Default Lookin to buy a hatch. Advice wanted ^^

I am currently looking to get into the honda/civic scene, but I am fairly new and am looking for some advice on my first hatchback. First off I live in the midwest (Indiana) and am in the price range of about 4k (depending on how far I have to go).
I am willing to drive pretty far amount to get a solid civic.

With that in mind if you have any other cars to suggest or like this one and think it is a good deal feel free to comment.

The rims are ugly as sin, but that can always be replaced. Just not sure about the price of 4k.....well here ya go please tell me what you think:


the car runs and drives strong.
RUST FREE!!
the car was going to be set up as a track car but im losing interest in it.
i am looking for civics and tegs mainly. but ill entertain everything.
please no low ball offers. i have decent money in this guy.
call anytime at 330 248 3172

OBD1 B16 Swap
MSD ignition
DC header
Energy susp. bushings all in the front.
megan racing rear lower control arms

Personally, i wouldnt buy that green civic. Its been pieced together and really doesnt look so hot. That 1996 hatch looks the best and is a fair price it would be my 1st choice. Then the 1993 grey hatch located in Ross. Keep looking bro something better will show up.

Good to hear. Thanks for the advice. I will prob keep lookin around. I like the grey one, but I want some more pictures before deciding anything.

The red 96 looks decent too. Gah...I hate this area though. Everyone wants an obsured amount for their cars.
