Default Does this sound like a good deal??

well guys i have finally found a 91 crx si just like i have been looking for.
The cars body is in perfect shape and the interior is also in great shape minus the small rip in the driver side seat. It has a new clutch and the engine and chassis has 160 thousand miles on it. The only problem with the car is that the wiring harness has been cut. Now if you remember i already have a HF and a DX with perfect wiring harness in them. I am thinking about trying to fixing the wiring harness first and if that doesnt work i will just take the one out of my HF and put it in.
The guy is saying he will take $700 for it....what do you guys think.
NO rust NO dents NO nothing....body is in great shape!!!
Deal or no Deal

Well the guy "says" the motor is in perfect condition, its just someone cut the wiring harness on him to get back at him for something...idk.
But still yet i think i can take parts from my other two cars and piece together one bad *** crx.

So now i will have all kinds of parts for CHEAP!!!
i gotta get rid of my HF and DX...part by part.

one other thing i seen was that the vin plate was gone off the dash..
and it had a new one put in the door jam.
i asked the guy about it and he said it was like that when he bought it.
see i am buying this car out of my state so i wonder if me getting it registered is going to be a problem???

You should double check the vin. Check the one under the hood.

i did check the one under the hood and it matched the one in the door jam...also the one they riveted in the door jam is actually licensed by the state so i think everthing will come up clear. I am thinking that the car may have been stolen once, then they recovered the car and just sold it in a auction..

still i dont think 700 will be a bad price...its been hard for me to find a clean/rust free crx for cheap.
