That wont be a Daily Drivable Sol. However if you want a Go Cart you cant do much better then that. The body will be super stiff, it will be sick.

My Delsol is Rocking the the Camber Kits and struts off of my old 99 EK Hatch.

EDIT: Looking at his post he says he has more parts as well, See about getting the front clip as you can put it back together and have a road legal delsol agian.

Not sure on florida law, however if you put a rad support back on as well as the rest of the front clip, headlights, hood, fenders, blinkers, etc. then it would be legal up here. Make sure to get a title with the sol if you get it. He said he had the oem delsol parts so I would grab those from him and put it back together. All Sol's not having a sol front clip look like they have been wrecked and put back together. Which is probably why 99% of them where done.

There is a lot of missing parts on that shell.
You will need to source Del Sol front end, roof, truck deck, doors. That will not be cheap.
I don't know what a full cage is going for, but it will cost a bunch to get that running on the track, let alone on the street.

you never know if he messed up the cage or half assed it
nd that seems a lil to pricey for a shell with nothing on it but a cage :eh:

i wouldnt get that. sounds like too much work to make it road legal.

1 piece front ends are legal, ( i wouldnt do a 1 piece front end) however you just gotta make sure you have head lights, turn signals and what ever else you need to make it legal.
