Default Out with the old, in with the new

Hey everyone,

about a month ago I got in my first accident, and totalled my 95 civic coupe

Here are some of the pics:







I got $3000 from insurance and after weeks of searching, I am the proud owner of another ej1, but with a clean title and in mint condition! Sadly, its an autotragic, but I plan on driving it until the transmission falls out and doing a swap haha. Picked it up for $2600 with 170,000 miles, which isn't too bad of a price for a civic in western washington.













So tell me what ya think!

Minty freshness. Any other plans besides 5-speed conversion?

Umm, I'm really not sure at this point. I need to get a stable job first. The thing that sketchy about my old coupe was that it had a rebuilt title. I rear-ended someone trying to change lanes on the freeway in rush hour traffic, hit them going about 45 mph and the airbags still didn't go off.
