I bought this abandoned 1994 Honda Civic for just $500 and decided to see if this old 90s Civic could be saved. This abandoned car had been sitting for a long time, had over 411,000 km on the odometer, and was hiding a turbo setup under the hood.
In this first part of the Honda Civic restoration project, I clean out the car, inspect the body and interior, check the engine, diagnose why it won’t start, and finally take the $500 turbo Civic on its first drive. This is just the beginning of the full restoration of an abandoned Honda Civic that was close to being sent to the junkyard.

A lot of u guys are asking about the old videos. I decided to restart the channel and re-edit some of them before moving forward. Looking back I rushed some things and didnt explain or show everything as well as I wanted to. just wanna make the videos better this time.
gonna work through the older projects first, but theres a lot of new stuff coming too. Continuations, new projects and a new flipping series
Really appreciate everyone who came back, means a lot seeing u guys here again 🙏
