It was a really cool little 2 seater. That rear foam OEM spoiler was so strange. I kept it pristine, so when my buds found out that it was basically the consistency of a nerf football, they just had to ask for a punch in the jaw when they would press their thumbs into it, causing the paint to easily spider web and crack. What a strange, heavy material to use as their Si production spoiler??! …. So.. the next year (1988) when this version of the CRX was on the market, I just HAD TO HAVE IT. I had my heart on the Si version in yellow, but all my local dealerships never ordered any Si CRX’s. It wouldn’t have did any good if I did find an 88 Si, because they were too expensive. My credit only allowed for the economy friendly models. So I signed for the baby blue HF version in 5 speed, no A/C, one side view mirror lol. Back then A/C in a Honda was NOT STANDARD EQUIPMENT. You had to basically buy an Si which all came with the moonroof and A/C in the package, but the others had to be ordered. At least that’s what the dealers in my area told me. So here I was making payments for 36 months on a car without AC, standard roll up windows and I was as happy as can be because that 1988 HF model with the steel wheels still looked better and sportier than the previous 1987 Si tiny, boxy car I traded in. I loved that 1988 CRX. I loved going through its 5 gears and rolling up to the gas station only once a week and topping off the 10 gallon gas tank with a 5 dollar bill of 89¢ per gallon of 89 octane. Later in life I needed more than 2 seats to get by in life, so I sold my little light blue CRX and bought a used, immaculate condition 1989 Honda Accord coupe. I think it was an EX model with power moon roof, very stylish pop up n down headlights. The 2 door coupe was still worth the cramped style of having my daughter’s car seat in the center back buckle. No way was I going to drive a 4 door Accord Sedan. Nice cars, but not my style. I have such happy memories of the days I drove those 3 Honda’s. My favorite will always be that new 88 CRX . Unfortunately, it is nearly IMPOSSIBLE to find an unmolested, 2nd generation CRX on the market that wasn’t chopped and lowered or without a 4 feet high mess on the rear short hatch that some goof claimed was a wing or spoiler, oversized wheels and tires and a ragged out engine with some goofy aftermarket cold air intake and the original plastic air filtration and intake still with the car. You can thank Hollywood and Mr VIN DIESEL for making every high school boy of the 2000 era buying up every last available Honda CRX and ruining the factory handling with a set of Eibach Springs and throwing all original components away to be gone forever. So….thanks to all you Fast and the Furious idiots for ruining and making the CRX an extremely endangered species. I mean really, these cars were one of two varieties Honda had made. One was a super fuel efficient variety that sometimes got up to 50 miles per gallon on the highway and the other was a “ somewhat” zippy, tight handling Si model. They weren’t ever made to be a super car. Loud and stupid coffee can sided muffler tips speeding up the town’s Main Street annoying everyone as bad as a new Harley owner with newly install drag pipes. It was the end of the wonderful little CRX and I just only wish Honda would produce a retro model that had near identical styling and curves like the original. I’d buy one today if they sold them because that particular CRX (1988-1992-3? ) STILL looks as modern as the cars built and designed by Japanese companies today. It would sell too. So many young college and new to the work force youth would buy that car and enjoy its simplicity and extremely fuel efficient ways with a standard gasoline engine and a 5 -speed gear box. Even the automatic trans were extremely fuel efficient. I miss the good days with quality cars that you got for a great price.

Love seeing this icon Honda’s being brought to life again. Just Amazing.

I had an 90 CRX with the Wings West body kit back in high school. It was my pride and joy. Watching this made me miss my old whip.

I had a super clean black CRX SI back in the day. I loved that car. I now have an S2k. Wish I still had the CRX too.

So glad to see that you actually masked off the valve cover when painting it, thank you! Lol, I hate how almost every single person in the Honda community will spray a valve cover without masking any of it off. Then they end up with paint in the plug tube holes and inside the valve cover, it always looks trashy that way, and why would they want paint inside their engine lmao

Great work as always, love the organization and the tedious care it takes to complete a project in this manner 👍

The man knows what he's doing...Great job 👏

Me and my buddy are restoring a 1990 civic si so watching this was very motivating

Holy crap that's been my dream car in silver with carbon for 21 years lol Beautiful car and amazing work!

Wow that car turned out incredible. That’s one of the cleanest restorations I’ve ever seen.

