Fixing My Del Sol (Theft Recovery)
I've begun fixing up my 1995 Del Sol, after it was stolen (bastards). They took the computer, seats, and door glasses. They also destroyed the colunm and broke a bunch of misc interior trim.
When I got it the interior was full of water due to rain and not having windows. The first order of buisness was to gut the interior and clean up the water and very dirty floor board.



An Example of how dirty the floor was.


Being a Minnesota car there is some rust, luckily I'm handy with a welder though.

I picked up a computer from a local guy, it is a chipped setup with a data logging port and the works, price wasnt' too bad and the car runs just like it used to.

Peicing this car together is a fun project. I'm goign to do a full tune up before I drive it too. I will also replace the timing belt as it is original at 153k. All thsi work is greatly aided by my FSM.

I'm waiting on seats, and a drivers door glass right now, parts just aren't easy to find around here.
