Default EXCLUSIVE! Spy Shots Project "Windchaser"

Somebody...a member of this site, took this spy shot of my car. I thought I would share it. The car is 90-95% complete. Expect to see it cruising the streets of Tampa soon!

WOW! That cars looks really tight! I know its your project and all but you wouldn't happen to be willing to sell minus the engine would you? I've been looking for a nice del Sol to drop maybe a turbo GSR engine in...but haven't found one that good yet......how much did the paint job cost and who did it? Looks VERY nice!!

Answer to some questions...
No, it currently is NOT for sale...not yet at least. Not sure if I even will, It's starting to look too good.
I'm not worried about smudges...it hasn't wet sanded and buffed yet. It goes back into the body shop next week.
Calipers ARE yellow, I know. So were the windshield wipers. The previous owner HAND-PAINTED them. They will be corrected prior to me taking the car out on the streets.

Cost? The car was black, and had been in an accident when I bought it (but has a clean title). It has a 94 Civic Front end (and no, it doesn't just bolt on). Complete conversion, paint, and color change...I'd say I've got about $4k in it, but by the looks, It's well worth it. The car has no wing (thank god), and no stickers. I like my cars clean. The motor is B16 and the interior is stock.
