one photo provided, but it's kinda from a bad angle so you really can't tell much about the overall vehicle... although it does appear that it was probably garaged for much of its life due to the near-pristine looking body panels, windshield trim, etc.

plus... it's got a hood scoop!

thanks for posting those photos

engine was probably taken because it looks like a low-mileage wagon, or at least one that was well-cared-for... I'd be curious to know what the odometer reading is

those front seats are definitely not stock and look to be in excellent condition... they might be worth grabbing

lots of good body parts up for grabs there too

Never in my days have I seen someone pull a motor and disconnect everything like that. Around here, people pull motors with knives and hack saws. What a gentleman.

i know, i was shocked at how politely everything had been removed. we're truly a community 😂

the radio housing i needed was neatly taken off and the screws stored in the console bucket, somebody had already grabbed the radio.

many will just wreck the parts they do not want. I always try and be considerate, and if I remove parts I will not be buying I leave them in an obivous place for someone else (saved them from having to remove them).

some years ago I had two first gen CRX two seaters, one a parts car, I was building one up for my daughter. they came with ABS plastic front fenders, very light, but as they age they get brittle and any little impact results in shatter plastic, almost impossible to repair. everyone with one of these early little Hondas looks for good front fenders, otherwise you get to sculpt out repairs with fiberglass cloth and bondo. One really clean body CRX showed up at the local pick and pull, I got to it the first day it was on their inventory. Some selfish jackass who wanted the head light assemblies put a claw hammer at the front of the perfect plastic fenders and ripped off the front 6" of the fender to expose the headlight assembly mounting bolts. I could not believe it. I hated that jackass no matter what his logic was. destroyed likely the only two perfect fenders in the state.
