White Vert Project
Hey guys well I decided to create a build thread to share the progress with my car. Well let me start off by my name is Kevin, im 17, and this is my first car. I got it last summer and been slowly adding stuff to it. Bought the car for 950$ at this auction place, got pretty lucky lol. Only problem it was salvage due to vandalism to the top.
First got it. http://i46.tinypic.com/3313r47.jpg Gutted the back. http://i49.tinypic.com/2rxfhnm.jpg http://i45.tinypic.com/2s64wld.jpg http://i49.tinypic.com/mmvdk0.jpg Replacing the top. http://i46.tinypic.com/a3nkuc.jpg http://i50.tinypic.com/2iabrt0.jpg http://i47.tinypic.com/20kpyxc.jpg KYB AGX on custom sleeves/spring. Ghetto coils lol http://i46.tinypic.com/34fi0ck.jpg http://i47.tinypic.com/otqgd0.jpg http://i48.tinypic.com/bimjar.jpg Cat made a huge difference with passing smog. http://i50.tinypic.com/293ujiq.jpg |
Pulled the engine to replace coolant seals but found out i had a chipped iron =/
http://i50.tinypic.com/mu3bs.jpg Painted the bay primer with acouple coats of clear for that battleship grey look. http://i48.tinypic.com/2n8ap1d.jpg http://i45.tinypic.com/352rqk7.jpg Heres some pictures on how she sits 17x9, 17x10 Mustang reps. http://i47.tinypic.com/2125vrs.jpg http://i46.tinypic.com/148ez60.jpg http://i48.tinypic.com/2zthztl.jpg Heres a small teaser video [youtube]U4SSn5Licwk[/youtube] |
pretty nice vert man....
|
Thanks! Your build is pretty interesting too
|
What spring rate are your coils? I know when i had AGX's with coilovers the shocks adjustment became useless with my stiff springs.
|
I like the primer and cleared engine bay. :)
|
@pontiackid Right now Im riding on 500 and 350lb in the rear, could probably do 300.
@tuscanidream Thanks bro! Really debated on this or a clean white haha |
I just bought one of those
Hey sweet car. I just bought a 1990 vert that is completely cherry. But the old owner said he thinks the engine coolant seals are shot. I haven't played with it yet. Hopefully today I can get to it.
|
@superjeff Are you losing alot of coolant?
|
aye so I watched your video finally ahahha...what program did you use?
|
My bro used Sony Vegas pro 10
|
hey man i was wondering were did you buy the camber plate and sleeves from? i have a ground control set up which is good but yours look like they can get a lot lower then mine.
|
@slowgxl I bought them both off ebay. The rear suspension, i used another sleeve as a spacer so dont be fooled that it goes all the way down lol
|
Where did you buy your new top?
|
I know this is gonna be an awesome build based solely on the music from your video. Respect. Good luck with the build. Verts are killer. :nod::nod::nod:
|
@spiff-d I got it from ebay, it has like a 5 year warranty on it.
@JDP6693 Why you say that? And Thanks bro haha |
Hahah just the feeling I get from it. One of my favorite songs. Good taste.
|
Plus, being a vert owner myself, all other vert builds are just awesome.
|
Haha thanks you should create a build for your vert
|
Haha I would if there was anything worth talking about. It's my dd and it's getting all the tlc it needs, but it's nowhere near the scale of yours or the other builds on here. It's nothing special. I'll probably post some pics of it on my page though just so I have them.
|
Alright sounds good. Mines not even crazy compared to what other people are doing lol
|
Yeah it seems like everyone is doing crazier and crazier builds, but over a longer period of time. I'm excited to see where yours goes, as well as a few others I'm watching intently haha
|
those wheels look really damn good... any specs on them?
|
That thing is in great shape and you got such a good deal on it!
|

@Kaosaur I know haha i got pretty lucky on it |
