Default Just got a 1983 Civic 1300FE

I found this car while actually looking for a car for a friend. The Civic has been parked behind the pervious owners barn for the past 2.5 years. The TX sun has not been kind to the paint and some of the interior pieces. I now she is rough now, but hopefully I can bring her back to life. Any suggestions or tips would be appreciated.

The gentleman that I purchased it from informed me the engine had been swapped with an 83 Accords engine, but they never were able to get it running. I plan to see if I can get it going with the engine that is in it. If not I plan to do a B series swap probably an engine out of a 1994 Teg. Hopefully I can get some of my other projects done and start on this one soon.

Take care,

Captds

Any luck getting it running, or swapping the engine for a B series?
