Default New to honda-tech

Hello all, last year i got a good deal on a green ej1 auto so i picked it up, i drive quite a ways back and forth between school(200+plus miles a few days a week) and work hence why i rathered something auto(ny winters kinda blow). Well a few months after having it I fixed it up, new brakes, oem muffler etc. Thanks to a large deer that jumped off a hill right into the road i swerved and took it off the road, ****ed it all up and sold it, well after 2 pos **** cars i got a new honda, need some help deciding if its worth it to start cleaning up the rust and what not.Yes, I know its slow as *****, but its get 33+ mpg, and it don't scrape(yet) Thanks for the help

Pictures are probably big sorry

tellling from the pics it doesnt look bad at all, the rust could be fixed in your spare time, as long as it runs great and doesnt need "real"work then just give it a tune up and brake pads and seafoam the motor and your good to go for a daily

Greetings, I'm new here, and having read through some threads it looks like y'all have a lot of knowledgeable folks here. I've been working with a Helm Service Manual in an attempt to correct several issues with a 1992 Civic LX but have hit dead ends. I'm currently searching the forum for issue specific threads to look through resolutions and ask questions. Really thankful to have found this site.
