FS in CT: 96 Integra LS, 5sp, SSM, 81k, BONE STOCK
Clean title, no modifications, two owners, non smoker, 81,427 miles
This was my DD until last Friday when texting, traveling too fast for conditions and black ice conspired to spin me around and off the road resulting in an unpleasant meeting with some forestry. Fortunately for me I missed the big tree. Unfortunately for the car I hit a couple of smaller ones. The damage is exclusively to the drivers side of the car. Front bumper, driver's side fender and door all got waffled pretty good. There is some damage to the area directly behind the front wheel well where the floor pan meets the body of the car. To be perfectly honest I have no idea how hard this will be to fix or if it's even worth it to fix. What I do know is that this was just about as perfect a 14y/o car that I'd ever seen before the accident, that's why I bought it. The original owners bought this car new at a local dealership and had it serviced there until I bought the car from them in May of 09. It was their "around town" car so the miles stayed extremely low but it was driven regularly. The only thing I wasn't thrilled about was that, as this was their third car, it stayed parked in the driveway so the paint wasn't as fresh as it could have been. The interior is immaculate with no rips, stains or burns and all electrical accessories work as they should. The engine is 100% stock and always has been. No CEL. Transmission shifts perfectly and clutch grabs well. The SRS light is on and has been since I've owned the car. All four wheels have a bit of rash but they're all round and perfectly serviceable. It doesn't LOOK like there was any damage to the front driver's side suspension but I can't be sure. There are no obvious broken bolts or bent pieces and none of the brake lines were damaged on that corner. The engine still and always has run perfectly. In the interest of brevity feel free to post any questions about things I may not have covered.
The perfect buyer for this car is someone with a project civic or integra or someone with bodywork experience that wants to get a driver/project on the cheap. Buy this car, pull everything out and install it in your vehicle for less money and in much less time than it would take to track down all big and small parts you'd need.
$2000 OBO, message me on here or email me]and I'll get back to you asap.

Fair comment. My logic on the pricing is this: hmotorsonline sells a complete b18b changeover for $2000 plus s/h. Having done business with them before, I know they are a reputable company but you will never really 100% KNOW what you're getting. The only way for that to happen is to have the car the engine comes out of. This vehicle has a legitimate, verifiable 81k on it. The other issue is that, while hmotors does a good job of providing you with the major pieces and parts required for a swap you will always end up buying more stuff. Not the case with a vehicle like this. It's drivable and possibly fixable, depending on your skills and equipment. On top of all that you have a suspension and braking system and a very clean interior to put in your car. How much more time and how much more money would be spent acquiring all the parts required to do these conversions? If I had a stock eg I was looking to turn into a fun, reliable little street fighter, or an integra shell, I would buy this car so fast it would make your head spin. Just my opinion though, the market will determine whether or not I'm right.
