Ditto on the lookin good! Got some more pics? I see you've even got one of the dealer OLDSMOBILE license plates!! Tried buying one on ebay a few times, but when the bidding went over 60 bucks, it was time to quit. Nice color BTW. What kind of options does this baby have?

Paul P...yup, it's me.....

4fortwo - factory OAI hoods fit that way. Check out any of the ads for 70 442s with the hood. They all have it for some reason.

Allan R - 4 speed, 3.91s, PS,PDB, tilt wheel, sport wheel, AM/8 track, power trunk, Rally Pack, Speed Minder, buckets, console, light group, rear defogger, SS1 wheels. I have the build sheet too.

Oldsguy - It is Sherwood Green, code 48. Pops nice with the pearl interior.

I had the car painted in 2000 for $3,000.

The car had no rust or bodywork, just paint.

The paint is DuPont ChromaBase, which is a BC/CC system.

The shop I used is in Franklin, Mass. It is FSA Restorations, and they are old car guys to the core.

FSA did the door jambs, under the trunk lid, under the hood, and painted on the hood stripes. I had a local pinstriper do the side stripes and the trunk stripes.

Looks like a nice day for a mother's day cruise. Did Sam do the pinstripes?

As far as fitment I've noticed most glass hoods either line up in the front or the back , not both ...

I went for lining up the front. I plan on getting some cherry nos hinges and I will try for both ...
