New guy from indiana
Just wanted to say hi. Just picked up a 1968 Cutlass a few weeks ago. This sight has helped me a bunch in getting some of the bugs worked out of the car.

Post pics! We need pics!

Is the car roadworthy? What have you done so far?

Where in Indiana? Gary/Merrillville/Crown Point was my old stomping grounds.

Hoosier!
Welcome ozz. The amount of info and the people who will help here is awesome! My S is from Bloomington, Harry Stevens Olds, but I brought it out here to Colorado where the sun shines 300 days a year! (As a blizzard starts blowing in.)

Thanks for the welcome guys!. The car is in drivable condition. The weather the last few days has allowed me to get her out a little bit. Im from a little town called ossian but live in Huntington indiana now. The car will be a driver when spring gets here. The car runs pretty good but seems to run a little lean. im going to rebuild the carb and tune up the hei (its been updated by the preveouse owner) . ill get some more pics up soon. Some things that need fixed are as follows Gas guadge does not work. Blower motor does not work. Speedometer does not work. I have everything else working. The car had some grounding problems that i think i have fixed.
this is her in the craigslist add when i saw her

Welcome...Nice car. It's amazing how many of these cars have Cooper Cobras on for tires.
