Well, this looks like it will be parked in my driveway soon. I will be sending out a deposit on it this weekend, then picking it up later this month. It is located in SoCal, so if anyone wants to grab lunch while I am out there, let me know. :D

1988 HONDA CRX SI-comes with 1990 JDM B16A, pull piping, trust exhaust, Tokico/GC setup. The motor has problems though. No biggie though. Kind of a little more work done to it than I would like. But out of 20 CRX's all but 3 had been sold. So I had to jump on one.
Its out of Oceanside btw.

Asking price was $2500, but I got it lower than that.
He thinks it has bad rings. No biggie. If they cannot be replaced, then I can get a new b16 for a good price. Besides, I wouldnt need anything but the motor.

DAMN NOT BAD AT ALL! Even with a bad motor its all good! Just rebuild the b16? Like replace the pistons with ctr. Check if the walls are ok if anything.

sweet, you got a very nice deal on that ... too bad it isnt up in nor cal or we could have met up ... we were gonna meet up earlier when I went to colorado, but you ended up finding better steelies at your local junkyard.
Anyways, what route do you take from UT to get to so cal? Do you take I-80 or shoot down I-15 and head south and cut across to something else?

Sounds like a crock of sh*t to me. At least he told me before I sent the deposit out today. (Saturday) So, back to the search I go. :(

that really sucks :(
have you checked flea bay yet?
http://listings.ebaymotors.com/pool1/plistings/list/all/category6623/index.html?from=R4
as long as the seller has good feedback and they offer the VIN number, i don't see why it would be different then buying from autotrader. except ebay people are supposed to sell to the hig bidder...which help rules out others buying it after you stake your claim.

Ebay always goes for higher than things are worth though. But yeah, I am checking it out now too.
