This is a story of my first car and our adventures. I bought the car 5 days after my 16th birthday. It was and still is a project, it had no working radio, factory everything, torn seats, no a/c (in Texas in July 😫 among many other issues. I paid $700 for it and it was mine. Since then I have bought for it, lowering springs, a double din radio, wheels, racing seats, harnesses, sub, speakers, amps, headlights and many other small things in 7 ish months, I'm in high school and work a job making minimum wage and all my money goes to this car. For those wondering my friends have and what this car parks next to daily are: preludes, a sweet Impreza, is350, trans am, lancers, tc's and a few trucks. She's in good company, somehow she's the oldest, heaviest but the fastest! I love her to death and can't wait to update this build. Pictures aren't in order but you context clues can tell you things. I couldn't have done any of this without my father he's been there with me for everything I've done to this car. Thanks pops! If you have any questions just ask!

Welcome to CL, and SC400slide said it best "700" dollars-you can't beat it! Props for working, and saving and buying your car with your saved duckets! Keep this up, I see a build thread coming in the near future? Just remember too much, too soon, means a clean SC that you can't afford to drive? In the meantime, keep working hard in school, and enjoy that SC man!
for $700 that leaves you with a lot of room for goodie parts you've def come to the right place to learn a thing or two for these cars. High school you say? keep modding the car youll be surprised on how much youve put into it and make it your own ! good luck !! keep it up!
im def diggin the seat delete, im goin to have to do the same thing so i can move my air tank and compressor for my air susp in the back lol