Those were the wheels to rock on a Honda mid 2000’s remember seeing them when I was like 7-8

All in one. Eye for buying the right car, mechanic skills, paint job, detailing.. what can you not do? One of the best 10 minutes in my life. Subscribed!

It is very admirable that you took your time and did all of that work making that Honda look fantastic, AND because you made a beautiful video of it as well! Congratulations on a job well done!

Great video! It's a beautiful build. I hope you inspire others. So many need to know that you can change the world with sandpaper, a wire brush, a lot of physical labor and a can of spray paint.

1989 Honda Crx HF was my very first car... i will forever have a special love for this car.

Everything looks close to stock I appreciate seeing a crx like that

I hope I can find one of these when I get rid of my current car, the crx has been my dream car for as long as I can remember

That was fire. Such a clean build. So much love and time spent doing it right.

i'm not really a car guy, but damn. This is art. the car looks brand new. a lot of time & patience went into this restoration. all out of a garage. i love it, & now want a honda.....

He made an old car look modern and new this is beautiful

A “less is more” build will always get my attention. Simply amazing work.

I wish I had the patience like you do when it comes to sanding and doing body filling,you made this car look really amazing good job 👍

First car I ever owned. Man I'd love to get back into one one day.

Had a 1984 CRX. Wish I still did. This is AMAZING. And what a cool car. Miss it.

This looks amazing one of the best if not the best crx build on youtube this makes me wanna buy a crx now keep up the amazing work!

Absolutely beautiful. Big props to you for saving another rex! ❤

I had a car just like this when I was a young adult, man this brings back memories. I'm miss my car!

absolute madness. only thing missing is the front badge! beautiful!!!

You are a true artist! Outstanding restoration!!!

You did a great job on this. Amazing restoration

As someone at the very beginning of a restoration, this is encouraging to watch.

Man taping is slow if work but then you paint it so quick. It's a satisfying project for sure

Awesome overview and editing of all the other videos we saw and more! Fun to watch great video keep them coming! I’m headed to my garage this weekend to work on painting my crx’s fenders and hood can’t wait!

Your work speaks for itself. Keep up great work and them videos rolling.

I used to own the exact same car. I loved it. One of those pocket rockets. Purchased in 1993 with 12,000 miles on it. Sold it 1997 with 84,283 mile on it for $400 more than I paid for it. WIN WIN!

I’m glad I saw y’all restore the engine. And not swap it. Shit gets old. Time to be original and different. Thanks guys . Tired of ppl copying others and not be their own. Good job

Such beauty! This is quality content. Satisfying and clean.

Looks so good! Only thing I would have done differently is removed the side skirts and door caps to clean behind and make sure has not rusted behind those.

I owed an 85 CRX and a 89 CRX SI back in the day. They were lots of fun to drive.

Beautiful work my friend

Man, well done and beautifully shot ! Congrats! I just been through the same process, bought a cheap second hand car that I already have in pristine condition. I don’t know about you but I’ve been through some different thoughts all along the process, for example when I was done with disamantling and starting to sand everything, I was starting to doubt if I can fulfill, wondering what did I bring myself into, then satisfaction when painting was done, and excitement when I was putting everything back. Now I’m so proud of the result and love this car almost as much as my main one.

This brings back old memories, amazing restoration, like the paint job .

I had a red 88 si in the early 2000s. I loved that little car.

僕は日本でホンダに勤めていました。 これほどCRXを大切にしてくれる方が居るのはとても嬉しいです。

You did a beautiful job Seth great work 🔥

I would sell my ovaries to have a workshop for my CRX and atv!

I respect that you corrected clear coat imperfections and then polished it. Fantastic finished product. I miss my 88 Si

I bought my CRX in 2009 for $700. It was a stock, running 89 Dx with broken glass in the passenger door and rear hatch. Bad paint and also missing some interior trim. +12 years later, I've done the body work and have built and swapped a B16. It's no longer a daily but I do drive it about once a week. "Its not fast but it is damn fun to drive" Keep em on the road !!

Bro this thing is cleannn!!! Love to see the work! I need this same work done to my Miata.

amazing job!

The 89 looks amazing! It is like night and day from the 88. Both are solid , it's just the 89 looks more sporty. I had the 87 Civic and the opportunity for the 89 never presented it's self. I managed to let a 95 240SX slip through my hands over a mere $400. I am still kicking myself for that miss. Thanks for the memories.

