so in updating this project, the car sold locally today for $800. Get it out of the driveway.

I checked craigslist in 4 states and e-bay and couldn't find a decent 92 up civic for a reasonable price. Some people seem to think 200k on an engine is normal with no adjustment to book value. So the swap was becoming an expensive proposition.
There was a 96 ex in NJ for $2700 w/ 120k on it but is it really worth it to spend that kind of money just to salvage some aftermarket goodies
from the wreck. I could have parted it out as the skunk suspension apparently goes for around $600 new but frankly its not even my money.
The kid takes a $1400 beating , cuts his losses and I've got some of the money he owes back in my pocket.

A body shop guy bought the wreck , so I would imagine he can do alot more with it than i can. Good luck to him.

thanks for all your help on this forum.

And remember, winning an argument on the internet is like winning the special olympics. You may have come in first but you're still retarded.

Dude, you should have pulled that Skunk 2 suspension. You definately could have gotten quite a bit out of that on top of the car. The exhaust too.

W/E though, kid definately deserves it for being an a$$clown and passing someone so dangerously.
