Default i got a civic front clip for free.......now what?

hey my cousin just gave me a vtec d series engine from his civic eg hatch(emmaculate condition) after he did a b series swap. he gave me a real sweet deal tho basically a front clip without the actual body everything included (ecu, complete wiring harness, distributor, a/c, tranny, axles, shift linkages/console, alternator, radiator eevrything) not really a honda guy but i'll throw about a few hundred bucks on a shell. any ideas honda guys where i can get a shell 92 and up for about 500 and also what i can do with what i got?????
