Default opinion on 95 civic lx

Ok, so i just bought a 95 civic lx that wasnt running for five hundred bucks. The car is in rough condition, passenger fender bent passenger door hinges bent rear drivers side window motor shot and upper ball joints not good at all. I just replaced the timing belt and it started right up. I was wondering what any opinions would be for what i should do with this car. I like it and the problems seem minor and easily fixable, but i dont know what i want to do with in. It has the stock d15b7 in it and it came with dc sports short shifter and a homade cold air. and its straight pipe with cat. I am new to honda tech, ive been reading alot but this is my first post, my car also has the honda rust over the rear wheels, any help would be awesome, thanks.

Fix it. Make it reliable.

I would work on the body and get it painted, others would make it fast.

Do you think that it would be a good idea to try to fix the rust or just leave it, and also do you think i paid to much for it?

You paid too much for it.

A "well running" B7 is only worth like 100 bucks tops (and you'll be pretty damn lucky to get that).

I'd try parting it out if I were you - but that car's basically a lemon unless you have some serious money to put down for a project car.
