Newb from Canada, looking for a wagon

hey folks. My name is Matthew, im 22, from Manitoba Canada and Im looking for a 2nd gen honda civic wagon. I have always had "different" taste in cars than most people i know lol. I prefer late 80's early 90's imports, preferably wagon or hatchback style. I currently am down to 5 cars, and over the last 6 years or so that I have had my license I have had about 15 different cars in total. I have owned everything from a 65 impala to a 91 3000gt to a 90 240sx. Currently I have an 87 crx si (parts car), 84 crx hf (project car), 88 integra ls (parts car), 91 passat wagon (parts car) and a 91 passat sedan (daily beater). Some of you guys might recognize me from rpr. I wanted to join Honda Civic Wagon because I have always wanted a civic in wagon form, just haven't been able to find one. I am hoping to find one soon enough so that I can make it my daily driver / small project car while I work on my crx project. If you guys have any questions about my cars or previous cars please feel free to ask. I have already looked around the site a fair bit and its full of awesome build threads and neat ideas. I'll be quiet now and leave you with a few pics of my daily beater and my project car.

daily beater (picked up super cheap, but has worked great as a daily beater so far. grey spots are because it just rained, and some spots dried before the rest. the lower half is all one color of flat black)

    welcome... nice rex...
  • cool rex. is that a houseman kit?
    thanks. and nope, i think its called a motorsports kit, but ill get the exact name for you tomorrow when im not so tired lol. It came from Toronto, I bought it off of a friend when he moved from Ontario to BC last summer. I was talking to another guy who has the same kit, and last he knew there were only five of these kits left in existence, and mine was the only unmounted one. They have been discontinued awhile ago, and when they were being made they were a bit pricier and not alot of people wanted them, so they never sold alot. When i first seen some pics my buddy sent me of it I thought it was a houseman kit too to be truthful.
    welcome... nice rex...
    thanks and thanks :)

    Hi,
    Welcome, from another "newbie," to the forum! I might have a wagon to sell in a couple weeks. I just have to re-install the power steering and put a new alternator in before I put it on the market. Feel free to message me later this month to check on progress.

    It is a fair hike, but its a nice looking wagon. I will have to keep it in mind and watch your thread. :)
  • so i've decided that i am going to try and sell my crx project off so i have room to pick up a wagon. the crx project consists or 2 crx's and an integra, so if i can sell the package ill have alot more room for a wagon project. i'll let you guys know how i make out lol.
  • can I buy your wheels? lol

    lol its funny you say that. in the ads i posted to sell my crx's, i wrote at the end that the aftermarket wheels on the blue crx are not for sale or included. even with that, iv had several people email me asking if i would sell the rims seperately. :x lol so no, no you may not :lol: but they are not an overly expensive wheel. they are called xxr 513's i think. i traded a set of konigs plus 300 bucks for the xxr's plus tires. im pretty happy with the deal, and plan to keep them for my next project, which will hopefully be a wagon.

    nice wagon. at first i was thinking that it was way to clean to be from Toronto, but then I seen that you got it from Kansas lol. i am definetly interested, but want to wait till i sell my crx project before i buy a wagon. i have a guy who is interested in the crx project, so hopefully it sells sooner than later. if this is still around then i will definetly be talking with you about it :D
