New guy here with an Olds Car. Anyone else have one?

http://pictures.aol.com/ap/singleIma...YDbdNiswMO4%3D I will be turning this Car into a Hurst olds shortly. This is my 8th Olds cutlass since 1980. Went to look at this car for my son and he passed wanting to keep my Monte Carlo SS. I fell in Love in seconds. Already changed out the grills to 442 and presently working on the H/O Conversion.The Wheels I booted as well. I;ll go with the classic cragers when I'm finished. Happy to be here.

Welcome to the site. You can upload images using the the attachment button. Jamesbo is better at explaining how, but if you click on the paperclip icon in the post submission box about top center, the screen will prompt further instructions to upload photos.

Welcome.

I have an Olds too, what a coincidence.

It's a small world.

You can post pics in the window when you POST REPLY . A window will open where you can make your comment. Below that window you will find Manage Attatchments button . Click that and you can browse your computer or another link where you have photos. A lot of guys on this site use photobucket or flickr to store photos and then you can make your own link to those pics. http://www.flikr.com/photos/wolfman98/ I hope this helps.

Yeah just noticed a few comments, I don't have all 8 Olds Cars anymore just in total through the years. Wish I could have them all back.

I had a 70-442, 70-Rally, 70-W-30, 74-H/O, 75-H/O-, 76-442, and a 79-Ho. Never paid more than $1500 for any of them. They all could have been show cars.I drove them daily through whatever weather came here in the south. Never got a Hurst Olds from 1969 and the guy next door had one all through my High school years.This 69 loaded cutlass I have now will be perfect to make it happen.

Wolfman98-Not finding the Manage attachments button. Would you mind if I just sent you the pics?

Thanks for the Help Wolfman98.

Yeah I call this thing the Olds Fire Truck. Once I get it all done it will be an Old school 69 Hurst Olds.
