If it has a mint interior that that alone is worth it. if it runs and drives fine then ---- yeah!!!

Yeah... sure

My $850 CRX with 130k was in bad shape body-wise, interior was pretty mint, especially the seats (no rips/tears/signs of aging )

Jump on that deal

I came up with $600 and she didnt even think about it. I seriously think i could have taken it for $400. She said she had a few offers of $100 so she was excited to get a decent offer. The interior is 100% mint. Not a single stain or rip. The body is straight as all hell but there is some rust. Im going to spend tonight looking for somwhere to buy replacement panels and weld them in. The motor is also 100% stock. The car has been babied for its entire life. It just needs new breaks and some body work. I decided to put the build ls/vtec into this instead of my ek. 350-400whp should be fun in the car. It weighs just over 2000 lbs. I think im in love.

I also need to do some research on coverting the clutch to hydro. I know hasport makes a kit but i really want to just have a complete hydro system if its not too difficult. I have a rebuilt sir tranny that would be perfect for this thing. For now im going to keep it stock and focus on the body work and getting it back into tip top shape. Then will come with ls/vtec-turbo along with suspension and brakes. I bought the car for $600 and im sure within a year i will have put ten times that much into it.
