Default Wondering if i payed the right price

I bought a 92 Civic Cx hatch with a B18c1 obd1 and was wondering if i payed the right amount.

Body had 205,000 miles, a few little door dings, and a little rust starting on both sides of top back tire wells.
The motor have was rebuilt at 81,237 miles and had 123,000 mile when i bought it.
The tranny did have a slight grind into second, but i got that fixed.
Car also had Del sol seats in perfect condition, gsr cluster, type r shift boot, short ram intake, new 2.5 exhaust all the way back.
i payed 3000.00 for it.
??????????

I dunno man, did you ever do a compression check or anything like that? If all the compression numbers are good, it sounds good, and looks good, I guess thats an okay price, but you could never know how long itll last because you dunno how the seller treated and drove it when he had it..

yeh that is a really good price, especially for the engine that is in it. Like andres, i would check to see if it is a legal motor.

but otherwise sounds like a nice buy. just fix the body and rust and you'll be in good shape.

Oh, I didnt think you knew the person that did it, since you do, and since hes a good guy, then thats a nice price. Id definately pay that.
