crx worth motor swap?
 

yea so this kid in my town has a crx with 2 rusted rear quarters and he wants me to swap the motor into his other crx....the deal would be crx1 motor and trans into crx2 payment would be crx1 with rusted rear quarter panels....i dont know what i can get for the crx but i dont wanna pull 2 motors and put one back in and have a rolling chassis crx with rusted rear quarters......would any of you do this anyway or no?....cause i really dont want this crx but if i can get a few hundred out of it that would be nice.... its an hf by the way....

I wouldn't do it. You say you don't want to, so why ask us?

rust is just cheap weight reduction. i would do it since it will really only cost you time and not money

Shoot him in the face. Then take his rustbucket and fix it.

i live in sharon pennsylvania...its like 20 minutes or so from youngstown ohio....yea i think i might just do the swap and then weld in new rear quarters...how much is a crx shell worth in good condition....its white so im just gonna give it a tractor supply paint job.....tractor paint...yea nigggga

less than 100 in my area for a rolling shell. ---- my hatch im driving now i got running for 100 bucks with a slight rod knock. take it, you cant pass on a free shell regardless of how rusted it is. a motor swap is easy ----, id do it.

No ----, that's just north of me in Butler. I don't know how much it's worth, but I'll throw you a hundred or 2 for it if it's complete and titled minus engine/tranny. If you don't feel like doin it I'm sure I could find the time to hook em up.

theres a cable trans with it....im gonna do the swap hopefully this weekend...and yea butler isnt far from here at all....id like to get 300 out of it with the cable trans ...cause if i fixed it up a little bit and put a motor in it i could sell it for like 1500 around here with probably 400 invested ......my ex girlfriends little brother wants to pay me like 500 for the car if ill put a motor in it for him...a motor that hes payin for...thats another reason 300 seems reasonable...but ---- i dunno lemme get the car this weekend and ill see what kind of condition its really in....i mean its driving on the road now...the kid goes to state college and he drove it back there....so its pa inspected and all that shat
