If that car was in my driveway I would have it on the road for cheap, there is no frame dammage simply because a civic has no frame. If you have seen pics of my wrecked 98 sedan you would know that it was/is ALOT worse than that and I came very close to fixing it.

Is the rear crossmemeber removable?

I had similar problem with the front end of an accord, but replaced the front crossmember and was good to go.

If it does not bolt out the only solution is to cut it out, and cut one from a donor car and weld it back in..

I have not been under the car yet to see if it does bolt in, Any pictures of the under car rear suspension would be helpful

One thing you will need to learn about honda's and civic's is that everything bolts on. There is no metal under the car. I'm tellin ya if you plan to junk that car and live anywhere near me I'll pick it up from ya

Sounds like you plan on fixing it up. I have to admit Marty's $700-$800 sounds very hopeful to get it back in it's previous condition. Best of luck to you. The salvage yards will be your friend.
