Ok well i havn't really spoken to too many people on here lately or ever lol! I bought Dijm8's old VK executive for $2200, which i then got ripped and found it had chassis damage. Ripped the deck out and sold the car for $1000 to a friend of a friend, which ended up defected and out of rego. Last i got told he sold it for $150 to the wreckers :bang::bang::bang::bang::bang:!!!!!!:cry: Life goes on. So i bought a WHITE S1? VP Executive 1992 for $1400 off a mate!

When i bought the car it had a few problems from neglect.
Ripped back seat
Poor paint
Obviously done a few burnouts
Exhaust which fell off!
Chopped springs
Metal on Metal on the back brakes! lol

I bought the car and firstly as all do, i gave it a good clean. keeping it still stock as, i replaced the exhaust for $250 with a redback 2.5" and oval tip and new rubbers.

I put a massive soundsystem on laybuy with a ZYLUX pager alarm retailed at $1000 which i got for $350. The soundsystem in the end cost me $2500 for a custom boot install.

PRIOR to me reaching the goal of my soundsystem, i span out at the bottom of the freeway in adelaide which caused all four tyres to 'POP' and i hit the kurb. Resulting in minor body damage but i was in a **** situation. Called my mate out and got him to come put 4 tyres on my car for $100 at 4AM in the morning. Over the next week i went to a suspension crash repair shop and got my car overlooked for any damage. Seems that there was no serious damage so i was very lucky the car only came out with a scratch on the left hand side at the bottom.

I replaced one of the doors as the old one had a dent. Its an off white because it came off a VN.

My plans!

Replace the door i already replaced with a VP white door to save money because i'd have to respray it.
Fix the roof lining as i did a diy job, but still needs some touching up
RIMS!, get them tomorrow.. a set of CALAIS internationals. Going to get them eventually whitewalled.
Replace left hand rear tailight as the reverse light is cracked :bang:
Maybe TINT the rear lights
TINT the car :D
SS Kit - Front bumper has a few paint scrapes from previous owner
Fully Lowered on Ultras and New shocks to firm the ride.
High flow cat
Extractors

Eventually Dump a 5L engine into it and supercharge it. :D:D


The specs on my boot install are.
soundstream splits in the front
kenwood 6x9's in back
2x 15inch soundstream SPL comp subs not sure how much ohm
sounstream capacitor
cadence 4channel 400W (Orange) AMP for speakers
Cadence AMP (dont know much about it. Its the EX Amp from auto salon 2007 in the Cadence AMBO) pretty hightec **** :) cables for anything can go into it.
and a NESA NSD-360 DVD Deck.

i'll post some more proper pics when i get em. thanks guys. Just polished her in these.:wax:

Nah its a VP boot garnish, just looks dark because of bad quality pictures. The front driver door too looks a different colour white, but its actually the passenger left hand side which is the different colour!, i'll post pics up with the internationals on tomorrow! because im picking it up before work, and it'll be too late to put em on when i get home. Thanks for comments guys.