Honda Ballada Sport CR-X it was my first car . I loved her very much and I still love her . I 'm glad that you are also in awe of this Honda model! It turned out beautifully ! Pleases the eyes 👍

Great work! But one thing I would definitely add is a aftermarket tail light. There is one that looks just like the original but the CRX logo lights up and I think it just looks amazing

Simple and clean. Love it. Lots of work in painting a car. You did great. Love those urethane bumpers. I had a set on my 90 hatchback si.

I had a '88 in high school, this was a pleasure to watch and see it come back to life.

Hello Sir, perfect job, you works like a boss👍and the best : no blabla ( in french), no speak ,only action!! That's great ! Congratulations, good Vib's from France ☮️🤗

This homemade paint jobe is insane!

I’m 19 years of age and I’m really into cars since I was 8 and been wanting to start on my very first car project starting off with the 2000 honda civic. My main car I’m driving right now is a 2015 honda civic si, but I really want a project car from scratch.. Saved up more than $20k now. I think I’m going to do it, currently looking for a 2000 honda civic most of them are auto and it’s really hard trying to find a manual🤦🏻‍♂️

Lunch break has been fulfilled! Thank you so much. I will return to work now.

2nd Gen CRX has one of the best body shapes ever

The fitting at the seams whenever there is a body kit always irks me. I personally think this would have looked best as a resto job meaning all stock parts rather than that 80s buddy club-ish look. If you went as far as to give the engine an OEM refresh, why stop at the body. Props for the do it all yourself part tho.

Had a 1984 CRX. Had many cars since, but it was my first car - my baby. The only car I ever truly loved. Would like to find one and restore it someday.

Man I miss mine, what a fun little car to throw around

So lucky I really want one. I only see one driving around out town. And I envy that guy too. He’s a 300 lbs driving around don’t even have to lower the car too haha.

I definitely wants to see this with black rims and clear turn signal lights 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

just started a project car, I don't have much experience and after seeing this you've inspired me to not just put some rims and lower it but to actually restore my project car completely

All my Hondas were 92 or newer but THIS is an incredible car!

Incredible amount of ability and patience. Beautiful build. Thanks for sharing!

I owned CRX first model when i was 19 at that time..very memorable 😢

Beautiful… these cars have simplistic character

Makes me miss the 86 SI that I used to have

Very clean restoration. I like this kind of restorations quite lot without all the unnecessary modifications.

Man, I was just so completely immersed in the video. The work you did was amazing and the musik and editing was spot on! Loved it.

7:40 I feel exhausted even when I'm watching this. Great restoration.

I've wanted a CRX Si since they first came out, so this video was like a weekend at the spa, but for my mind!

80s and 90s, my favorite decades.

Nice restoration Bro, saved 1 from the junkyard. Respect 💯 Bro

I have to say the CRX is still my favorite Honda. This makes me miss the 2 I had.

Great job restoring that awesome JDM car

Awesome to see good quality work for the do-it-yourselfers. I'm in the market for a CRX I know when I find one work needs to be done appreciate you showing me the proper way to restore that particular model

There can't be many of these left in the world , in the uk my mate had one that was 19 years ago don't think I have seen one since, great job 👍

You, sir, are an artist. Amazing! Wish I would have never traded my '90 si. 😫😫

First car was a 89 CRX Si and this just warms my heart. Great work!

Bloke! Awesome! Showing the little mistakes in all of it makes it real, keeps you real. Mad rig! Love your work!

I loved my 87 CRX back in the day. Got over 40 mpg and before hybrids existed 🤣. So fun to drive

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Frankly speaking, you're a genius! Not many people in this world can do just like you did.

This brings back memories of the wide body crx poster that was on my wall when I was in middle school. Good stuff, thank you!

Lovely restoration and glad you kept it as it was and not put it to standard. Keeps its history too.

This is incredible quality of work! We watched it in 14 minutes, you have surely spent at least 2 weeks!

You were already winning with the wheels and Ep3 bucket seats

My lord. Such great work. It’s so simplistic, that even those JSpeed wheels feel a little bit like an overstatement. Still sexy.

I usually dont like any modded crx's but this one is exceptionally well made
