My SE project

[OB1]

Just picked this one up from FL planning on making it My DD as soon as the engine is replaced. I'll then be able to start over on my SVT & keep the miles off of it. I was thinking about putting an SVT kit on it but Brapple is dominating this color right now, Damn him! My main priority is getting another DD so it might still happen in the future.
V6 MTX, motor is toast.

nice. yet another one. LOL

That thing is just begging for some SVT goodies, as well as a 3 liter. :laugh: Sorry Brian

 

[steelblueSE]

Brapple's is medium steel blue metallic. That is more of a light blue by the looks of it. They are close though.

I'm considering a full 3L w a mild tune for mileage & the ability to run 87 octane. I just happen to have a parts SE that is supposed to run but I've never tried it. I'm going to take a good look at that engine before I do anything else.

Ob the contour collector. He sees his prey through the hustle and bustle of the city and pounces on it and takes another contour into captivity,lol hahaha looks good ob.

nice! i'd just drop a svt engine into it and call it good. the lighter se will feel a little more lively than a svtc.

 

[icysvt]

keep adding to the collection man!

what makes the svt 300lbs. heavier than a se? is it the body kit? :laugh:

 

[theSCHAFF]

wow, what happened to the motor in that SE ? It LOOKS like it's in really great shape from the outside :shrug:

 

[OB1]

I don't know how it happened but it looks like it slung a rod.

 

[OB1]

My spare motor has a rod knock so I'm going to be on the lookout for a dirt cheap 2.5 or I'll be trying to get the cash up for a 3L. Come to think of it my brothers 3L is sitting in the shop waiting to go.............. I wonder if he'll miss it?

 

[zorrex]

Wait, what is up with the exhaust? It is on the wrong side! :shrug: :laugh:

Pretty clean looking car!

 

[icysvt]

iirc it has duals on it catback of some sort

 

[OB1]

It has Single exhaust, there is just a huge muffler hanging here at the bumper.

 

[zorrex]

Well look at it this way: You've already got both exhaust hangers. It is begging for duals! :laugh:

Brapple's is medium steel blue metallic. That is more of a light blue by the looks of it. They are close though.

I was going to say, that looks like moonlite blue or something like that, its close but not as dark as the medium steel blue metalic.

mostly the leather interior .... engines shouldn't be all that different in weight. yes the larger bumpers and side skirts could add into that also.

Is that a thumbs up to go ahead & do it?

 

[BrApple]

well what is the paint code :laugh:

if you want to do it go for it. I am actually the second person to put the SVT kit on a SE of my color ... the first member and car are long gone ...
