SiR - What Have I Done?

Hello everyone!
We have noticed that we have a lots of new readers and would like to say welcome to you all!
The story behind this project is the main reason why we are doing this and you can read it in english here and also in finnish here. Nice to see that there are lots of like-minded people out there!

But back to this blog.... Allu has gone mad - again. We already have a project Prelude, a spare part Prelude and Civic. And what a sane person does?
HE BUYS ANOTHER PRELUDE! This thing is a last generation (5th gen) JDM SiR BB8. It's powered with 2.2L H22 Vtec engine and electronic 4WS system. It's pretty clear, that this car is one of a kind in Finland and we are very proud and exited about it - especially the owner is ;)
And then something about the old project. Last weekend we cleared mold from the interior, which Prelude had gained during the "storage season". It was quite bad, so we decided to use chlorite and let it dry after it. Now we are hoping that the fabric won't lose too much of color.

Later we'll probably clean it again with a steamer and use some conditioner for the fabric, so that there will (hopefully) not be any mold inside the car next spring. Otherwise the car is almost ready for driving back to the garage so we'll be back in business soon!

PS. Happy birthday Aki <3
