  • 1993 Ford Probe.

    First of all this probably won't be your typical build thread as I'm only 17 and have no money.
    I got this car out of a whim, I wrecked my other car and needed a car bad so I picked it up for 300.
    The guy told me that he had auto-x'd the car previously and he had stripped the whole interior.
    Basically my plans for this are get it low. Get a clean engine bay. and strip any unnecessary part from it as in a/c, pointless lights and etc.
    Anyway heres some pics to start out with...I found a complete black interior in our scrapyard and snatched it up for 100 bucks. Mint condition leather dash
    And the sunroof wasn't attached and flew off on the highway so I riveted on a piece of metal haha













    Thats it for now. I'll do more hopefully tomorrow as I don't work. tell me what you guys think? thanks

    These can be great cars. Don't let stereotypes rule your view. I've had 3 and have loved them all. I currently have a black 94 gt that I'm building. Good luck and don't hesitate to pm me with questions or concerns!

    Here's mine

      Hell yeah bro! Keep it up and stay strong overall. American flush builds are fun to see.

        I personally like Probes... I haven't owned one, but I wouldn't hesitate to pick one up! My buddy used to have a clean blue/green one.

          damn dude that thing looks tight as fuck. I'm either painting it back to stock color or I really want to find a mint paint. Thanks for the comments dudes

            I'd paint it the stock color, my last one was that color and I really loved it. When it's fresh paint it's really pretty in the sunlight.

                Today after I get out of school, I'm going to get all the stupid plastidip that guy put on it and sand down the metal piece and paint it black so it looks better and then i'm going to strip off the stupid chalkboard paint and just clearcoat the raw metal until i get factory paint. And i'm going to cut off some dead coils out of my stock struts. I will be getting newer koni's hopefully and some lowering springs. I'm really wanting to bag this but I don't know yet. I'll put up pics of progress after school stay tuned.

                      Well I got some more work done. I don't know if anyone even looks at this but I'll keep posting for my own pleasure. lol. I got the sunroof all bondo'd and it looks decent for now. I also got rid of that dumb chalkboard paint on the hood and I figured why not clear coat the raw metal I think it looks sick. Thats it for now. Oh and I also got my interior completely put in. might cut springs tomorrow and thursday cause i want it low but dont have time to wait. lol.

                          Thanks a bunch dude. I still have to take a ton of time and bondo and sand the roof until its 100% to my liking but It'll get there soon. I don't want to rush this hah.

                            Might be trading my car tonight for a 1990 Honda Prelude Si. I know it's not the best thing to do but I've always wanted an older honda and now may be my chance. I will start a fresh build thread for it if i do end up trading I'll keep updating.
