BTW, what was wrong with it?
Well there is a laundry list, carb needs rebuilt, shocks and struts need replaced, brakes need done all the way around (right rear is grinding). then there is the check list that I do to every used car I get, Oil change,(done) Trans fluid change, coolant flush, (done) plugs, cap and rotor, Wires. and just recently I came acrossed a couple oil leeks that need addressed as well. Front main seal, valve cover, and oil pan. And there is still the exhaust leak (Cylinder 1 off the manifold). I am sure there is something I am forgetting but that is all I can think of for now. that is just the mechanical side of it all not one piece of plastic sits right on the car, both front fenders and the plastic in front of the hood are cracked both bumpers are floppy little rust around the rear panels and front pillers. *sigh* it is going to take a wile to address every issue
I am going to try to make every mod reversible just so that I don't destroy yet another crx, high school kids do enough of that for everyone.
