thought id say hello, here's some pics of one of my many verts

[premo-s12]

ive been a sil freak for about 10+ yrs now. im really more of an s12 fan to be honest, maybe cuzz ive had them since my teen years, but i dunno. but ive had 3 verts now. all 92's. one red, one white and my daily driver, the black one. i love them, great cars. i dont really spord drive them as i save sport driving for my SE s12 but i whip it around from time to time. at any rate, ive been lingering around the forum for a few years now and thought id post up some pics. i live in san diego, ocean beach to be precise. i just bought a new top for the car this weekend so i intend to go thru and re-do the inside. only work ive down is a cai, coupe front seat swap (WAY better), dropped it and thru on some 18's wrapped in yoko parada spec2, some xenon ebay lights, a gauge pod for oil pressure n such and an electric supercharger. say what you will, but it cost me 5 bucks from a friend and does the trick haha like i said, its my daily so i dont want to rev and pop the thing, i have an s12 w/a swapped small block ford 302 (its going thru extensive re-working right now htough) so if i want to lay down rubber i do it in that. anyways, here's some pics. oh, i bought a new fender just this weekend to replace the dented passenger side fenderhttp://www.club-s12.org/forums...3&hl=

oh, i know its sitting a bit funky in some of the pics but its just where i parked. it rides great and sits normal

[BOOMSHAKALAKA]

Welcome! I saw your thread on Club-S12 just a few weeks ago...I was lurking haha.

Anyways nice vert.

[premo-s12]

haha thx. ive been around since before that forum started. i used to run the OLD one on yahoo eons ago and me and a few friends founded club-s12 due to it sucking balls. good times lol

[Loki]

Looks real nice. Reminds me of Greg's. How much did the wheels cost you?

[BOOMSHAKALAKA]

haha thx. ive been around since before that forum started. i used to run the OLD one on yahoo eons ago and me and a few friends founded club-s12 due to it sucking balls. good times lol

That's cool. I was on there because my interest in S12s got re-ignited for some reason...just out of nowhere haha. There aren't too many S12 owners on here so I was knew there had to be one devoted to them specifically. I've been looking into getting one myself but they're so hard to find around here. I really like both the notch and hatch but I'm leaning a little more towards finding a notch because they seem to be a little rarer.

BTW do you have any pics of your S12? I don't remember seeing any of it on there. And what future plans are in store for the vert?

[DirftKing102]

nice black 240 vert! Where did you get the Black Rims? I want a set and would love to know where you got them!

[premo-s12]

thx for the warm welcome guys

here's my (one of a few) s12 http://www.club-s12.org/forums...15344 its in the garage under te knife right now though. but yea, s12's are getting scarce. I jump on em when I find em. I think I've had 8 now lol

plans for the vert? none really, just gonna leave itmostly stock. I MIGHT buy a turbo kit for it later but I doubt it. I like havin a quite convertible as a daily as far as the wheels go, I got them for *gasp* 500 bucks w/new yokohama parada spec2's installed. god I love craigslist! the guy I got them from said they're privat's but who knows *shrug* theres another pic on my myspace page that has a pic of my white one.

[Dr.Fate]

Brother I'm in PB san diego we should hang out! I'm just learning to do my own wrench work ( Funny I'm almost 30!) Hit me up! I jus read your post on the other fourm and I might want those rims and if your going to do a silvia front conversion I can help that, I did my own. What do want for those old rims you had on the drop top? F.Y.I. there an old man selling his s12 coupe in clairmont if you drive up balboa from garnett you well see it on the right before you hit genessee.

[premo-s12]

uh, I actually decided to keep both sets of rims. if I were to get rid of the car then I'd sell them as a package deal. you have a sil front converted convertible? or is it a coupe? cuzz I saw some slammed to **** sil convert coupe rolling around OB the other week. got a pic? I don't see a whole lot of s13's around SD. funny tho, I know why....they're all in mexico!! no joke, I was down in TJ getting drunk an goin to booby bars last weekend and must of saw a dozen S13's in the 4 hrs I was there. I'm guessing they're all stolen

[Dr.Fate]

Here she is brother. Trust me I don't like living this close to Mexico at all. I have allways said if my ride get stolen I will go down to Mexico and steal one back (Never stole a car , don't know how , but trust me , my car get's stolen I WILL go down to that third world Hell hole and steal one. MAN ON FIRE STYLE!)

[Dr.Fate]

P.S. brother got some Brick head lights if want to go silvia front end .

[premo-s12]

did I sell you a set of rear coupe seats a while back? that car looks damn familiar

[Glyph]

Sounding off. One more from San Diego. North Park at the moment. I'm scared ****less being this close to Mexico as well. I just recently spent three days installing a top-of-the-line alarm so can only pray that it would make a difference. Hopefully I'll see you guys around town. I saw a white one on the freeway today and a black one (beater) lives just a few blocks from me so there must be quite a few of us here in SD. Makes sense I guess. It's the perfect weather for 'em.

[premo-s12]

yea, there's quite a few rolling around SD. if the white one had a top and was driven by a women in her late 30's, early 40's w/a new top then thats my old one. i also sold a red one to a guy in clairmont that looks JUST like yours hence my post asking if your name is jordan in another thread. im sure ill see you around town, i cruise down the 8 to el cajon everyday for work

[S13_convert]

Again, I posted this one my intro thread, but would your SD guys like to get together? I live by 163 and Genesse. Going to SDSU right now. Hit me up on my email: [email protected].

[Dr.Fate]

Hell yea! I think that all us SD guys should get together and hang out. Back in the day me homeboys used to fix each other cars ( 8 guys one car= Lots of stuff done) and get drunk anybody down ? this weeekend?

[Dr.Fate]

did I sell you a set of rear coupe seats a while back? that car looks damn familiar

Nope I got the stock seats in her right now. I'm in the market for some of the convert. leather black or gray seats F/B if any body has them. P.S. Will convert. seats F/B bolt right up the coupes ?

[DeXteR]

just wanted to say welcome to the forum! thanks for sharing.

[Dr.Fate]

Damn after looking at all these convert. It's making me want to trade my coupe in for convert. Hmm..................

[DeXteR]

oh, by the way... i can't access any of your s12 pics. it says something about the account being suspended...

[premo-s12]

lol, typical of tim to forget to pay the bill at cs12...i keep offering help and he insists he can get it. f##k, i offered to take the board over ages ago but *shrug* ill just post the pics here. i was lazy and posted teh link as i was on my PDA at the time lol

im totally down for a meet. beer adn fish tacos are a fav for me! lol i havent been to a Sil meet since last summer and it was an s12 meet.

and the only seats that bolted up were the fronts. the rear vert seats are smaller to make up for the top frame. i bought a set of front adn rear coupe seats a while back for 20 bucks from a guy up in N. county SD as mine were shot out..not to meantion coupe seats are FAR more contoured to the body where vert seats are more for cruising

here's some pics of the s12 prior to a few months ago. its still in teh garage right now beign worked on and is stripped down to a bare chassis seeing an extensive overhaul. that thing is a freakin mean machine. ive owned more GT stangs and Z's in that car then i can remember LOL!

[Dr.Fate]

This sunday we meet up by mission bay ? anybody down with that? if so I'm thinking around 12 ish till ? hows about that a little food and a few beers, and Talk sh(t.
