My PB MB9 Aerodeck! Engine rebuild in progress

The Deck won't start at all today. I turn the ignition on, the usual lights on the dash come on but the engine won't turn. All I hear is a click noise when turning the key. The battery has 12.36v according to the multi-meter. Sometimes the immobilizer flashes like mad when turning the key but it doesn't always do this. 

 

It's been pi$$ing down since last night so I'm wondering if water might of got in somewhere? 

 

I disconnected the battery right now and leave it for half hour also

It end up being the stater motor. The live wire snapped and I haven't got a soldering kit. So I took the motor off the old Civic and it now starts like a beaut :)

It has been quite an productive day today. Whilst I took the starter motor off, thought I start taking other bits and pieces off whilst I'm at it.

 

Literally everything inside the old Civic has been taken out. Including sunroof, window regulators, door handles, dash switches and the speedometre, the whole lot!

 

Took the MGZS spoiler and back box off. The spoiler will be for sale soon if anyones interested. Beaks bar removed and other bits and pieces. Fitted the VTi-S side skirts to the Aerodeck which looks a whole lot better!

 

It's really horrible looking at the old girl now :(

No rust on the seals! :)

Test fitting the rear VTi-S lip on the Aerodeck to see if it's possible to fit with some modifications. Obviously the lip is too short on the side but my mate reckons he can add a bit on on each side using fibraglass! :D
