I believe registration is now open
They had it closed for a while due to spam.

Cheers from Hamilton !!

I always have problems with that site. I rarely even check it anymore. I am also a 76 owner.

[QUOTE=Paladin31;660815]Hey 76 anything specific you are looking for?
I could use a set of 76 grills, any black interior stuff, another console in black, chrome window trim, inner front plastic fenders, also any plastic interior trim in decent shape, any color I suppose I could always paint them black.
Thanks for asking
Eric

Hey man, hit me up if you have any questions regarding 76 issues. I've busted my knuckles on mine quite a lot recently. I may even look to you for answers, who knows?

Hey 76olds, sorry to hear you're having trouble with the '73-'77 site. As stated, spam was an issue some time ago and registration was suspended for a while.

With these cars, loosing skin comes with the territory.

Macrover...Thanks for posting over on the 73-77 olds site for us, I seen your post with regards to the issue myself and Mark are having, It seems that a few others are having problems as well. The guys have posted for new members to help with the site but to no avail, I hope they all come over to CO in the near future, we could use them for our year cars.
Much appreciated
Eric

You know what's funny I finally came to the realization after all these years working on this car to stop when I think whatever tool I have in my hand is going to slip off and rip my knuckle..then I looked at my cheesy tools and pitched them and replaced with some better ones... Then after replacing every bolt on the car and it becomes finished I've moved on to another car to start the whole possibility of damaging my hands again..I guess it's an obsession after all.

I'm in Myrtle Beach SC. Only one other 73-77 cutlass around here for miles. I kinda like the exclusivity.

Anybody able to get on the '73-'77 Olds forums yet?? I have almost gave up myself. I have a '74, I have had for 31 years. I will miss that forum if it goes away. Hopefully they can put a section in here devoted to the '73-'77 models.
