Beater 1985 Honda CRX DX 97000 miles Auction Sat Mar 15 Pontiac MI

For those of you who want a 1st gen CRX but want to get it for almost nothing. The 85 CRX they have is #46 on the list. I went to look at it myself today. It's a beater with potential. The body has some surface rust but generally not too bad. The black moldings around the windows need replacement. The hood needs painting. The interior needs work. The engine has a three barrel carb with vacuum and mechanical advance distributor. The car starts but needs help - a blast of starter fluid is needed.
I hoped it was an HF but alas it was a DX - oh well. I posted a couple of my own pics on www.flickr.com if you want to see them. Do a people search and enter jadziasman to see the photos. The VIN number is there too. I think this car will sell for under $500 easy. It looks like it can be restored. I don't have a place to keep it otherwise I would have bid on it and worked on it to make it reliable.

Volunteers of America has a weekly auction of used cars in Pontiac MI- some of them are worthwhile.

If you live close enough and want a 1st gen CRX to play with, this could be the time.
