Longtime Honda owner, but new here.
 
Greetings!

I have to admit I signed on here to tap into the group's wisdom.

My wife's faithful '88 Civic AWD Wagon seems to have expired on us.Over the past summer"Honda Wanda" was getting harder and harder to start. My wife kept mentioning it might be time for a tune up. Then one day she refused to start altogether.25 psi in all four holes makes me think 205,000 miles was all the rings could handle.

Sooo... I want to make room in the driveway. Is this car worth anything parted out or whole, or do Ipay to have it hauled off and scrapped? What do y'all think?

Thanks, and Happy New Year!

200,000 miles on an 88 honda civic shouldn't have killed the engine.

if you hate paying car payments, i say do an engine rebuild.

either that or buy an EG hatch and drop a k20 in it. :-P
