58 and a Post Whore ..

I'm currently Vet Pension, which leaves li'l for the Money Pit...

I've rotisserized my share of cars ...

My current project is a '70 442. I was going to buy a '72 'vert but my friend said I could buy the 442

...

I've been driving and fixing this car and that is a fine way to go ...

This is the first car I've had where everybody looks at it ...

I am not the fastest but I'm just working on cutting a fine light . Everyone likes to race my car though...

A Jap pulled out of a parking space and totalled my Olds ...

Lucky it was my sacrificial 96 cut cieera , which is still drivable and should provide the dough for a fresh mill ...

I've tried to get away from Oldsmobiles and get involved with the 53-56 Mercury Monterey. But Olds won out once again! There's something about those J2 Rocket Super 88's that draw me in, as well as the 442's and other Olds muscle cars out there. They are simply beautiful precision machines.

I also own a 2001 Aurora, and hope that someday it too will be a car to remember, as Old's last flagship. Have been interested in cars since high school - some 40+ years. Am an amateur at engine repair, but am learning and re-learning as I go. Am retired from a career with the telephone company and now enjoying life as a car enthusiast. I'm finding out how exacting this hobby can be. Important to be absolutely correct in what you are doing on a project in order for the best possible results.

Other vehicle owned: 2002 Ford F250 Diesel truck.
