Default Is it worth it? '92 Civic DX Sedan

I went and test drove some Civic just now. Like the title says, it's a 1992 DX 4dr, 159,000 miles, with no options. No AC, no radio (it does have PS?), 5 speed. It's really clean inside and out, but it's missing the inside driver's side rear door handle, and there's some good nasty rust in both sides of the rear wheel wells. Other than that, everything works fine, runs smooth, and looks to have a new radiator and fan. Otherwise stock.

The cracker farmboy wants $1350, including TTL, and he will not go any lower. I want this because, even though I love the Lude and still plan to turbo it sooner or later, that ---- is just not happening fast or cheap enough for my taste and I need boost ASAP.

I sold my auto 93 civic w/ 180k on the chassis and 75k on the engine for $1400 (had some rust as well). 1350 doesnt sound like a terrible deal if the rust isnt too bad.

Define bad? There is metal missing from both sides, but on the pass.side it's only in the rear outer part of the quarter panel, maybe 4x4 inches. On the driver side, the metal underneath the rear door is cracked.

It's cancer for sure, just don't know if it's worth the cash.

Hmm, to me that sounds a bit severe. A car in that condition wouldnt last another winter in PA.
