Re: passenger brake doesn't work! Help please!

please please please don't dismantle that CRX if I was in the US I'd come round and buy it from you.Surely an advert on E bay would get it sold in one bit?That's a great little car....

Re: passenger brake doesn't work! Help please!

It's already done.

I tried selling it several different ways and had no serious offers. I found that I could get more for this car in parts than I could have selling it as a whole.

I was asking $4,000 for the car or $4,500 for the car and all my spare parts (mostly rare parts). I would have been happy with $3,800 for the car, but no one had an offer that even came close. I'm just about to reach a total of $5,500 for the parts off my car and some of my spares, and I haven't even sold 2/3rds of my spares yet.

What a shame people missed the oportunity,it's hard to find well modified 3G Civics or CRX's over here,plenty of big spoiler rubbish though.
May she rest in peace,good luck with your new project.

She's not dead yet.

I sold the shell to a friend of mine who will be putting it back together with some of my spare parts and some parts from another friend. Between the 3 of us, we have all the parts needed to put this car back together.

That sucks. Your car was my inspiration. *sighs* Now what am I going to do.... I need one of those hoods, though. Know of how to get one for a fair price?

I sold mine for $400, you probably won't find a better deal than that. Sometimes they pop up for sale on RPR, but most people are holding on to their hoods since they have temporarily gone out of production.

the POS datsun carb went tits up and the more i tore into it i discovered that one of the previous owners did a number on it and it was pretty much beyond repair. i had an 82 accord carb siting in a box and everything to make it run so i made an adapter plate and mounted that sucker on there, runs like a charm.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. I thought you meant that you swapped a Honda motor into a Datsun.

Wow. This place has gone belly-up. Is everyone still alive out there?
