My 68 & 69 W30's

Hi guys,

I had my 68 and 69 W30 cars out today for some cruising time with my 4 daughters. Thought I would Share some pictures of the 2 cars.

The picture of the 2 cars together is from today. The other 2 pictures are ones that I had taken before.

Have a great night!

Sam

Cruising with the family is the best part of owning classic cars. That's how I became a car lover, cruising with my dad. Nice cars and nice pics. Thanks for sharing.

The stripes are correct on the 68 as the car still retains the original paint. The 69 as well is an original paint car.

Thanks for the compliments!!!

Cheers,

Sam

Holy moley! That is a nice collection. I think it's safe to say you are a real Oldsmobile fanatic!

Super cars!!! Are they all original paint cars? And how about letting us in on the history of each. You should be proud of each and every one .

My favorite is my 72 as my dad ordered that new in Oct of 1971. It has a lot of sentimental value to me.

Thanks for the compliments.

Good morning,

I have factory documentation for all 6 of the W cars. The 69 is the lone 4 speed W car I have.

Let me know if you would like some more details about the cars.

Cheers,

Sam

OK so how about a picture of your "other" '70 W-30 (as if i haven't been tortured enough already with your collection ).

Sam,
Still looking for information on correct master cylinder for my manual disc 71. I could use some information from your 72 master cylinder if/when you get time.

Great collection. Is that code 68 Sable brown with sienna int. on the 71?

Thanks,
Don W
