Assuming your name is, Dave. The other thing which would help is a picture of the data code (cowl tag). Members are most likely going to want to know what the car was "born with" (bench, buckets, interior color, exterior color, date of manufacture, etc.). Folks around these parts tend to get a tad picky on evaluating metal.

Thanks for the advice.. I'll get those items in the morning... Dave A
Thank you for that info 66SportCoupe, I was wandering where those specs came from. As a regular F85/Cutlass topped out at 290HP for 1964 and even the 442 only had 310HP that year.
This model born weighing around 3050 lbs must move very well with that powerful and perfectly balanced powertrain upgrade. More than doubling the power, adding a gear, and true to Olds. While I'm figuring the swap only added about 200 lbs.
Beautiful car Dave, best of luck with the sale.

But, and this may not be the right place to get an answer... the upper right side of the dash insert is different from other 64's I have seen. it looks like a 66, but the rest of the dash has the wide speedometer like me 64 , im just curios what is going on there, are the dashes interchangable? Or is there. difference in the F85 dash and the Cutlass? I thought it was just the little badge that was different

The Cutlass and F85 dashes were different This car is a base car.
I can’t say definitively about 64’s, but on 65’s the lack of the chrome speaker grill and the uncut grill on the dash denoted a car ordered without a radio.
It would have had a plastic cover over the radio and no hole in the fender for an antennae.

Dave did you sell the F85? Anyone else know if he did? Thanks!
What size wheels do you have? Front and back. And, did you remove most of the trim pieces or was this how the car was bought? Is this original ride height? Or do you have different springs in the back or front? It looks great.

I was told the builder put Big Block springs in the front. The OEM wheels and caps not pictured are 15"s and the wheels on it are 16's. Rear springs are new but stock ride height. As for the trim, I believe it was the base F85 and didn't have anything other than what is pictured but I default to my buddy Jim "66Sportcoupe" Jim is an olds guy and was involved in the build.
Is this car still available? I'm in Lakeville. I have a '64 Buick Special ("post" Skylark) I may be looking to offload. Has a 455/4spd swapped in, bench car.
I noticed a few of us on here from Mn., specifically the Twin Cities. I Live in Eagan. Before it was sold, (beautiful car by the way,) someone was wondering about posting the location. It was at the top and I was going to say so, but I hope it's sold to a good home.

Yes, I sold it to another Olds guy from Wisconsin... He was a body guy at a local shop there and couldn't have been more impressed with the OEM body panels and how amazing the overall condition was... Congrats to him and Thanks to John Demars who built the car!
