Default Got My CRX Today

1986 CRX Si with 172,000 miles........ picked it up for $290 bucks, little work needed. It wasnt running when we got it, but Johnny quickly got her started up. The car has been sitting for two years, the fuel pump was hanging loose and got a hole in it. The guy noticed it leaking and just let it sit at his brothers in Castle Rock, WA. For now Johnny and I put a temp patch on it. The front tires were flat, they seem to be holding air ok now but there is a big bubble on the sidewall of one. I have pretty good tires on the Accord I wrecked, should be able to switch them over ok. There really isnt anything wrong with the car, happy with it. Believe a snake was living in it for the past two years, found a skin and some broken egg shells. Its all cleaned up now (outside), lookin pretty good. Best part of it is that my dad will pay for any parts I need.

some pics:









Its a really cool little car though, can't wait to drive it around. and a big thanks to Johnny for getting so wet doing a lot of the cleanin

yeah its in pretty good shape, missing the plastics between the front bumper and hood as you can see in one of the pics, but overall it is pretty damn nice.

The Z went on hold sorta for a little bit because a mont ago I crashed the Accord that was my actual car. Since then I have been driving around my mom's bonneville, had to get save money to get something of my own again. Hopefully now I can get some of the other stuff for the Z and start her up soon.

Good to see there's no 'head shot' on the drivers side. Looks like you worked it pretty good, <thumbs up>

For $290 that's a steal.

Looks like it has minimal exterior rust.

Keep us updated.
