The replacement. 95 EG Hatch with an LS. 950.00 CAN!!! NO RUST, impossible for a Canadian Car!!!

All in all that is a great car for the money. $950 Canadian is like $26.83 US right? Nice purchase! The minor body damage looks to be an easy fix.

that's a steal in any country, for the price and shape of the body.


I'll give you $26.83 us right now.... :-*

Well it runs and drive, but like a pile of ---- because of 25psi on Cylinder #3.

I wanted to get my RHD EF done, but I didn't want to rush it. I'm not throwing it away, just on the back burner. Traction Bars, 40+hours at work a week, Getting Married, Buying a House, building a motor and the RHD was alot to get done before June!!!

This way I can treat my 90 hatch as a restoration and take my time doing it right, and not having to do it over again in 3 years.

NO I wont sell it. I went shopping for a Shell, Say this, fiqure I'd ask the guy (Dealership trade the day before I found it) what he would take. He said he gave 1g trade in to the kid so once I say the ls and how clean the body was I sayed I'd give him 950 as it idled like crap. He said fine.

The LS will come out. Built ZC goes in for Summer 2006, then comes out and goes into the 90 RHD Hatch. I plan to either re-build or build the LS for boost or dare I say it "N/A LS/Vtec" Never done an N/A and it's going to be my soon to be Wifes Summer 2007. She has always loved the EG hatches but they are normally rotten to hell or WAY over priced!!!

Great deal. Gotta find the kids who fix up these cars and then somethin like a blown motor bums them out and swoop it up. Great score regardless of the bad ls motor. Should be fun. Nice color too. 2 fast blue 5th gen hatch's with dohc zc motors, i think a trend has started.

Ya I got the console. Sorry about 1/2-1 week ago. Been Busy.

Nope the LS Stays with me for a Re-Ring, but it probably will/need more then that! The Wife need a sub 14s car to at least follow the ZC!!!

Well it was about 4 years ago, was in mint condition, and ran perfectly. Ones in crappy condition barely running were going for $1500-2000. Thats when the first fast and furious movie came out and the price of a Civic doubled over night.

Gutters are cheaply done, but nothing I can't weld in later down the road.

Ya a 1500sq Foot shop doesn't last long when you have 3 cars (My two civics and Dad Dodge Dart), a frame from the 48 Ford, Lawn Care Equipment getting cleaned up for the business, a small tractor with a snow blower, Pick-up with a plow, 3 welders, Band saw, 2 peoples tools, work bench, parts, BEER FRIDGE................

Shall I keep going, Nah I realize how much crap I have!!!
