I'm a member of another forum that has a thread similar to this one. I'd like to start one here. It's been great over there, seeing all the projects other guys are up to every day! Anything goes as long as it's something you've done to your Oldsmobile. Pictures are always a plus if possible.

I'll go 1st. Today I ordered a new Accel replacement HEI dizzy, Taylor wires and an SMI Q-jet for olds/buick...

 

Changed the oil and greased it at 5:30 this AM. I was 10 minutes late for work

 

I dropped my rebuilt engine and tranny in the cutlass last night. Will be doing the passenger side header, and hopefully hang my new exhaust tonight

 

I took these off:

 

What?? those are awesome

 

I kinda thought so, but she refused to be seen in the car with those on (they're vinyl-magnetic), said they were "dorky". I have to cancel plans for a set Radir wheels and bat spinners as well.

 

I have done absolutely nuffin to it today.

 

Noticed a rattle in my dashboard and failed to locate the source.

 

Removed the drivers side exhaust manifold, waiting for the FedEx guy to show up today with the replacement manifold that "pavemobile" provided for me at a very reasonable cost from a "parts wanted" posting last week!

 

Drove it!

 

Just put new tires on the Hurst today. Looks very good!

Drove my 71 to get it's NY inspection. I just got the car out of 18 months of storage! I was a little nervous driving it with the old gas still in it. Stalled 3 times on the way home but otherwise ran good.

 

Drove it. And beat some dumb *** in a civic who thought he was faster. Lol.

 

i love it!

 

Today I drove it like I stole it then when I parked it back in the garage I noticed the lights are not working on my center console I'll get on that tonight... I like this thread it makes me want to find something to the car

 

Drove mine to the shop(top down) and am having the carburetor looked at for gas leak down. I can only stand for a few minutes because of bad knees so my guy will look it over...Tedd

 

Today?
Just thought about them...

 

Walked pass it wondering why I took the front clip off ?
Now I can't drive it for a min of three years
But on the bright side last weekend I organized all the shiny parts I just got her . The father in law actually thought I was seriouse when I told him only my second wife gets shiny presents !! That was a fun conversation

 

I started mine... It's been a few years....

 

Glad to see you got new rubber finally! I was getting worried seeing you run around on 2 decades or better tires Looks good Ryan!

I fired the ol girl up juist to make me smile lol. then i cleaned the garage and put parts away along with tools. I took it out on sunday and picked up ice cream for me and my girl. Then i left the dairy queen sideways with out spilling the treats lol. I made lots of kids smile and im sure i scared some people.

 

I drove mine to work! Bad idea we have new construction on our lot and it's mainly a dirt surface. Major dust on the car when I got out of work, so after the gym and dinner was nice hand wash.

BTW, I hate how the vinly roof and trim trickles water down the quarters for the next five hours

Pat

 

Lol

 

If you want to keep the interior nice you better leave the sundaes alone and go for Dilly Bars next time.

 

Changed the sending unit Sunday.

 

eh i have those light wheight racing buckets with vinyl covers. My interior is nothing fancy just short of being gutted. It's all buisness in there.

 

Drove it like I do EVERY day and fixed my nemesis - the ashtray for the (hopefully) third and final time! That is the most annoying rattle when it loosens up! I'm working my rattles one by one! I have one more coming from the back somewhere - sounds like the tension rods in the trunk, but I can't replicate it when it is sitting still! Aaaaargh!

 

I began refinishing the grilles on my '71...cleaned em up and then re-painted the silver. It turned out real nice and then i'll start the black accents tommorrow

 

Sold my old house today. The buyer closed at 3pm. It funded at 5:20pm. Between those times I was moving both the 67 Cutlass and the 76 442 to the garage in the new "old" house which up until now has been the home remodeling work space. Of course it was raining the entire time so both Oldsmobiles got a very rare drive in the rain.

 

lololol!!!!!

 

Planning out my work for the weekend... repopulating the engine compartment before installing the Core support...

 

Feeling your pain, did the same thing. However, I did buy my first tank of gas for the mig, to fix a couple of things.

 

Pulling the TH-350 and putting in a built 200R4 and putting in a 3.73 posi. and fixing the ding on the passenger door...Starting this tonight hopefully everything will be done by Sunday.

 

There is no way I could get way with that either

 

last night got my passenger side header on, hooked up all the tranny linkages, cooling lines, and vacuum line. Began switching my rear bumper out for a cut out bumper. Didn't get around to the new exhaust that will be tonights project.

 

Great - Post some pics....,

 

Will do, I have a problem with posting pictures though. I use my ipad because it is really handy to have out in the garage, I can take pictures look up manuals on wild about cars for help etc. For some reason though when I use it to post pictures it only does 1 at a time even if I upload 3 or 4 it only posts one. Its very frustrating. Maybe someone can chime in on that.

 

I finished sanding the instrument panel to remove the crappy rattle-can paint job the previous hack performed. I repaired and re-attached the trim that had come door and 1/4 trim panels and have the passenger side refinished from parchment to black.

Have to travel a long road on this car... miles and miles to go before I sleep

 

Walked by the 54' I looked at it and prayed the virgin sheet metal would not be beat to death by soft ball size hail........All we got was heavy rain.

Need to play musical cars bad and get a 77 C10 out side and this inside

 

I put on a fresh set of redline tires on my '66!
