FS: 88 CRX Si shell
Hey Everyone
I got a 88 CRX Si shell for sale! (Doesn't include motor/trans, wheels. Shocks/springs are a maybe)
The bad:
-Got in a minor accident so there is some frontal damage.
-The hood was pretty much destroyed so it was removed, bumper hangs down a bit but still okay.
-New driver's side fender would be ideal, I could get one for you for ~120 bucks or so (oem), or you could try bending the one on the car.
JDM front clip would come with new fenders though so that would fix the problem if you were to go that route.
-Driver's headlight is smashed (I HAVE A CLEAN headlight to replace it with!!! The one on the car was moldy anyways. =P)
Passenger headlight is non-moldy
-As far as structural wise, the front area where the radiator and headlights bolt up to is a little bent, it wouldn't be too hard though to push/pull it back. The radiator was still fine after the hit (didn't leak coolant or anything) though so it wasn't like it was a hard impact. It was ~10mph impact and the car that I hit was still moving 3-4 mph.
This car would be PERFECT for a JDM front clip swap or someone who just wants a good project car. The car drove PERFECT after the accident, steering wheel is center, the car didn't pull to the left or right, the engine ran fine and didn't overheat, the overall shell is fine except for the VERY front where it's bent a little bit. Like I said before...JDM frontclip swap would be a GREAT way to go about fixing the car, or if you know of another CRX with a clean front end you could swap that right on. There all over junkyards, i've seen quite a few at my local junk yards.
The good:
-New quarter panels...I replaced both of them, they're 500 (OEM) a piece and
installation was a little over 1k alone...costed over 2000 dollars right there.
-New driver's side door...$550 bucks for a door, OEM door, just replaced it.
-Only really has some rust on the underside of car, exterior is very clean
-Have all the trim molding
-Have full interior (minus cargo divider/hatch carpet...it's all one piece.)
-New carpet...$200
-A clean set of CRX Si seats with NO tears...$150 bucks (got a good deal on the seats!)
-Stainless Steel Thermal Exhaust $450
-DA Integra Front Disc Brakes $300
-90-91 Si Rear Disc Brakes (88-89 Si's had rear drums.) Also swapped the correct 40/40 proportioning valve in, e-brake cables, brake lines, etc. $250
-All suspension components have new energy suspension poly bushings including the main trailing arm bushing that always rips when
lowered on OEM bushings. $150
-New ***** joints OEM $120
-New Tie rod ends OEM $120
-Championship white paintjob
(not a perfect paint job but it's descent and it's actual paint, not some primered hatch...paid 2800, yes I know, I got ripped off HARDCORE!)
It was the cheapest price though at the time and they got the car done fast so that was a plus!
-I left the engine bay black cause I thought it looked good, I was planning on making the car a panda in the end, but never worked out.
Door jams, etc are all painted Championship white.
-Lightest year EF you can buy by far, also it's an Si so it's already wired for MPFI and it's fully loaded. (2017 lbs with a full tank of gas and everything...that's what it was rated by honda.)
Shoot me some offers! Best offer takes it home! This was my daily drive, I'd honestly fix it if I had the money and the time but my garage is being torn down so I have no where to work on this and don't have the money right now because I just paid for tuition, books and insurance!
Basically looking to sell this and pickup another shell for just a daily drive...I love this car to death but I'm getting in way over my head if I were to keep it. =\
PLEASE! No low *****! I put way too much effort/time/money (you can see how much from the stuff above) into this car, if you're going to lowball, don't post!
