Default Bad Civic

Well I just got done buying my 1st civic and it's been about 2 weeks and I realize now that the car was wrecked, the list of things that need to be repaired is quite extensive. . Soon after I bought it then egine blew and had to get it replaced, I now realize that the track for the window is completley crushed(inside the door) the hood doesn't close all the way,(I suppose that could be fixed with just a new hood, there may need to be something done about the shape) the car's alignment is out of wack. Also there is a strange rattling that happens when I accelerate and when I hit the brakes, I was told that it could be the brake pads or rotors I have no idea. If you guys have any idea on where I should head with just trying to repair please help out also if necesary I can take pictures. My biggest concern is the rattling noise though.

Also if anyone could tell me how to tell what the fuses go to what that would be greatly appreciated because I think I blew a few changing my CD player.

It's not called "buyer beware" for nothing. Doing a bit of homework before buying the damn thing would have saved you a lot of money and headaches.

Good luck.
