Hey I have this pic from a while ago and just noticed something. This convertible has no tonneau cover in back. It looks like it was transformed into a 2-seater. Does anyone have any more pics or know if the owner has a website?

 

Hey thats our car club!
The stripes make that car fast.
Or the twin turbos under the hood. It's one or the other, I get them confused.

 

he atends the mailing list event each year and the bowling green event yearly as well. i cant recall all the details but he made the fiberglass cover himself.
check around on some of the indiana boards. i think thats where hes from.

 

Ya Id like more info and pic's of the TT setup..

 

These are the 2 pic's I have of it..

 

mailing list events? for which club?

 

That is my buddy's car and his name is Jeremy also. It is a very sweet car that he has put alot of time/money into. Right now it sits as a stock 305 with twin turbos, '93 T56 6speed, with a C4 IRS under it. It was originally a 305TPI/auto/drum brake car. So much stuff done to it that I can't start to list/describe but if you want to ask some stuff I can try and answer the questions for you guys. He is rarely on the internet. I'll find a link to his website. Also he is only in his mid 20s and does most everything on the car himself or by friends. Him and the car are from Southern Illinois... not Indiana. He's a bodyman and made/modified the hood, spoiler, tonneau cover, and roll bar.


*That is my GTA next to his car in the first pic... that was the BGKY '02 meet... Our club is www.team3rdgen.com also.

 

NICE GTA MAN...... So your buddy has

IRS ...nice... Can you get more better pic's of the car?

Turbo headers and placement, and the IRS. mounting points etc.
and the tonneau cover.

 

Thanks man, I'll post a link to pics of my cars and stuff. Here is the TT IROC link...

thanx GTA91 for backing me up. i wasnt sure how to contact him. every time i have talked to him he was a pretty nice fella to chat with.

 

awesome pic's of both cars.

THANKS

 

I'll pass the compliments on to him. He just had the headers coated and the car still hasn't been tested w/ the IRS. We're also fighting some gremlins w/ the DFI install.

As GTA said, all the pics of the car are available here. The turbo work was done by DaVinci Motorworks in Belleville, IL and everything else (tonneau, hood modifications, IRS, T56 swap, etc) were done by him in little ole garage. I could probably throw together a short page describing the car if need be.

 

Now that car is badass.
I've been contemplating eliminating the back seat and brainstorming on ideas to eliminate the tonneau and gap in the deck.

Nicely done!

Very impressive!

 

Suprised no one mentioned the tinted front windshield.

 

Yeah, that is actually due to his medical eye condition. He usually wears sunglasses 24-7 too if you meet him. Also, if I remember right, the car was originally black, so when he painted it yellow, he just repainted the front a-pillars black, and that along with all the windows being tinted and a black 'vert top.... when the top is up it looks badass... all black up top!!

 

I didnt notice that either till you said something.

 

Yeah, that is why I love Jeremy's car so much... no matter how wild it is (yellow, z06 rims, TTs, tonneau, etc, etc) there are alot of small things like that, that really make his car what it is. Check out the lip on the ASCD hood and the lip on his spoiler that he did himself, almost unnoticeable... or the hand done painted pinstripes along the '910'92 ground effect air openings. There are a lot of small things like that on the car that really make it what it is. If you guys ever see it in person, take the time to thoroughly check it over!

 

I talked with him at BW3's car show. He is a cool guy. The car has a lot of neat touches.

 

Does it seem odd to anyone else that a person hypersensitive to light would buy a convertible?!

 

I have known jeremy since we were both in high school. The guy is incredibly talented. Never thought that back in the days of us being highschool drunks that we would both become such big gearheads. I talk to him about once a week, so if you need to ask him some questions, let me know. The car is wicked...he has added so many custom touches, from the cowl length on the ASCD hood, to the "SS" style rear wing, to the hand built cover, to the police stobes, to the TT set-up...anyway, you get the idea.

 

that is the sickest F__ING suspension mod i have ever seen. how much was that swap? all fabed and welded yourselves? i have to try that. where to find a corvette rear...

 

I am not sure where he got the rear, but he did all the fabrication himself.

 

Oh yeah, ole "mongse_1" isn't hurting for mods either.

 

IROCFAST- Whats up man? I've known Joe and Jeremy for 4-5 years now and they are too awesome guys with some crazy cars. I need to meet up with you sometime, I'm originally from Red Bud, IL... right down the road from you! As for Jeremy, last weekend he picked up a 1 of 28 GTA convertible too! What a punk! LOL Talk to you later!

Yeah, we should all meet sometime. I have the tranny in mine in peices right now, not by choice, and am working a deal on a tremec. You're in Jackson, MO now? Do you know Scott Koon? Have you seen his SS silverado?
