Here's my '92 VP Executive. I bought it about 6 months ago in pretty good nick. It had 185 000 k's on the clock and was a perfect car to build on. My aim is to build a simple, tuff looking (and going) car, nothing flashy.
So far this is whats been done...
'92 VP Exec.
304ci
IRS, LSD
TH700 with wider bands + corvette servo
2.5" exhaust from cat back
KING Springs SL front, SSL rear
KYB Shocks
Ajustable camber kit
MOMO Race wheel
Alpine HU
Alpine 2 channel amp
Hertz front stage
VR/VS Speaker pods
Stage 2 cluster
Cruise control
Power windows
Power mirrors
Keyless entry
Next on this list is...
STAGE 1 - dropping the back down a little more, removing and smoothing lock and holes in bootlid (where spoiler was), de-badge, re-do interior, sound deadening front doors, tweeter pods in A-pillar, tint windows, extractors + exhaust. Aswell as detailing.
First pic was how it looked when i got it. The following 2 pics are the most recent.![]()

Looks and sounds like a keeper, show us some up-to-date pics.
Oi man, it's so good to have another IRS VP exec 5 litre on JCI was feeling lonely, Very rare car, one of about 10 or so I think
. It's the exact same setup as mine, correct me if I'm wrong but I'm guessing, factory FE2, factory electric antenna, factory power mirrors, factory cruise and factory rear spoiler. What's the build date on yours? 10-92 ?
Mack - Thanks mate. I'll keep the photo's coming.
Greenfoam - good to hear man. Mine came with everything except factory FE2. The build date was Nov 92.
Wagon_Wheel - Thanks but its still not as shmick as I'd like it to be.
with 'stractors and zorst it should be quite the little package indeed! keep us updated!

mate i likee this car looks nice and simple! like the colour to..
hows it go?? guessing should satisfy enough??
WRX884 - I'll give ebay a go.
VR304 - Thanks man. Thats why i love the VP's. I think they have classic muscle car design. Big, V8, straight rear wheel arch etc. Thats what makes a tough looking car imo, simple classic lines, not body kits etc. She rides beautifully too and gets better and better whith each mod.
just another pic for u guys. the start of the amp facia. im going to cut out a square and then perspex it. nothing too over the top, just nice and neat...
give me ur opinions so far.....
A few more things done to the car in the last week. Got the windows re-tinted darker and started on my new CAI. A bit of painting has been done also. Ive painted my tank silver and repainted the handles, washer bottle aswell as tinted the tailights and started on the interior. I'll get some new pics and post them up soon.
