I'm going with the CRX... only because all the other cars listed have flip-up headlights..... and I looks like that pile of scrap had fixed headlights...... but it's pretty mangled, so It's just a guess!

its deffinitly not a rex (crx, sorry i spent alot of time at http://crx.honda-perf.org while i was attempting to build my rust bucket rex) just cause im familiar with what the front ends look like mangled.. my buddy has now had 4 of them... an 87 (front end accident killed it), 88 (me and him rolled it 12 times when we got cut off by a truck), an 89 (he striped it and gave it to me... i striped it, spent alot of money on parts.. then realised it was too rusted to care about) and a 90... im way to familiar with the cars... thats not a crx... at least... dear god i hope not.. other wise i will look like an idiot! and im too new at this forum for that to happen lol-Pete "spent all my paycheck on my car again" S.

Anymore guesses? I want to see some good guesses before I tell its story. I will give the hint that its FWD and it was a POS when I made my mistake and bought it.

Geez Bandit, I can't even tell if it's upside down or rightside up. That thing is trashed!

I'm gonna guess an 84 CRX based on what I THINK is the blue-over-silver paint scheme...

What do I get if I win?

It was a 86 Honda CRX. I paid $150 for it and drove it for 2 weeks before the head gasket blew. We made a yard buggy out of it frist then just crushed it. It is right side up. It was blue, but at some time someone painted it white.

My 84 CRX didn't look too much better than that at 320K - and it still ran!

Got her airborne AT LEAST 30 times (desert parties). F'ed up putting in a sunroof so I made it a targa top. Was too flexible so I had a friend weld in a half-@ss rollcage... Never replaced the rest of the interior (lazy). What a POS.

Fun car, though.
