I bought a Yugo???

[RGibbs]

As the title states, a couple months ago I picked up an 89 Yugo GV.

Yes, you read that right, Yugo.

So I stumbled across this ad on Craigslist for an $800 Yugo. At first I thought it would be a bad idea, but then I realized I'd break necks and I was sold. My dad and I drove 4 hours both ways to pick up a Yugo and all he said was "You better prove everyone wrong".

So here is was, when I first set my eyes on it.








First day in the shop.


Details:
1100cc
4 speed
56k original miles
Runs/ kinda drives
Needs some rust repair, wiring issues to chase down, and there's no brakes.


What I've done so far:

Fixed the ignition/ Broken key situation



Momo hub
Slammedenuff Minty Steering wheel
Wood bead seat covers


Borrowed my buddy's Diamonds and went as low as I could go in the rear since its mono leaf.




Plans:
Get it dailyable

Traklite Drums 15x8 et0


Moar low

Possible camber or flares

Re wrap interior panels


Hard wood hatch?

I really want to see how you make a Yugo look cool... sounds like you have good plans for it. Good luck.

[RGibbs]

Fixed the original post and added pictures.

[Oh Damn, it's Sam]

Much better.

If this thing doesn't wind up with a rakija dispenser mounted in the trunk, I'm going to be very disappointed.

[RGibbs]

You may be a little disappointed. Lol
