Guess I should finally chime in. Bought this car as a shell back in March. It had no motor, no tranny, and no interior. In it's former life, it was an N/A Auto. now it's a 1JZ-GTE 5-speed. The mods list is starting to get extensive. I have a small pile of parts still to install. It's been repainted before, but whoever did it did it half-assed (didn't remove tail lights, side trim, front corner lights) and got some paint on various parts, not to mention overspray everywhere. Next year, once it starts getting warm, I'm' going to repaint it. Since I'm doing all the work myself in my spare time, it's probably going to take me all year. All the while I'll be driving her. Once the entire exterior and interior are fully prepped and ready to be sprayed, the motor is getting pulled and the engine bay is getting prepped. I don't know what color I want, but I do know that the finish will be show quality. Anyways, here's a couple pictures of how I got her, and how she sits now. Don't mind the Skyline rims in the engine bay, my buddy needed to store them temporarily and it was convenient. For full details on what's been done, go to my build thread (link in sig).
