Hello humans.
Welp, my name's Josh, new to the stance scene, though have admired it for a couple years now. My first car was an 89 civic lx, later moved to a 91 z32 na, and now I've set my sights on bringing this 1983 1.8L carbureted e21, that I snagged off craigslist for $850, down to earth.
The good: body in pretty decent shape, 136k miles, 5spd, driveable
The bad: converted to carb 2 owners ago so a lotta ghetto re-wiring was done, turn signal switch inoperative, passenger side lights (excluding low and high beams and reverse light) inoperative, some rust here and there and everywhere else, dash controls inoperative (all wires are loose and not connected to anything)
The day I bought it:

First order of business was to remove the obtrusive US spec bumper:
