FINALLY Got the Olds Back!

Finally! Home for good, hopefully! Couple of pics of the new motor and 5 speed. And of course the place my wife says I spend ALL my time!

It's a Tremec TKO 600. It will be a while before I post any go fast stuff. I have to break this thing in. As of now it has a whopping 45 miles on it! I forgot how smooth these Olsmobiles are. The car drives like a dream.

Great to here on the TKO600 . My friend and I had hoped that one of those would fit in his 1963 1/2 Galaxy . So he ordered one and it showed up this past Friday .

I too had forgotten how smooth these cars were . I had not driven mine for 15 years . Drove it yesterday after a complete under car restoration . It was nice to drive it again .

Grab even a mild video for us when you can .

That is a like it or hate it stripe. It came with the car. I am leaving it. It adds a little flair.
