Default my low budget del sol time line LOTS OF PICS

okay so i want to start out by saying i have had 11 del sols and i have had this one the longest out of the 48 cars i have owned. i buy and sell cars to make money as a side job but this one is different than the others i have had, i plan on keeping this one for a very long time.

day one. i saw this car for sale on here and saw it on a local site. its a one owner 1997 del sol si. it was listed. there were alot of ppl that wanted this car, it was a cannon ball run from cincinnati ohio to cleveland ohio. I GOT there FIRST! No rust and every option there was on a 97 si even fatory leather seats. the down side is that its still a auto however i would rather swap it than change out the quarter pannels. del sols and hondas in general rot out bad here in ohio.




I was going to leave this car stock however i couldn't so i dropped it on tein springs




then i finaly put some fogs on it.


painted the oem wheels and auto x it for fun lol



THEN some lady hit me on the highway i was pissed


it snowed like hell . . .


got a insurance check and saved some and invested a little in the sol.
got a front lip hx wheels and wainting on head lights


Bought a cf gas door. Got it in trade so nothing invested.


Well my lights came in!!!!!


3 days later I got hit by a old guy in the highway! ! ! ! ! ! !

Got some recaros cheap


And now. . . I bought some slips and cleaned it up a little bit.










That’s it for now thanks for looking lmk what you think!

both delsols are hella clean, i think the newer front ends like yours are cleaner, and all you have to do is to a auto to manual conversion!
