OLDS Boneyard going out of business in 5 mos.!!!!

I posted here to get the word out. Mods if that's a problem please move to the appropriate spot. As some of you may know from my 61 Olds 88 2 dr sedan thread I have a friend in Redbluff CA who has a 30 + year boneyard of Oldsmobile parts. He called me today to let me know everything must go by May 1st 2012. I'm going to be his internet middleman to get the word out. It's mostly 50's 60's early 70's to mostly full size stuff. Lots of engine, trans and rearend core parts. Contact me at 61olds88@gmail.com and I will try to help you out. I will be going up there soon. If it's smaller stuff I can arrange shipping. Thanks Tim Bernardin

Thumbs up Complete F. S. Olds

Have you got or are you able to get any recent pictures of the Oldsmobiles he has still available in his field of Dreams?

Thanks, Cliff

Thanks Tim for getting the word out. I'll post a link on ROP for you. I sent an email to you about a rear bumper for '64 Dynamic 88. I hope your friend can make a couple bucks before these relics are all gone. Really a couple well placed adds on Fleabay could help, if someone can pull the parts needed.

parts but sometimes you have no choice..) Its not to early to start planning where the remains will go... im in san diego

Good News! I'm going up there today! Better news, He's moving everything to another yard on consignment! My girlfriend and I are going up with an empty p/u truck and a pocket full of cash! I'm picking up another 455 block, maybe a 425, and a bunch of other stuff. He's moving pretty fast so I want to get there asap. I will post pics later this week. I'm driving so I wont be able to take any calls but you can email me at tcb1961@yahoo.com and check my email on my phone when I get there. or email you his number or and I'll try to look for you.
