has anyone here bought a crx for $50 bucks...if so, how did you find it and what condition is it in?

 

I was thinking of picking up an 89 dx hatch I found for 100 bucks but I went to take a closer look at it and it was completely stripped...no motor, interior, anything. Pretty much just the shell. I decided to pass since it would have been a time consuming effort to restore and I didn't have time

 

i baught a hatch for 200 canadian.. it WAS in great condition.. lol had a cheap painjob to cover the rust but it only needed wiper blandes to pass a legit inspection.

girl bought a brand new car and her landlord wanted the car gone.

 

bought a 90 civic hatch at an auction for 50 3 years and $7000 later im drivin it

 

ill buy yours for 50 bucks

 

it is prob pretty torn up for 50 bucks

 

I bought a 86 dx for $100. It had a warped head and block. Seats were ripped and it had three holes in the floor. Body was pretty good, header panel was cracked. About $3000 and a fuel injection conversion later, I sold it. $50 go for it.

 

Do you really hate the crx? I think its a fun car to drive, more fun than most new cars in fact, that why i still have a couple kicking around.

Before you flame someone maybe you should do some searching so it doesnt look like your talking out of your ***, gator has posted up plenty of usefull information. Besides this is a forum and not a helpline.

No apparently he is referring to some tv show, gator is a crxwhore at heart.

 

ok heres a little timeline.

1998
$400 89 CRX Si Salvage title. 91 HX parts car included.
2002
$100 90 Civic Hatch DX, minor rust, wouldn't run, bad ignitor
2004
$300 88 Civic Hatch DX, even less rust, very minimal, snapped timming belt.

Collectivly has had more than the owner cares to disclose invested in them. Owner is looking into a 89 Civic 4door for $50 at the time of this post.

 

mine was 50 bucks, perfect interior, only minor rear 1/4 rust, my friend fell asleep at the wheel (he works insane hours) and he messed up the front pretty good.

i had all the body work done, b16 swap, now its a decent little car, the front still isnt 100% perfect, but i did save that thing from the junkyard, which im pretty proud of.

 

Pretty sure that Im jelous...

 

Bought my old 88 std for $75 from a salvage yard..

Had a newer motor and clutch and ran great..except for the rusted out gas tank and fuel lines..Also the 1/4 panels were gone..But it had a clean title..

 

i got an 88 civic sedan and an 88 hatch for $150.
Sold the hatch (body and interior trashed) and now i'm fixing the sedan. some rust, but runs great.

 

I gave one to a buddy for a 20oz of mountain dew, it was a red 88 dx, it had some rust but it ran and drove.
I bought it for $100 and took a few parts off it and sold for more then what I payed.

I used to work at a car audio shop, and when little old ladies came in hatches, or any car I wanted for that matter, I would give them a card with my name, and number on it, and tell them if you ever sell this...... One of the little old ladies called me back, thats how I got the 90 hatch for $100.
