Damn I gave you props for nothing..., Nice paint job regardless! Ineed to do the samething

 

Thanks. I guess? LOL!

 

IT'S ALIVE!!! So today I installed my drive belts, reattached my y-pipe to my cat. conv. and topped off all fluids. Connected my battery and it fired right up after nearly a year.

 

 

Been awhile, but I got her running and no more exhaust leak. Installed brand new O2 sensor and repaired wiring. Today I finally installed new lower control arms and clutch master cylinder. I also bought the rubber seals under the headlights from Nissan, those seals are freaking expensive but I finally got them. Next week if the weather is good I will be able to install the front bumper and then test drive it.

 

Sweet, good to hear you almost have it done. I think that green looks nice with the dark windows... Is your interior black?

 

Thanks, ive always loved the Black Emerald on these cars plus its extremely rare just like the aztec red. It has beige leather but will go 2 tone later on.

 

very nice progress and long time awaited haha great to see this beauty come back to life great job

 

Black dash and console at the very least would look dope in that car. I test drove an SE in that color with tan cloth back around 99 and I remember thinking how good it looked, plus it was the first I'd seen at that point.

 

Thanks mista0406.

maxima278: the dash doesn't bother but I'll keep it mind though.

 

Car is finally up and running. Now i need to get it registered and insured and then take it back to the bodyshop for touch up, wet sanding and buffing and paint the wheels. I will reinstall lip kit and buy new fogs when all is said and done. Hopefully i can have all this done within the next 2 months and not another year but other than that everything in the car is operational.

 

nice feeling to finally finish something of this magnitude right?
congrats man

 

Oh yeah. I've been prolonging this since '07 and I finally did it. Can't wait to finally drive it on the road. I miss driving this car.

 

In for updated pics

 

I will post pics once I get the wheels painted hopefully in a month or so.

 

Madd props for following through...no matter how much time has past. It will all be worth it once she's finished or atleast how your mind see's her but I'm sure she'll never be completely done if your like me.

 

Good job Ricky! In for pics!

 

Thanks Shiloh and James. I might take some pics today with most of parts already put back on but still no lip kit. But it is true; this will never be done. I'll try and post pics later in the week.

 

whats up with this?

 

What about it? Im finally driving it but little snags keep coming up so i have yet to install my lip kit back on and haven't gotten around to painting the wheels. But i will post pics of it this sunday of how it looks so far but still not up to my standards and it will never be.
