92 civic vx for sale (ca model) - $3500
Hello hypermilers, I have a 92 civic vx up for sale. Runs great, awesome gas mileage. The original engine blew the head gasket, so I got a replacement engine - stock d15z1. It has a replacement engine from Nippon motors with approx 50 - 70k and a replacement transmission with approx 80 - 100k miles. The car has 160000 on the chasis. No grinds in trans and engine runs great. New brakes, timing belt, water pump, battery - everything is ready to go. I have the federal ECM, but never made the ca to fed switch. New o2 sensor. Love the car, but I want a motorcycle. Stock vx rims with wheel locks.

The car has a few issues, all minor like the locks don't work from the inside, probably from the previous owner putting stupid tint on the windows. Someone stole the emblem on the front. It has been in a front end accident before I got it, and you can tell if you look closely.

Thanks for looking!

I am interested in the VX. Are there photos anywhere?

I am not in CA, so I would be coming to get it or have it delivered to me.

Do you know how bad the front end accident was? Was the front of the car's frame/radiator support bent in?

The radiator support was bent slightly, but everything is still intact. It has a new hood - but thats the extent of what I can see.

Would you take $3000 CASH?

Also, I would not need it smog tested as I am in a non-testing state.

As for the accident; were the fenders also replaced? Is there any other metal distortions on the inside of the fenders (inside the engine compartment)?
Judging from the photos; are there any fitment issues with the front turn signals/headlamps?
