Part it out, or sell it as is? What to do?

**Kevins89notch5.0** · 08-09-2010, 10:38 PM

Ok, some might remember I blew up my daily driver 97 Civic EX last week. Well today, I bought a replacement, a 98 Civic EX, same color and all.

Old one:

New one:

So now what should I do with the old blown up civic.

Option "A" would be keep the wheels as they all have good thread, and the brand new AC compressor I had put in a month ago. Then I could part out a couple other pieces from the car, and scrap the rest.

Option "B" would be to sell it as is to someone who has the time/knowledge/motivation to drop in a new engine. If I go this route, what could I expect for a 97 EX automatic with 197K miles, a blown engine, but good tires and AC?

Just a FYI, youre an OG (light blue user name) so you can list that thing for sale on here for free...

What do ya have to lose except 5 mins of your time right?

Just a thought. And I have no idea what its worth, I am not in the H scene...

i would say just sell it for half of kbb value(private party) if it is as clean as it looks and stick buy ur price what ever it may be but DO NOT TAKE less than 800 for it as is IMO

It says I can't because my post count of 4XX is below 2500. :(

I took more pics of the car. The only major damage is someone backed into my passenger fender twice.

that's a permissions issue that hasn't been fixed or can't be.. not sure.

make the thread somewhere else, like the honda sphere lobby... and then report the post. in the reason put OG FS and we'll move it. it emails all the mods/admins when you report a thread.

Done, but I forgot to mention I'm an OG.

trying to get attention? how so?

**Kevins89notch5.0** · 08-12-2010, 04:14 AM

I'm horribly sorry a couple members PMed me, and I didn't get back to them ASAP. Its been 25 hours for the one who sent me the earliest PM. I'm sorry I work two jobs, and browsing OF isn't my main daily activity. I have responded to the person who offered me the most. If I don't hear back from them, I'll move my way down the list.

**godzhand** · 08-12-2010, 10:28 AM

**bigmike** · 08-12-2010, 10:51 AM

So you guys didn't get an answer to a PM immediately and figured he just was joking or something?

if that was the case i'd sell it to someone else just to spite you.

**godzhand** · 08-12-2010, 11:39 AM

Well its not your fucking she'll is it and money is a big influence on people. You act as if this is the last shell on earth its not that serious craiglist baby shells for days.
