First off, I'd like to thank those who replied. I ended up going with the '88 Civic. It's a 1.5L that runs amazing for the 220,000kms that are on it (although the body leaves something to be desired). In the end, the Integra owner seemed too shady for me and the fact that the underneath of the 'teg was rotted to hell turned me off of that car. I managed to pick up the Civic for $800! After a HUGE cleaning job, the car looks great (other than the rust) ... it has a few minor bugs to work out, but other than that it seems like a whole lot of car for the money. Thanks again.

Mike
