Worked on fixing up my 2nd Insight, in preparation of gifting it to my brother in law.










Car has new tires, new brakes, nearly every bit of steel in the vehicle has been de-rusted, painted, then coated with lanolin. Pressure washed the seats, shampooed what little carpet it had. New speakers. Fixed ground issues in the engine bay. Cleaned EGR passages, new spark plugs, air filter, battery. Oil changed. Recharged the A/C. Fixed a water leak into the cabin. Added sound dampening throughout. New primary O2 sensor. Replaced steering wheel with a nicer one I had. Probably two dozen other things I'm not thinking of.

The only thing it needs, before I sink my teeth into Aerocivic, is brake lines. Just waiting on the tool to come in.
