Currently I have over a dozen vehicles but this one is the most dear to me, so this will be the only one I post. It was my younger brother's car he bought with his own money in high school. He kept it at my place (but was the only one that didn't fit in the car barn for the winter) while he was in the military until he got back, but he was KIA a few weeks ago, so his car was turned over to me. He was going to work on it with me when he got out but that's obviously impossible now.
So I'm going to take over the project and build it according to his ideas as a tribute to him. He knew more wrenching that I did so it will be a great learning experience for me as well. He wanted to make this car have 400HP so that's what the goal is. Stock HP is a mere 92.
Two weeks ago, the snow completely covered the car, as in taller than the car itself. Now that it's fast melting I snapped a quick pair of pics of it before the blizzard comes next week. :evil:
I'm sure Elvine knows what car it is based on his pics, but for those that don't know it's a 1995 Honda Civic Del Sol convertible. Hard top goes in the truck bracket. This was Honda's answer to the Mazda Miata and is basically the Civic CRX (have one of those too) made into a convertible.
Here was a few days ago when the snow started to melt.
Here it sits today.
