I could only take a quick look at it b4 i had to head off to work . Will take a better look at it tommorow. I was wondering...

Do HFs ever come stock w/ A/C? Also are they basically like a STD hb? TIA</TD></TR></TABLE> no ac (hf's just have the basic's) but $100 is a great deal

HF's come 5spd and they have mpfi..Not 4spd and dpfi like the std..
They get like 50mpg if they running right..And the 88 hf is only 1800lbs..

When I bought my CRX, the owner also did not have the pink. They only had the vehicle transfer sheet so they sign that with my signature and went to the DMV today to register the vehicle. Now I only need the smog certificate to be fully register.

If the car has been seating at the shop for a while and the owner hasn't called asking for it, the shop can legally sell it to get the money they spent on it to fix it if they haven't been paid.
