Re: How much would you pay?
The body had 140k mi.,pretty straight, paint shiny but rust on rear quarters. Interior was good except for a wear spot on rear fold down seats, no rips or burns though. Engine was swpped w/ another 1.6l (not sure of correct mileage). Excessive smoke due to valve guides. 5sp was noisy, brakes had x-drilled rotors but rear pistons were n/g. Many misc. but necessary parts were in need of replacement. (main relay, dizzy, etc.) I was hasty in buying the car and I may have overpaid, but after all of the work Ive done to it I dont regret it at all. Maybe I should have been patient and saved for the GN I really wanted.

If the body is straight and rust free I would pay the $1200. Its getting pretty hard to come by a rust free, hell even a good condition ef hatch these days(where I live anyway). So to me it seems like a pretty good deal even if it needs some minor work.

I understand that Hondas never go for "bb value" thanks to gas prices and ricers
