No. You can post as many pictures as you care to post. You can post multiple pictures at the same time or one at a time in several different posts. Depending on the device you're using (phone, tablet, PC, etc.) sometimes it takes a couple minutes - patience.

You're posting large pictures (in terms of MB). That's fine. The pictures are far more crisp with much more detail. No worries. We like nice pictures. Be patient, you're probably loading up some big pictures - that's cool.

Her name is Mary Beth.

I've had a couple of Cutlasses, but then my attention shifted to 66 Toronados. This is my third 66 Toronado, and I don't plan to ever sell it.

I guess moderately modified. 30 over 455 with 285 lunati cam,rpm air gap, 750 Holley and 391 type “0” rear end. 15x8 rears 15x6 front original dog dish caps. Also turbo 400 2500 stall. I bought pretty much like this. Had to fix some oil leaks, had the trans gone through. I would like to de-tune it a little but it runs pretty well so I will probably leave it as is for now. Body is real solid, interior is pretty good too.

Thank you cobra, not the pinnacle year that your beauty is, but 71 is special for me - my first Oldsmobile ever was a 71 CS. Glad you got photo uploading sorted out on here, now about that spec of dirt I see on your headrest.

1972 Cutlass Supreme drop top.

Though mine looks stock it heas some tweeks. I did the exterior paint in viking blue but then added the custom hand laid Hurst-ish Stripes back in 2005. Now there seems to be several people doing the same stripe design. Maybe Olds should have kept them for 71/72. It was deleted from the assembly manual. The engine Rocket 350 #'s matching but with 70/71 pistons. And I installed a date correct Rochester 4BBL but with stage 2 needling and jets. Pypes polished stainless steel 2.5 duals mated to Thornton's 350 Split exhaust manifolds. They got Olds lincensing do reproduce the 455 split manifolds for the 350 engine. Interior has the original seat up as it did when my Dad owened it but I switched out the black carpet and belts for dark blue and went with the stainless buckle covers. But they were all date coded correctly for 72. Also added Rallye gaude and blue LED bulbs to the gauges and instrument courtesy lights above the controls. Finished it all off with an Antique Auto Audio AM/FM wonderbar radio linked to an Alpine mini amp in the trunk.

Beautiful 98, it must be the largest car in Sweden! Does it fit down some of the narrow streets of Stockholm?

I love everything about the style of those vintage Holiday's - gorgeous pieces of machinery made of solid metal. Very nice, indeed.
