Same WOW! Wish I had more money, more space, and less years!!!!!!!! That will make someone a beautiful Oldsmobile, with a lot of TLC. Saw one last year at the Reno Nationals that was black, bagged, and low. Otherwise, stock, I think.

Reminds me so much of my car when I first picked it up. It was in similar condition, same original paint with surface patina, interior dried out, etc. It looks like it would be a solid project car. The model seventy that I did had a six in it but that came out pretty quick. For anyone's interest who are thinking about buying it a 455 will fit in the engine bay. Pat did it with his car and I did it too.

Unhappy

Yes this is a very cool automobile I hate to sell but I have so many projects at my restoration shop we'll never get to some of them so I thought maybe some one out there would be ready for good solid car to build. Wait a minute!! I just went out side and took a look at and studied it for a bit the Roof is pretty sleek but I think there's room for improvement by trimming the bubble out of the rearward slope! basically pancake the roof towards the rear and the deck lid maybe as much as 4 inches tapering into the front! I believe this will give it a more slippery yet very factory look rather than total custom. metal crafting is my profession so I might as well do it! who wants to sign up and learn how to do custom redesign work on such a classic?
