I give you... The Rice Rod

[cremean]

This is a friend of mines car. He traded an Xbox 360 for it. It was already fairly beat, so instead of trying to dump a bunch of money into it and fix it up nice and purty and all OMGWTFJDMBBQ, he made it into what you see here.

 

Enjoy.

I bet that shit gets like 40mpg

The taillights are nice...I'm actually kinda digging it haha. It reminds me of my 88 CRX Si beater I used to have with like 240k miles.

There was a guy in California (I think) that did the same job to an old Miata. I'm still undecided on whether or not I like it, but props for doing something relatively different for what type of vehicle it is.

It is just a trashed Civic.

Someone needs their man card revoked.

Yes, everyone that had anything semi psoitive to say about that car. I've seen cars with paint get more hate then this.

[Diamonds]

needs motherfucking coker tire white walls. And paint the wheels red.

[BlackC50]

needs whitewalls, red smoothies, and a big ass shifter to the ceiling with a voodoo skull on it. Some speed holes too.

[zeitgeist57]

I wouldn't own it, but Franken-Civic is unique...I'll give it that much.

 

Does it run? Any driver you can pick up for an Xbox trade is a good deal IMO...

[Smokey]

did he do the patina himself or buy it like that? I agree with Bob's future plans for the car BTW.

[neonkiller]

Good build I like it!

nice art reference!

[Dave1647545494]

good for a beater I guess

[87GT]

Beaters FTW

[Wonderboy]

The most important question is what kinda go fast parts does it have?

[TimTaylor751647545500]

A 4' muffler, duh.

[El Karacho1647545492]

needs nitrous now.

 

 

also, the headlights made me LOL

It didn't run when he got it. Blown head gasket. Replaced that. Shitty compression. Swapped out the short block, gave it a manual swap, and now she purrs like a kitten.

The car was flat black had z3 fenders and needed a front facia. He got rid of the fenders, got stock red ones and a matching teal bumper, flatted them, and then got out the belt sander and flapper wheel and went to town.

F2 coilovers and a short shifter...
