Default I'm back!!!

Hello everyone,

I want to apologize for my absence the past couple months. As some of you know I bought that teal eg coupe a while back and to tell you the truth I hated it. For one, I am sick of having a coupe. Two, I was rushed into buying it since I needed a car for work and school. The car had been in an accident or two with previous owners. And finally, all around it just felt like it was beat up. I currently still own it but I have been patiently waiting for over three months for something stock and clean. I saved my money and looked into eg hatches and del sol's mostly. I test drove multiple cars and all of them were not in good conditon or the owners wanted too much money. Every car on craigslist where I live is posted for on average $1500 more than the value of the car. It's like everyone thinks every penny they put into the car adds to the value. I would find stock del sol's and hatches for over $4k! It took over three months and I finally got something. I'm super excited and can't wait to start a build thread. I plan on sticking around now that I have something so clean and unabused. Today I bought a 1993 Del Sol S. It's got only 100k original miles! Awesome paint and next to perfect condition in all categories. Completely stock just like I wanted. I have a ton of plans for it already that I will throw onto my build thread. Let me know what you guys think and feel free to ask questions. Sorry for the blurry pics, I don't know what was up with my phone. I will get better ones tomorrow.

Eh not too much of it. I really want to forget that car and pretty much anything that comes with it. I absolutely loathe it. So maybe my sway bar setup. Not the blox lca's because the bushing are pretty much trash. Thats probably about it. If it really doesn't sell soon I'll put the suspension back to stock and make use of the coilovers. Save me some money so I can buy some good shocks.
