got Joanne in pretty good shape for the nissan dealer. was in York Pa today getting that one ready to ship next weekend to pittsburgh. it's will be put straight into the bodyshop it wont be blue when its done
"Jo" looking pretty
you have so many SE's and there all the same color !!!
update got the one from fla (Roxy) getting ready for paint. I have sold Joanne and the the one from York Pa i am down to three now. i have installed headers and a 3" stainless exhaust on Roxy hoping to have ready for paint by next weekend i am changing the color to 2006 BMW midnight blue.
this is the color i am painting it
shipped the car to the body shop today should be done in 2 weeks cant wait to see in midnight blue
just realized u named the one from fla roxy....haha as we all know i lived in florida before moving so gues what i named mine wen i got it lol
i get Roxy back next week from body shop. i spent more on the paint than the car. i having a hard time picking rims and tires. i think something in a 16x8 for rear and a 16x7 up front
wow mark i cant wait to see how this turns out
i planned on shooting the car this weekend but the air compressor took a dump. 
are you doing the work your self?
i stripped the car of the lights and everything, a friend who is real good at body work did that but i am going to paint it. i hate body work but love painting.
you dont happen to need any spare vg air box stuff do u? lol its just floating around my hatch right now
a little taste
looks great ...now just paint mine next lol
will have busy weekend putting her back together. the hard part is waiting 3 weeks for the tires and wheels :cry2:
paint looks killer. i still cant believe how mint that interior is...not to mention you have all the a/c vent louvers too
well Roxy is home time to start putting her together. the paint came out really good the pics do not do her justice. now to start on all the upgrades. i have some surprises for under the hood
the color shows better in these pictures it is blue but looks black at night or in low light
Looking good!
been putting Roxy back together. my 8 year old nephew helped me out. he wanted to clean up so he was nice enough to take all the nuts, bolts and screws and put them in one container for me. it only took me about a hour to sort them all out again
the back center piece between the lights was all fogged and rough so i got Mothers headlight restorer. i really always liked this product besides the regular polishing items there is a package that has warnings on it only to used when all else does not work. i had to use that package it is sanding blocks. it took me 6 hours to get the lights to come out how i wanted them

Mothers
after 6 hours 
Looks amazing. I wish I were closer so I could come soak up some know-how on that painting.
Looks good keep the updates coming...
Mother of god that is beautiful. Black SE's are the best :grinwink:
I've been wanting to do something about my tail light center piece, but I don't think I want to do it THAT bad hahaha.
Seriously incredible so far. I cannot wait to see your wheels of choice on it.
now that the body is pretty done its time to put my attention to under the hood. i have talked to VGBoosted about putting a turbo on it and iceageg and i discussed putting a supercharger on it. i even talked Mr.510 about a carb version and blow thru charger. i have went with http://www.dominationchassis.com/ i am going with a ProCharger system this is a centrifugal supercharger and will have a intercooler. the reason i picked this was it was the easiest and most noninvasive option. i am dropping off a spare VG i have to them to mock up the brackets and to fab new headers. i am going thru another VG that has 31k miles on it. i am painting it and just doing a good cleaning. we are going to start with stock injectors but we will change to a z31 turbo ecu and maf. we will start at around 9psi of boost. my goal is 350hp.
Procharger F-1
intercooler
new rad with electric fans
new headers custom built
new stainless dual exhaust
battery relocate
new stainless overflow bottle for rad
new stainless windshield wiper fluid bottle
new turbo ECU
new turbo MAF
Dyno Tuned

So much win here.
sorry for being away from site been very busy. Roxy is very close to being complete. will update with pictures very soon was waiting till she was done with this phase of her life. some members have already see pics and seem very please with the results
Complete as in driveable?
mclovin this!!...paint looks great and i know its a hard color to pull off because the body work has to be perfect...even when i thought it was perfect on my Chevelle,the imperfections pop out of anywhere!! i had alot of corrections on that car and went through a lot of black!! supercharger set up looks like a great choice.
