Default 86si, 12 valve power bitches

I just thought id post up the winter beater i just picked up. It cost me more to register it and put tabs on it than it did to buy it. Im the third owner of the car and i bought it from a 65 year old guy who towed it around behind his motor home. I love this car, its just alot of fun to drive. So what do you guys think?

ya, over the winter im slowly gonna take care of the rust spots. Only one spot is all the way through. The rest are mostly harsh surface rust. Its getting about 42ish MPG right now. I got an Alpine cd player from work for free (I work in a wrecking yard) and threw the intake on it today lol. I love this car, its just fun to drive. who knows, mabe a B series swap in the spring since i have like 6 motors in my shop.

Nice car for a DD.

Evertime I see these older gen Civics makes me wish I would have kept my first car, a 82' Civic hatch.
