Rebuild turned restoration of the lowest mile Civic Si in the auction

  • We started with a rebuild but this super low miles 2007 Honda Civic Si needs more restoration work than rebuild work. Honda has some paint and rubber issues and the Texas sun definitely didn't help things.

    Hey Scott. Thank you again for taking time to video your work. I think you’re a hell of a mechanic and your work is definitely top notch. And thanks for validating for me that anything and everything can and will be a hammer/scraper, or whatever is needed and whichever tool is closest. I’m the same way. Keep the videos coming. I enjoy watching them.

    7:29 comment about the supervisor helping. I know guys who have trained their dogs to get a beer, and some other things. I was working on the bench one day and my cat was at the other end laying on a pair of side cutters. I said "alfie, hand me those pliers" he looked around huh? Hand me those pliers you're laying on! he looked around, he KNEW I wanted him to do something but couldn't figure out exactly what. He was the funniest cat I ever had. Whenever I was building something he HAD to be involved. I've got pics of him sitting on a custom library ladder I built, inside the drawers of an armoire, sitting inside some kitchen cabinets, he always had to be involved.
    One time I had painted the underside of an MDF desk top I had made. I went out for lunch came back and there's cat prints across it. ALFIE!!!!! you little brat. I had to repaint it.
    I told the customer about it and she said "oh wow, you should have left them, that would have been a funny story to tell" (she was a cat person too).

      I worked at a shop with a German Shepherd as a shop dog. I was her favorite tech and she would follow me around all day. I’d kick bushings across the floor and we’d play fetch that way. One time I was carrying rotors to the scrap pile and she comes up behind me with one I had left. We thought for sure she would break a tooth but from that day forward she always carried one for me. If I can find the video, I’ll post it.

    I used to have a 3 ft long screwdriver extension. Showed up to the construction site and all the "pros" were ragging on me about it. So we had to install drywall on the ceiling of a cottage we were renovating. A dutchman to hold the board up, me on the ground with my 3' extension, screws in the corners and a couple in the middle onto the next one. Then once all the boards are in place, I walked around putting the rest of the screws in.
    Hey how'd you board the entire ceiling in a couple of hours by yourself?
    30 mins later every one of them was asking where I got the extension and if they could borrow it. lol Funny how the "know it alls" don't.......

    Man I always hated a Supervisor looking over my shoulder. I bet when you screw up he barks down your neck loudly and will never let you get in a word of explanation! Don't know if the money is worth it.

    What's the situation with your work space? Do you give part of sale, rent, own the shop? Is there a video you explained it? I have watched a long time but may have missed a few videos.

      @@vehcor that's cool thanks for the response. Great work, wish I could afford/hire you to fix my van up. It's not bad at all, couple dings, 1 small spot of rust at bottom of door. Otherwise it's shiny and nice for a 95
