Default z6htch's del slo build #2 slowwww build :D

Hello some of you may know my teal eg with the purple slips. Its been for sale on here for quite a while now but I finally traded it yesterday for this Del sol and $400 cash. I also kept my wheels and lug nuts :p but anywho here is some details on the slo.

1993 Del Sol Si. I am the third owner and the car even had original mats, window sticker, spare and valet keys and manual! I was amazed lol. It also is all stock besides for exhaust, suspension and intake. A/c, power steering and cruise untouched! It has literally the cleanest bay and interior I've ever seen in my life. Nobody has messed with either. Will def get pics of both tomorrow.

The car isn't perfect though, it needs 2 fenders and a hood(solved this part today) and I'll most likely respray the whole car. I picked up my first upgrade today, a cf hood brand new for $250. I thought it was a deal and couldn't pass it up. This will be a slow build but keep your eyes out for updates.

Let me know what you think of these first few pics. Enjoy

Thanks man. It'll be slow b/c I'm broke but the mods that I'm doing will be tasteful. Leaving the bay untouched besides for a header possibly.

Damn... Doesnt look too bad, but your hatch was clean! Any rust? How many miles?

Hopefully I will be in a sol soon... The red coupe finally sold on Friday too! I'm looking for a black one though!

GL on the build. I cant wait to see this thing start coming along. What suspension is on it?

It has 176k. Everything is original and untouched besides suspension, intake, and exhaust. The engine bay is literally the cleanest one I've ever seen, it looks like it came off the show room floor and popped the hood Every bolt, clip, and wire is there and has a/c, power steering and cruise!

And glad the coupe sold bro, its been on here awhile lol. The Sol has no rust and I'm not touching the bay except for maybe a header. Going to throw some jdm **** on this bitch that nobody else around here has, just like I did with my hatch I'm aiming to have the cleanest oem/jdm Sol around Cincy lol.

P.s. Its dropped on brand new Sensatrac struts and omni power coilovers. (previous owner did this last week)

But seriously, not many people around here have nice cars... it will be interesting to see this one as it starts coming along... it looks like you have a nice platform to begin with!

Lol we will have to have a shoot for sure when you get yours. And there are very few nice cars around here. The ones that are nice are owned by shops. I'll keep this thing updated or at least try to. I wrinkle coated my valve cover and heat shield yesterday, will post pics up of that today.
