#42789 in the meantime i needed a car, my wife's brother who passed away had this car. a 94 civic dx

Image

my new daily.

i took the car back stripped everything out of it (what was left) and started looking fo another hatch. then my friend crashed the 93 si i sold him so he put it up for sale that's when i purchased the car back from him.

#42793 Looks like you (and your family/friends) didn't hit a stroke of luck in quite a while :|

Good luck on the rebuild, and get yourself a gun (or a friggin' cannon) for those pests called 'car thieves' :x

thats what i thought they didn't find the car till days after. but all they took was little thing they took the seats, interior pieces, hood, bumper, wheels, battery, plug wires intercooler and piping ect. i was suprised when i saw the motor and turbo in the car.
