hey guys in new to these forums, I have just purchassed a 90 honda civic 4 dr and I do honestly believe that is is the cleanest origional 4th gen I have seen in my life... it got rear ended and so the back is damaged but i drove it up from San Diego to Sacramento... origional owner for 13 YEARS car bought brand new. motor is perfect cond with only 129k miles!!!and auto. tranny is drives perfect. owner showed me recipts of all services performed to the vehicle over the years oil changed before every 3,000 miles, man did this guy love his car?? ..and all interior is perfect and super duper clean and blue in color.
The reason i am informing all of you about this car is because i am thinking about parting it out.. id love to keep it, but i dont know how much it would cost to get the rear repaired?? i do have a digital camera so if any of you guys need parts please do let me know so i can determine wether or not to proceed with the parting out of the vehicle..
either post here or e-mail me at [email protected]

hahaa ok sorry for the cofusion... The interior is extremley clean... as the rear end looks like poop. The model is a DX with all manual, has Ac., is an automatic and is blue on blue.
A simple "Hi David welcome to 4thgenerationcivic.com" would have been appreciated as opposed to commenting on my post..
Not to be a smart ass, but crxlvr what is it exactly that you want pictures of, I specified that anyone who needs pictures will recieve them upon request... if your just looking for anything, I can take a picture of my hubcap and send it to you.

Welcome to the forum, I think you should get an estimate on the repair.
The car is way too clean to be parting out.

Whell Jmunk, I do appologize for your inability to think.. as painfull as it would be, had it ever occured to you that you could just turn your head 90 sideways and that should give you a better view.. altough the picture as is is just fine.... if you are mentaly retarded i do appologize..
also, in responce to your inability to quote on quote "view the picture(s)" plural... only one picture is turned on its side.. if you cant see the first one straight then may I help you out by recommending a eye doctor..

Hey man, nice car from what I have seen so far of it, would be nice to see some pics of the exterior though.
Just a bit of advice, lighten up, jmunk was kidding around, no reason to get all offended.
If you do indeed part it out I am interested in the following.
Front seats
Floormats (if they are the stock originals)

Thanks Melt. How bad is the body damage, like previsouly stated it's almost too clean to part out. Might be worth fixing.

In 90 - 91 they went to automatic restraints. This was due to new regulations that required either an airbag or a passive restraint for us stupid americans to lazy to use our seatbelts...then when we get ejected from the car and fly across the interstate after a collision, our families sue the state and get big $$$$ cuz we were a lazy dumb-ass...this way at least there is something holding u back I guess. The lap belt is still a manual process :rolleyes: - this auto seatbelt is why us peeps with 90 -91 sedans can't put in an Integra arm-rest/center console...cuz the roll for the shoulder belt is in between the seats :bloated:
In 92 when they brought in the 5th gen, they had airbags...I think those seatbelts on the sedans were an easier fix than re-designing the 4th gen to accomodate an airbag. I always warn new passengers when they get to watch out for the strangling seatbelt ;) The hatches have a completely different set up, and it is even more cumbersome.
Oh, and welcome new guy.. :wave: - it is pretty clean...I would get an estimate on fixing the car...then decide what you want to do. I recently had a small accident in the back (some young kid wasn't apying attention and rear-ended me :mad: ) - and the estimate was $1600...so I bought my own parts off the Internet and some used ones from a junkyard, and saved a few bucks.
