Default My introduction...

So I recently found out about this site from a guy on SolSociety. I want to first start off by saying that this is by far the best Honda forum out there on the web. I've been browsing the threads on here for quite some time...and I thought I'd finally introduce myself.

My name is Brandt of course(sounds like "Brant"), and I own a Samba Green '93 Honda Del Sol SI. I bought it almost two years ago. I started working on it the minute I brought her home...and it's been an ongoing affair ever since the purchase. I bought the sol with alot of mods done to it...it had a white painted interior...ghetto dvd player hookup...Jackson Racing Exhaust, Holley 4-2-1 Header, Spintech Muffler w/o resonator, p.o.s. ebay coils with p.o.s. Tokico gas shocks, aftermarket two-peice headlights, altezza tails color matched samba. This car was seriously riced-out..and still has along way to go to de-rice...but I've made alot of progress already..I've repainted the interior to black...bought custom Del Sol mats from dstuning.com, replaced the center console(one before was all hacked to ****), among other little things..

here are some pics..




I'm about to start doing major resoration on this to de-rice it...I'll be posting a thread on here to inform everyone of my progress...

enjoi!

you consider that work? if only every project car could look as clean as that one does, minus the tails, wheels and headlights...very nice car man.

Thanks for all the comments. I do actually have a bit of work ahead of me...there are some minor imperfections...i.e. few very small dents and scratches..the infamous wheel well rust..but very minor. I keep her very clean at all times! I'm very strict about what I use and everything to keep her looking fresh.

So here are some more pics...tails and such..
