Default Two cars and what to do. 91 hatch 99 integra

So i have two cars here and I'm trying to figure out what to do with them.

1991 civic hatch DX D15 engine, 5 speed, Super mint condition. Very very little rust. 96k miles. All stock.
1999 Integra Basically a GSR. It was an LS but the previous owner had swapped in a Jap. B18c gsr engine unknown miles runs good.
The previous owner of the integra hit a curb and it needs some control arms, a fender, a bumper. nothing too major.
I just want NA, not going turbo. I want to do some autocross, some HPDE events. Neither of these is my daily driver. So my options look like this.

Fix the integra and keep both as is
Pull what i want off the integra and put it in the civic. Motor, trans, seats, brakes and whatever else fits.
Sell the civic and fix up the Integra. Because the Integra already has the motor i want in it.
Pull the motor and trans out of the Integra and sell both and buy a nicer body Integra to put the motor in.

I live in NJ and one great thing that happened here recently is 1995 and older cars do not require inspection at all. So if i get a 1995 or older car then i can swap in the b18c and have no worries about an inspection sticker. Now with the 1999 Integra. I'll have to get it through inspection.

Oh and the Integra has a Salvage title. So im not even sure i can get it on the road in NJ.

Same, I know you can put the DC2 center console in an EF without too much trouble. Thats the only reason I have cupholders in mine!

It looks like the damage to the car is more extensive than i thought. I didn't even notice that when i picked up the car. I only paid $1000 for the car and just the motor is worth more than that so that's OK. Looks like when the car hit the curb or whatever, the whole wheel and suspension pushed in the wheel well. I guess it could be hammered and pulled back out. That may be more than i want to do. But then after all that, would it be 100% straight? This could be all the more reason to swap parts into the civic.
