  • The 91 L.

    Build thread time!!! ill start off by saying i picked this bad boy up for 500 after going to purchase a different vehicle at a friends house!!! nuff said!! jk, as soon as i drove it i knew it was mine! so after adding the escort console and a short throw i got mod fever and just couldnt stop. picked up an aspire for some spappage, at 375 i easily made money doing this swap!!!! swapped the front seats for my old broken down festy units to help the back out a little too. so after lifting the car with the aspire suspension i decided it had to have bigger wheels! after some 15's i thought i was done...... NO SIR!!! so now it was BP time,fun right?? not immediately for me see pic below.

    (OUCCCHHHH sounded like a gun went off at my feet-my fault i guess)
    so luckily, charlie1717 hooked me up with a cable F and it was time to go to work again!!!here she is after the the big bang

    and finally!!!!!! its been on the road for a couple days now and im working out a few little issues but i couldnt be happier!!!! i dont think ive ever posted any pics of my car so ill throw some up. (excuse the bumper i love to use it for its intented purpous ))
    Engine bay-what do you guys think? tried to make it look factory. battery will be reloacted soon!!!

        I was thinking That maybe if I had the bolts in it i wouldn't have broken it but it's cool. I guess it forced me to upgrade sooner than later.

            If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

                      go down to your local tractor supply or orschlens and get some tractor paint and get a harbor freight paint gun. Its cheap and will look a lot better than spray paint, and hold up better. Their is also a lot more colors than most people think, most places will actually custom mix some for you too.

                          If you have any question feel free to ask me, I'm certified in auto body repair. Prep isn't that bad all you need is a little patience and not afraid to do a little work.
