Grand Prix Build Up on CarDomain...

**Iron Indian** · 04-29-2008

Scotty and I were talking about this car at the last meet. I finally got around to finding the link to this car. Many of you guys have seen this car on ClubGP. He basically took a stock GTP tore it down completely and restored every bit of it. It turned out nice and he took a lot of pictures of the progress.

Here is the link to this car... Project GTP (Almost finish) - mercier, Quebec

The car went from this...

To this...

Moderators, please make this sticky...

Thanks...

^^^I love how that orange paint always looks wet.... There is so much time and energy into that car, and it looks simply amazing

**Sabrewings** · 04-29-2008

Talk about a complete rebirth...

I'm speechless.

**IndeedSS** · 04-29-2008

isn't that the car that wound up in a corn field recently when the N* bracket bent putting the the gal racing it at the track in a scary situation?

Edit: Yep here is the thread ClubGP Message Forum troubleshooting

fwiw that build is the nicest GP I have ever seen.

Yeah sure is one very sweet ride..
That is Jocelyn's car he is a member of the OQCGP Club...
I am hoping he will bring it out to the Meet in June in Ottawa...
I wish he would post all the pics he has of this build and some of the
other pics he has...
There was no corners left untouched with this restore...

I'd love to have the tools to be able to do that to mine!

**jacobmh27** · 08-26-2008

hell yea

**Street Wolf** · 08-26-2008

I give that guy all kinds of props for being able to accomplish that transformation.

But after I give him props I'd probably punch him in the face for tearing it apart.

The orange GTP was a ZZP featured car =)

The orange GP is that ugly GP in the first picture, and it does'nt really take much to be a 'featured' car on ZZP's site.

that paintjob is really sweet...and yes the black headlights look great unless he had street wolfs... hahaha

Did he ever say what his plans are? I seen the parts for sale and was kinda wondering if he's going turbo? Usually when you do that to a car you keep it in the family for a while...

Last thing I heard was he had plans to part the entire car out or sell it locally up there in Canada becuase he and his wife both wanted a bike.

Absolutely Awesome, but I was just wonderin, you spent so much time and money into the performance and looks (well spent I must say...) but you didnt take the next step to upgrade any interior features, new seats, Dynamat, sweet system, carbon fiber dash, led's, anything....? or did you but you haven't gotten a chance to post those yet? because when you had everything apart would have been the perfect time for it.

P.S. I love the bondo'd front plate.

Because then he'd pretty much just be a ricer. With money, and the front plate cover is actually molded into the bumper. It's just just a big pile of Bondo holding it on there.

**quiksilvergt** · 09-05-2008

Nah It takes more than that to be a ricer, stick on body accents, big goofy lookin spoiler, neon lights under the car, rims and tires worth more than the car, oh and dont forget the folgers can muffler!!!

P.S. His engine is like twice the size to meet the requirements
