Is this civic worth 2.5k?
Alright, so im looking for a cheap car, because of problems with my eclipse, and i see this 93-95 civic hatch with a for sale sign. So i went and talked to the guy for a lil bit, and he told me it had a ls swap, and a few other mods, like it was lowered, had rims, and other small mods. not the car isnt in good shape, the front bumper isnt on correctly, it needs a paint job, it needs brakes, and a new starter. On the bright side, it comes with skunk exhaust, but currently runs straight pipe. So what do you guys think, is 2.5k a fair price? Because I was thinking more on the lines of 1.5k to 2k

And even the engine in the 2g DSM is prone to crankwalk

The engine isnt the problem, its everything else, just like what was said, lol. I would take the time to get it fixed, but when they quoted me close to 1k just for the A/C, thats when i knew i needed a new car. Love the car, just need a change.
When I saw the civic hatch, I knew I had to have it, but not at 2.5k. Im thinking about offering him 1.5k and seeing where it goes from there? I think he thinks the swap is worth more than it really is

I would see the swap as a negative if I was just looking for a beater DD. I don't want some half-ass swap job from someone that doesn't know what they're doing. Thats how you get ridiculous problems that are hard to diagnose. My $.02.

Oh, did i mention that it needs a part made for the clutch to work? Lol but the engine is a b18 with type r head. I contacted him yesterday and he's saying " ive got other people interested", which im sure is just a sales pitch haha

Sounds like a huge headache. Even if you get the car for $1500, you are going to need to fix a lot of stuff on it, so the car will prob end up costing you $3-4000. If I were you, I'd just buy a stock Civic and keep it stock.
