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![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
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.![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
