Default Is this a good price?

My friend is thinking about selling his 91 crx with a Ls Vtec swap but, the swap isn't complete but it has just everything, only thing that's missing is some bolts. So my question is, is 2000 bucks a good deal?

I'm going to make this short n sweet.
Why didn't he finish it? How well does he know what he is doing?
And last but not least: I wouldn't take on a project that was only half started, mainly because you won't know if there is anything done wrong.
It may be your friend but sometimes a quick buck can blind people.

Just my .02 cents

It wasn't finished becuz money n time was a problem n the job was done good becuz I did help wit a lot of the stuff.I don't have any pix becuz the car is in storage but the car is in good shape it has small rust spots, paints good, and a little dent in da fender.

for one i would start from scratch and rip out the engine and break down the block make sure all internals look good then build it up from scratch therefor u know it was done right..as for the price its hard to say like how is the crx is it in good condition,interior, paint, exc.......then we go into the engine how many miles is on it what type of tranny it has and what not. is the head the b16 VTEC or the b18 VTEC..IF ALL IS GOOD THEN I WOULD SAY YES IT WOULD BE A GOOD DEAL!!!

Here is also a big point: did the car run fine before your friend decided to do an lsv? You don't want a car that had prblems to begin with.
