Default CRX CRISIS

Im between either keeping this rusty piece of ****, or finding a shell with no rust on the frame, either anotehr crx or ef hatch, preferably crx and transfering all my good stuff (suspension, engine, etc over) im having trouble finding a shell, but take a look at these pics, its gonna be a bitch to fix this. theres a major hole in teh rear, 1/4 panels gone, and my frame is rusted.

Get a widebody kit and some altezza's and a neon plate frame. That will distract everyone from the nasty rust spots. Granny's will drop their panties when you roll past the bus stop.

i did get owned. i sold a rust-free 91 dx auto and bought this POS. now im back looking for another CRX. Once i move in July, i hope to have a 2door garage in which i can park my shell and my POS and just do it. learn how to do an engine swap, and i can do everything else. its depressing looking at that hole, knowing that somehting could fall thru it... someone please find me a shell... i hate red

i was gonna do teh 1/4s and teh hole, but then i figured, well, the frame is rusting, why bother? im about to get a 4th gen hatch for autox and have a backseat for my bitches, cause theyve been complaining lately. crx or civic shell, please send it my way, thanks, dave

Just get another shell dude, dont think a shell alone would cost too much

Besides I reckon fixing up all that rust would cost more than a new shell and the rust would eventually turn up again anyways.

get a body shop to bend you a new quarter panel piece to weld in... weld in a piece of metal into what looked like the sparte tire hole.

then paint it up.. dont get rid of a car that becomeing few and far between

the chances of that are slim. I've noticed that in the last 2 years, crx's have been becoming less and less easy to find. I use to see them all the time and now I never see another crx on the road.
