Here is a short build blog about the Green Lada.
The Ladas transformation started about three years ago. The object was an old Lada 2105 1200S from 1988 saved from eternity behind a shed. The intention was to build something fun that you don’t see everyday and something that would stand out.
Where it started.
The body was rust fixed, got some filler and was sanded down.
The Green Lada in the paint shop back in winter 2009.
On the summer most was original except some sound system, rims grill and eyelids
Winter 2010:
The engine was lifted out and the engine bay is cleaned out
The bumper holes were welded shut.
Engine got a quick fix and some fresh paint. A new Sachs clutch was also fitted to cope with the brutal force of the engine
Engine bay painted also in awesome green.
Engine put back in
Radiator
Exhaust
Some covers I made, turned out nicely
The interior was ripped out and a better sound system was built.

Damped with 4mm bitumen
Silent coat
HU: Macrom M-DVD6545R 1-Din DVD-7″
Front: 2x Macrom M2S.61 6″
Subwoofers: 2x Macrom 10″ double coil (2x 4 ohm coils per unit)
Amps: 2x Macrom M2A.1000MK2 Mono one per sub (2 ohm), Macrom M2A.4000MK2
Macrom cables, fuse blocks etc…
The box for the 10″ Macrom subwoofers was made out of 23 mm chipboard, double boards where the subwoofers are bolted.
Door panels out of 12 mm chipboard, fibre glassed and dressed in vinyl. The other "thing" is for the gauges.
Here are some LQ pics of the tweeters. The brackets were made out of small camera stands, remade and bolted to the A-beam
Here is the head unit and gauges. The gauges are Swoosh RPM, volt, and engine temp multi color gauges, the console home made and dressed in grey vinyl
Almost done!
Dressed in vinyl.
New rims were also made for the Green Lada. Steel rims is the way to go. 8,8″x13 in the back and 7,5″x13 in the front.
White paint. Don’t get more whiter than this.
Tires: 185/60 in the back, 175/60 in the front.
Wheels and shocks
Cutted springs
Fitment
Little camber
Here are some pics of the finished product. The Green Lada sitting nicely outside in the dark.
