got me a cheap civic

[khrys771]

i picked up a 96 coupe that had some light front damage for $340, and am in the process of fixing it.

i got a hood and fender for it, but the fender sucks in quality, and was thinking of getting the password:jdm ones.
i also have some black power doors for it, the side skirt, the other 2 slipstreams, and some nuespeed race springs.

as it sits right now.

$340? Does it run?

 

[khrys771]

runs and drives, shifts easy. has 180k miles and no leaks, d16y7.

 

[Bro'sslowdx]

wow...thats a BADASS car for 340. Mines in almost same condition except I payed 1500. I would agree with your plans for jdm fenders. I would work on getting matching rims. The fronts are badass so i'd just sell the rears. GLWB.

 

[khrys771]

yeah i have the whole set of the slips. i just put the fronts on cuz the tires were bad on the other rims. and i already have the konigs sold.

the headlights arent in the best shape, so i am thinking of buying some blacked out ebay headlights then retrofitting them with hid projectors later on.

the interior is not all that great, it needs carpet and the previous owner had 2 dogs. there are a few things wrong with it, but it is 98% rust free, and whatever rust there is, is on some nuts and bolts. its just really dirty. but i do have all the seats and plastics.

roof is wavy, but i am thinking heavily on getting a carbonfiber roof cap. also the headliner fabric needs to be replaced, but still what would you expect for $340...

nice find for 340 good luck with it!

 

[khrys771]

oh and the A/C still works! lol

 

[R3dline]

not to shabby for under 400 bucks, steal of a deal

wtf is that nasty looking stuff in the spare tire area.?

 

[khrys771]

there was something gooey back there when i bought the car, one day it rained really hard and my driveway is at a slant, well water got back there and rusted up some nails, pliers, and screwdrivers that were left in the goop. so i tried to dry it out that day and that is the aftermath. it can be cleaned, but i need to find a shop vac. its like a dusty material now, a few spot pasted to the paint. i will more then likely spray some undercoating in there after i clean it and remove the sound deadener in the trunk that has been affected.

Nice pick up, should be alot of work but it will be fun

 

[EK|B]

That's cheap!

 

[khrys771]

i'm thinking of getting the hood painted a satin black or a gloss black, but i havent decided yet.

 

[ImportFan1]

Repaint the whole car one color...

 

[ruff_ridaz99]

damn..i'd pick that up for $340!!

 

[mylovehx]

sweet pick up. good luck with it bro!

 

[4bangincivic]

that's a steal

 

[Destroy]

Looks like they kept a decayed body back there, would explain the cheap price.

 

[khrys771]

lol. well it doesnt smell, thats all i can say.

i'm working on stripping the interior out. and i'm going to clean the metal.
