$200 finders fee to anyone who finds one that's good within 500 miles of me (Wilkes-Barre, PA) . . . . meaning anything from Raleigh NC to Kentucky to Cleveland OH to Boston MA...... although I MUCH prefer finding a "southern" car.
Thanks.

I have a 90 dx hatch. It was originally from Chicago. I purchased it from the original owner's niece who bought it in August 2002 from her aunt (the original owner). She moved down here to New Orleans and the cam broke in two. So I bought it from her in September 2002. This car is in excellent condition. The paint looks new though it is original....very shiny. Its a light grey color with grey/black interior that is also in excellent condition with a slight wear in the drivers seat bolster....common on all civics. I am currently in the process of installing a new dx motor in the car. The old broken motor has been removed. Since the car was originally from Chicago, it has no a/c. The car has two small rust spots, one above rear wheel well and the other on lower rear corner of passenger side door. The car is in amazingly good shape. I cannot describe how excellent the paint and interior are on this car. If interested let me know. I'm asking $2200 for it with a running stock dx motor. The chassis has 108K miles. The motor has 89K miles. Please reply to this post or email me at STF747@aol.com

 

Thanks for that complete description.... but I'm really looking for a base model from 88 or 89. Very specifically those years and that trim. the dx is a little heavier and the 90 is a little heavier still with the door bars/passive restraints. Thanks for your time on that though!!!!

Jesus... don't you all read? He said 88-89 ONLY!

 

ha ha... yeah. I really need an 88-89 car. There's a difference in weight. And this is going to be a Street Modified autocross car that needs to be light light light!!! Thanks again though. Those darn 88-89 base models are hard to find in good shape.
