The car remained mostly issue-free and it was a shame to just let it sit. The only time it moved is when I needed access to my lift, so I'd end up moving it off the lift and back on as needed. I ended up trading it for a POS 95 Trans Am 6spd car (rotted out floors, missing hardware, accessories were removed due to opti taking a crap) and plan to use the T56 setup in my 69 Camaro and a bunch of usable parts for my '94 and can still squeeze out some money in parts.
The Olds went to a great home and even starred in his family's 2025 Christmas photos (tree on the roof and all - picture below and I cropped out his fam). The new owner loves the car and drives it when he can. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't very cooperative this winter in PA, but he's into it and having fun.
This marks the final chapter for me. Thanks to all for the great info I have learned about this platform and to the few who followed this build thread. Perhaps another Olds will be in my future, you just never know lol.
