96 d16y7 civic 5 speed how good are they

I just found a wrecked 96 civic lx with a d16y7 1.6 liter sohc, car is a 5 speed with a new engine with 46000 on it and 146000 on the car. I can get it for 700 bucks and it's very Clean. Other than needing a windshield, hood, radiator and support, and headlights. I figure I could just aero mod the front instead of buying replacement parts lol. But what mpg can be squeezed out of them? And how aero are they?
