87 RT4WD - new here

Hey everyone, I just picked this up last week.



This is shortly after a nice wash and wax
From what I can tell it was a great find with only 114,000kms! And very solid :!: . I plan I driving it pretty much as is for now as I'm trying to free up some $ for my last year of school...I'm selling my 2000 Golf TDI to come up with extra $; there has been a huge change in driving style since getting the Civic...I was used to uber amounts of torque pretty much at idle
. Nonetheless I'm liking it already! I can't wait for the winter to really put the 4WD to the test :P
It's missing a few OEM parts I'm looking for though, that are discontinued...like the shift knob/boot, the "RealTime 4WD" decals on the rear doors (which I'll probably get reproduced)...so I'm looking like a mad man to find all these goodies with no luck yet. I fully realize I won't be able to access the market place for sometime cuz I'm a slow poster but if anyone has tips, a PM would be very much appreciated!
Nice to meet you all!
Mat

Are you kin to Richard Loiselle?
No it must be a different clan lol. There's a whole other set of "Loiselle's" in and around Sudbury.
Are you or were you from around here?
