1989 Honda Civic DX 4Dr 77k Original Miles
Make: Honda
Model: Civic
Year: 1989
Transmission: Automatic
Miles: 77,500 (Original)
Title: Clean
Location: Leesburg, AL
Price: $2500 obo
First thing is first here. I know this isn't the car for everyone, and some won't like the price, but remember just because you don't like something doesn't mean that someone else won't like it. I have spent a lot of time and money on this car getting it to be mechanically perfect, and it will make someone a great daily driver for many years to come, and it isn't everyday that nearly 30 year old civics come up with this low of miles. I am not here to argue with anyone. If you don't like the car or the price, then please just move on. There is no need to post your opinion. Thanks guys.
For sale here I have my daily driver for the past couple of years. It only has 77,500 original miles on it, and I have the autocheck for the car to prove. There is even an oil change sticker in the window from when the oil was changed in 09 at 56k miles. Mechanically this car is absolutely perfect. When I bought the car it had around 70k miles on it, and it had a bad engine. The owners at the time took the car to Wal-Mart and got the oil changed, and they overtightened the drain bolt and stripped it out, so the oil eventually leaked out, and the motor locked up. I bought an engine from a friend who had a wrecked 92 Civic with 86k miles on it, and when I did I changed out pretty much everything I could with OEM Honda parts including:
HeadGasket
Headbolts
Thermostat
Timing Belt
Water Pump
Tensioner
Front Seal
Rear Seal
Oilpan Gasket
Oil Pickup Gasket
Full Valvecover Gasket Set
Cam Seal
Distributor O-Ring
Coil
NGK Plugs
NGK Plug Wires
Trans Fluid
AC has been recently serviced, so it blows ice cold.
ALL OEM HONDA PARTS
The car also has new brake pads, brake rotors, and brake lines. Also has newer tires.
The interior of the car is also in very good condition for it's age. If you have ever seen any 88-91 Civics before, then you will know they are very common for having torn up interior. The exterior of the car isnt the greatest. The original owner of the car was an older lady that parked it under a tree, and as you can see from the miles the car sat A LOT. It has dents and dings, and the paint is faded. I built the car to be a car that I could drive forever and not have to worry about fixing a whole bunch. The car gets between 30-32mpg depending on driving. If you are someone that is looking for a cheaper car that gets good gas mileage, will run forever, has cold AC, and aren't terribly worried about appearances, then this is the car for you.
Bads: Dents, Dings, faded paint. Also the driver's window regulator is messed up, but I have one to replace it, and if I have time it will be replaced, if not it will come with the car. Honda Revs in park

Please excuse no picture with name. I am out of town until Sunday, and I can get one then. I have had a few different cars for sale on here, so I hope this will be ok.
