another nice-looking rig, judging from the one photo posted... no info on mileage, MT or AT, et al.

yes, that would have the manual trans. body looks in great condition, what a shame it likely just needed some mechanical repair and they sold it to the wrecking yard rather than fix it.

I pulled some parts from this car today!

It has an altimeter/inclinometer, which some jerk had pried into but left half-detached (got confused??). The interior was in almost as good condition as mine, and exterior had an astonishing lack of rust or visible damage...really crazy that it was left for junk. Made me sad, too! :cry:

emilyrobin, did you happen to check the odometer to see how many miles it had on it?

too bad about the inclinometer getting damaged. they're not hard to remove so i don't know how people end up wrecking them in the process.

Many people that go to picknpull are selfish pigs, they will damage everything around the part they want using pry bars rather than the proper tools pull them off to get acess. the low lifes likely did not even want the inclinometer for themselves but thought they could put in on ebay. One time I was at the local picknpull and found parts for my daughter's crx. The early CRX have all plastic front fenders and front parts, they always get chipped up and damaged and are difficult to fix because most glues will not stick to them, and no one makes replacements. one came in that had two rare and perfect front fenders on it, but the s**t for brains that got there before me wanted the headlights, and to give himself access to the mounting bolts he put pry bars under the plastic fenders and front piece and shattered them just so he can get his socket wrench on the headlight mounts. This was particular angering because you do not need to remove the fenders to get the head lights out. If I caught them I would have given them a verbal tonge lashing, this kind of senseless waste always burns me up, even if I do not want the parts for myself.
