Default Grassroots Motorsports wants to photograph your del Sol

We need to photograph a del Sol for an upcoming article, and we can use some help in finding a car. Bonus points for the following:

- Close to our home base of Ormond Beach, Fla.

- A nice, clean car.

- Mild mods like wheels and tires are okay, but no crazy body kits.

- DOHC VTEC.

- Any color but black (tough to shoot).

- An owner who's not a dork.

If this sounds like you, let me know.

The Civic is doing well, and you can see it here: http://www.grassrootsmotorspor....html

And there is some SOHC love. I'm just saying a DOHC would work better for what I have planned, but if someone in the area has a cool single-cam, let me know. I don't expect to get everything that's on my wishlist.

lol he asks for a non-black, DOHC, mild-modded Sol and you show him that?

Good luck on your search David, it'll be great to see a Sol in GRM

And, for sentimental value, here's my old car, RIP, stolen March '04:

Circa May 2002

You must not have read what he wrote either, cause he said no insane body kits, and i don't know wtf you call that thing hangin off the front of your car, but looks body kit enough to me.....

David, I just linked your post to a few Del Sol sites (http://www.teamsolcal.com/forum http://www.teamdelsol.com & http://www.crxownersclub.com) in hopes that you find a Del Sol meeting your requirements. Hopefully you find one soon, really interested to see what you will be writing up. Good luck
