View Full Version : Aristo two door vert project NEW PIX!!!!
I got a few Pm'S wanting more pix of my aristo convert. Its not finnished yet but it should look like the PS in the pix. There is a ton of time consuming little stuff and the critical enginering to it. So here is the full set of pix from start to where Im at on it now.
FIrst I started with a $200 n/a aristo. The only body problems was the front bumper and the water pump.

your thinking of the white one. The yellow one with Skipper Aero is not fitted with the C's 5.0 liter stroker kit, cams, or C's supercharger. (the white one is though...)

I believe a custom drive shaft is the only thing needed for this project, aside from shortening wires and pipes.
I believe a custom drive shaft is the only thing needed for this project, aside from shortening wires and pipes.
Corectomundo
I took the carrier berring out of the drive shaft and made it a one piece. Shortened the fuel and brake lines with new flair ends and just coiled the two harnesses in the back, I didnt bother cutting and splicing them.
Im not affraid to cut anything up. After this I have an order for a mark X that I will move the B pillar back 4 inches. After that I have a new Mitsubishi I that Im going to chop and two door too.
WOWWW i've seen a lot of chopped top car in Indonesia.. but all of them were rice! dis is going to be interesting.. keep us updated ok??/ 8)

The Burgandy Red one was sold to Universal and they repainted it orange. It was the one that Sam actually drove.
For all the sleepless bullshit I went threw on them two, that one I didnt get to drive or even hear the engine. The blue one was nice but then we did it the first three days. After 6 days of no sleep we kind of lost intrest in them cars.

You're sick bro...just sick (in a good way). ;)
Well all the metal fab is done. I just got the audio in and will start forming the rear for it. 4X 12" and 2 500 watt mono blocks, a 4 chanal and two sets of speekers. Its time for the itchy scratchy show.

Looks badass so far...looks like you will have a cloth top the way the rear deck looks. My VIP project will also be a 'vert, no serious fab involved like yours, but you can't beat the look of a classy drop. ;)

Coming along nicely. Kudos for taking on a project like this! I always thought the first-gen GS (147) was the prettiest Aristo ever made.
I wonder how a first-gen 'vert would look like with the stock wheelbase, as a four-seater, only with longer 'coupe like' doors.
Can't wait to see the finshed product.

You know I wanna do it Ray. But I can do it after I get it done to. I have to see how much of my head sticks out. The glass guy down the road said he could cut and buff it if I do do it.
As for a roof NOPE, Nadda, Nevaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. This one is all vert I will be displaying the audio up in the back.
I will be doing a Mark X after this one and I will leave the wheel base alone. Ill be moving the B pillar back 4 inches and lengthening the doors. SO the rear seet can still be used.

Yeah, I dont think half of them would even understand what VIP is. I came from CL, but after seeing LexAristo's car, I did my research, half the noobs over there dont know whats goin on and just cry all the time...sheesh.
Your doing a great job though, this will defenitly be something to see.

the fact its a 'lexus' and its SO luxury! hahah, thats why they would cry. ask robert to show most of the CL cars...they are almost all stock, or if they have rims and stuff, they are like ebay style, 18x8.5 with a +55 offset, NO spacers ahaha

:-\ I'd have to disagree....if you just weld the rears and leave it the same length, not only do you get a floppier chassis but it ends up looking like a sedan with the roof cut off and the doors welded, not a convertible.
SoCalSC4
05-23-2006, 08:54 AM
I did a cheesy job in Paint with my brother's 147. I made the doors too long,
but due to the long overhangs this car has, I like the overall proportions
with the stock wheelbase.

are you making an assumption that roadsters with shorter wheel bases lack structural integrity? I know you aren't but if the frame is seamed together again with strong, smooth welds there shouldn't be much to worry about. Perhaps subframe connectors?

thumper
05-29-2006, 10:30 AM
yes i was referring more to the cutting than the shorter wheelbase.
i haven't read everything in this thread (slow connection+pictures=bad)... is this car going to remain a convertible, or will there be a roof grafted back onto it again?
and the doors... are they frameless windows now?
DAMN Gone for a week and missed all the fun. If some one has it pm it to me please.
AGAIN there is no top for this car. Its a fulltime convert. If you want to know how I reinforced the body call WCC and see if they will give you an answer. Posting pix is enough for some one to figure it out with out giving up the secret.

Haha, it's funny that you couldn't wait to judge me on something trivial and unimportant. I'm anxious for Lorin to come back on here if he can't find a computer out in the desert, he's too busy living in a palace and enjoying cars none of us will ever own.

Man I go smoke a little weed with bin laden and look what happens. YES I am in the desert Im in Saudi playing with the princes and the binladens. its been a real treet here. I have been able to drive over 2 million in cars. I am about to purchase a ferrari for resale in japan as well.
Ill probobly be here a few more weeks as I am building the first drift car in saudi. We will debu the car at the opening of saudis first race track.
by the way the arib drift is all that and more when you see it in person.

are you being sarcastic? ???
not at all you know how many bin ladens there are here. I actuly became good friends with ULBs nephew mohamed. you also have to understand ULB is just one of 20 or 30 kids as his dad had many wives. I have also been to one of their beach houses for a party and yes I smoked some nice hash with a few binladens there.
By the way I might get to drive a marceleno tonight althow the 355 was pretty sweet. I also got to use a 400hp m3 for a few days. n/a with a carbon intake 6spd and all the other shit. The car just fucking drove sweet and was a breeze to drift.
Oh I saw a left hand drive s15 last week it was built in Dubuai and you cant tell its a hand made conversion.

haha, I'm so confused
That's actually their family name...literally. That family is huge and they aren't all corrupt people. I'm guessing he meant Murcielago..haha, Lorin and his typing...whch also explains Usama Bin Laden UBL. Haha, you're not that confused, Lorin just doesn't care when he types. AWe just get used to it and decipher. HI LORIN!!

Last I heard of Bin Laurin, he just posted some pics of the 350z he's been building on Ziptied, so he might make it over here to update on this car... but I think it's probably still back in Japan, not out in the desert living it up like he is.

Love the middle east. I was in Dubai this summer for a few weeks. I have never been to Saudi but have been to Abu Dhabi, and Bahrain. I love the cars these guys have. I actually work with buying cars and shipping them to Dubai. So where in Saudi are you? Did you pick up any Arabic? The BL family is cool, they completely oppose what Usama has been doing. Anyways, good luck in the desert and enjoy it man. Have fun during Ramadhan its a different place their.

It's funny you mention that. He was just partying with a few of them this past weekend. He got a ride in a veyron and said it's everything it's cracked up to be. He currently drives a Diablo, but is going to sell it..for what I have no idea. Cars just pop up with Lorin. I'm replying for him since it's rare that he comes on here.

Guys...he has a life besides this one car. He builds custom cars for guys with more money than we could ever fathom. This little project is the least of his worries, he has royalty to keep happy. I saw him last weekend in Japan, but he was only there for a short stint before returning to the sand box.

What? Where is the slander?? Do you understand the definition of slander? No? Here it is for you:
Slander is an untruthful oral (spoken) statement about a person that harms the person's reputation or standing in the community.
Maybe you meant to use another word? Calling the Middle East the Sand Box is like calling San Diego Sandog. It's a nickname...you put down the Middle East yourself by not capitalizing it..if you want to get technical. Got a problem with it..PM me. Otherwise, that was moronic, I served 2 tours there during Desert Storm and Desert Shield...

The car is prepped for paint sitting in fukushima as I have been here in saudi for the last year building dollar baller cars. I guess when I get back I might have time to paint it. But I did roll it for awhile before I headed here.
