I know who owns that Civic. He bought it a few days ago.

Blaine, you know him too.
Lol, I know the previous owner. What a tool.

The previous owner or the new owner? If you mean the new owner, then yeah pretty much.
The picture he has on facebook has some one mention if he bought it from Otte, but he said he got it from some guy named Rudy.
Rudy is Barak's dad, and a fucking awesome guy. Otte is their last name. Canadians. lol
He's about 3 feet tall and has spent more time on X Box than he has actually tuning a car.
Picked up a "busted" (he said it MIGHT have a blown piston ring from boosting) miata engine with a stand, 5 oil filters, a Nippon fuel filter, and various other little parts for $100 today.
And then proceeded to have the engine twirl upside down on the stand and put 2 dents in my rear quarter panel.
Missing bolt fail.
Got some beers and soda at the store, so it'll be okay. Gonna be working on it tonight and tomorrow, trying to get it running this weekend.
Not as much as I thought I would. Don't get me wrong, I loved it. It was pretty damn fun to drive.
Definitely coming out well on this deal.
$1200 for a 95 miata.
$100 for a spare engine for miscellaneous parts (brackets and timing covers)
$100 for racing seats
$250 for the roll bar I'm picking up from Ripley when he gets back from his trip
$150 for fluids and gaskets (shifter turret gaskets were $55...)
$175 for an ebay top.
Then of course spent money on soda, pizza, and beer.

Well, it's officially rust free now.
Took all the areas with surface rust down to bare metal (most of it was actually the porous paint being dyed).
Primered all the parts I'd sanded, and put the carpet back in after I ripped out the insulation padding.
Still got some small things to put together in the engine bay, but the injectors, fuel rail, timing covers, pulleys, water neck and valve cover are all installed.
Got to get some new vacuum hoses and connect the electronics to finish it up.
Thx... Maybe see u this week?
Friday is my first day of college.
I should be going to get a hitch for my truck after school.
