Crashed Subaru WRX Sedan Turned into Honda Civic 3-Door by Amateur Mechanic ... - autoevolution
The man was in for a little JDM-style fun, so he decided to crossbreed a Subaru WRX and a. Honda Civic back in 2010. We are talking about a Canadian builder who invested CAD5,500 and four months into creating a contraption he nicknamed Cibaru. It all started with a 2004 Subaru WRX sedan and a 1992 Civic SI. Since we’re not living in the age of the body-on-frame approach anymore, dropping the Civic body “onto” onto the WRX platform was not as easy as it may sound to somebody outside the... After playing with car bodies for 15 years, the guy had learned reinforcing stuff using 2x1 (1/8) steel tubes is an excellent path, so this is what he did. He started cutting and welding, with the fabrication requiring complex jobs, such as the front fender work - the Subaru’s wheelbase was shorter than that of the Civic by 1. 9 inches, so he had to work his way around that. The man wanted to stay clear off the beaten ricer paths, so he tried to skip putting the WRX hood scoop on the Civic. After completing the project, the man enjoyed the fruits of his labor for over three months and miles (km). The car was sold subsequently, so somebody is probably enjoying its sleeper charms out there as you are reading this. Source: www.autoevolution.com
