Picked up my del sol!!!
Right now shes like taking home a girl whos bald with missing teeth. But there is potential!!!
Expect a 180 transformation in the next two months!
So the good
-Underbody is mint! I was shocked!
-Interior in excellent shape for its age
-Motor D15B7 is in awesome running shape. However I want to get rid of this with the tranny ($100 for those interested)
-Mechanic said all that was needed was a new alternator and a windshield to get safety
The bad.
As you can see theres alot of rust. Probably 60 hours worth. Haven't pulled the carpet and its a bit of a hidden surprise waiting for me.
Got this 1993 Honda Del Sol S 280k for $500.

Progress so far...
Well learning about most of the bad (haven't taken out carpet in cabin yet).
I had already began cutting the metal on the passenger side. I will begin the driver's once I finish and figure out how to leak out the gas tank.
I really need to get advice on how to remove the bottom panels on the bottom of each side. Some of the plastic screws are damaged and can't use a driver to thread them out!
FYI don't attempt to work near sparks in boxer-shorts. A ****ing hot ash hit my sack. I swear I jumped 10 feet.
