civic ef

got a 88 ef that's not running right now, it was before i left but when i got back tried starting it up but it was dead so i bought a new battery but it's not cranking up it gets power and everything jus don't know what's wrong with it at this time. it's an automatic with 153xxx miles on it, got rust on the quarter panels. would like to trade for a stick shift crx or another civic or sell for 600. I got some ls seats, rims and the brand new battery. 1000 for everything
