Default '93 del Sol simple build [slowwww]

sup guys, heres my sol, its a '93 S, with 160k miles. i got it in april and its been sitting in storage till now, i recently started working on stuff and buying a few parts. the build is gonna be pretty slow, im 14, and i cant save money at all , aha. im in to the 'stanced' scene or whatever you wanna call it, so i will be heading in that direction. here are some pics.

that car is definetly gonna need alotta work.... i suggest the next thing you do, is either buy some new roof seals for the targa top so it doesn't leak inside, or see if you can find some good condition used ones from someone on these forums.

other then that take your time with your build, and and by the way you said you like the "stance" scene, keep in mind any wheel OVER 16 inches will look very funny on the that car.

Wow, a lot of work on this car. IMO, before buying anything as wheels or other, look FIRST on the paint job. After you get a clean car, you can start with the mods

Looking good. What are your plans for this build?
Check out some integra gsr rims for it, they look baller on a sol.
I know where your coming from being 14 and not being able to save, I'm in the same boat lol
Like they said, go for the paint first, then the other stuff.
Auto or stick?
