Hi all

I am the proud owner of an 1964 Olds Dynamic 88 Convertible. I have had it for about 15 years and for about the last 5 have been brutal on it. Everything on it is in really good shape but the floor pans. The roof started to leak and some water settled on the floor and it started to rust out. What I am wondering is if anyone knew where I might be able to get some new ones or at least some fairly good used ones. Didn't know if maybe there might be a cross reference to another vehicle of the same year. Thanks for any help that you might be able to give me?

Welcome someone will chime in and answer your questions soon. I have a convertible and I don't think I would keep it if i didn't have a garage.

I do now have a garage, but for a few years I had made some bad choices and had to face up to them and had to live within my means which means I had to find cheap housing and it didn't include a garage.

I'm glad. I had the same problem with my first a 68 cutlass s. I finally sold it. Tried everything to keep it looking good. With 2 little kid at the time and running a business it was a losing battle.

Sorry to hear about the sad goodbye's to an old friend. Haven't been in a position to do that personally, but I'm sure I was the reason for a few goodbye's as a mouth to feed for my father. I think I should call and apologize...he got shafted in that deal.

Welcome

Welcome aboard

I'm sure someone will help ya find some parts. Just hang in there for a while. The problem with the Nebbie Thread is we need to move the post to the propper section to get it noticed as "Parts Needed"

First, welcome to CO. Second, and I recommend these guys to everyone that asks your kind of question; look at Kanter and Fusick. They both have websites, one has a download-able catalog. Good stuff but not cheap.
