Did any of the hatches come with power steering, cause I dont think my SI has it...hmm

[Melt]

Dfarres has power steering, but thats cause his hatch used to be an auto. Apparently the A/T hatches came with a lot of shit the M/T ones didnt.

LX / EX sedan ownz j00 all. Cruise, power everything, automatic seatbelts, and then I got the R134A A/C coversion. 30 degree air!! Whoo!

Lowball him first. $600 sounds okay, but with body damage, always try and get lower. But I cant see any pics either, so I dont know.

More pics, but first here's an email from her
""It doesn't need the front end replaced just a frame that is right behind the front tires and another frame that is right behind the rear tire or somewhere in that area. None of the suspension looks like its messed up at all. All the suspension looks like it is in working order.""
Pics


and here's the damage pics from right behind the front tire



and behind the rear tire


I think I'm gonna try to get her down to $450-$500. Do you guys still think it's worth the price?

Ouch. I wouldnt pay over $300 myself.

Is that just a cracked frame in the back? And what am I looking at in the front? How much would I be looking at spending on parts and stuff if I did all the work myself, and could I just weld the frame back up instead of replacing it?

Well, that top picture is the steering rack. I forgot what that little thing right there is called specifically.

The bottom two are whats the worse problem. I suppose if you had a good frame puller, you could pull that bottom piece out. That is where the lower control arm bolts to. That is why the back tire is pulled in so far. That may be hard to get perfect again, so you may end up having camber problems.

Im not sure what the third and fourth pictures are of. Maybe you know?

Also, our cars have a uniframe. Which means there is no frame that can just be fixed, like in a truck, etc.

It looks like most of that is just labor on pulling, welding, etc. I doube they sell replacement parts for those.

No idea, she just said that's the frame right behind the front tires.

that car is gonna take a lot of work. i don't think it is really worth the effort. it is definitely a project. it's a judgement call on your part. i wouldn't touch do it, but that is my opinion.
