Default 91 teal si oem original owner update!!!!!!

I just picked up a 91 civic si from the original owner. I found it on craigslist seattle. He wanted 950 for it with a bad bottom end. I offered him 1200 if I could pick it up in four days, because I didnt have the money. He agreed so I drove up to seattle and looked at it. I like it, so i gave him 1200. Went home, the next day I went back with a truck and trailor and pick it up. He gave me every receipt he ever spent on the car and the window sticker too. owners manules too

Heres some photos

Damn, I almost bought this car too, but it was up in WA and I didn't have time to get up there. I ended up with a red '90 Si hatch...also bought from the original owner. The interior is nearly perfect, and it has OEM optional foglights and dash switch too. Anyone want to buy it? I don't really like red, I want a white 89-90 Si.
