After being overseas for a few years, going through an FD, a couple of skylines, and a few other j-land cars, Im coming home to my new FB. I havent driven it yet, its sitting at the parents place waiting for me. its an '84 GSL-SE, all stock. High mileage, but still runs and drives great, has good power, clean coolant and oil, no trouble starting when hot, nothing. Has a little slop in the front end somewhere, but Ill fix that when I throw some money at the suspension.

 

looking good! welcome back to the world of first gens

 

Wow what a nice looking car. The previous owner must have really loved her

 

Looks like a good solid car. I decided along time ago that mileage really doesn't mean a whole lot to 20+ year old cars. As long as they have been taken car of. Good find.

 

Well, when I say high mileage, I mean over 190k. Its getting up there. I wasnt too hot on the color at first, but Im liking it a lot right now. I really want to get a stock duckbill spoiler on it, in black, and a set of black wantanabes. Maybe some black fender flares.

 

looks really nice!! whats the color code on the vin plate on the firewall?

 

haha uh... i havent actually seen the car in person yet, its at the parents house. but my dad says theres a small dent where the paint has chipped a little, and some Tender Blue is poking out.

 

if it were tender blue originally, the color code should be V3. neat color now though. the UK got a color very similar to that in 85. i'll look it up and get back to you on that. looks similar to color code L6, which is ocean blue metallic. one of my favorite FB colors.

 

cleannn!! ive ALWAYS ALWAYS wanted a tender blue SE

 

^^of course that color on the car is not tender blue... but i do agree that tender blue is a very nice color.

 

Nice FB. Welcome back.

 

i found a pic i had saved of a UK spec 85 with similar paint. seems to have only been available outside of the U.S.:
