I had a look at your pics. Very cool car. It's good to see another green one. I looked at the web page you set up. Great information, and great pics. Very nice.

She is finally home! Still more to do though

I got to bring the Olds home yesterday. That had to be the most nerve racking and exiting ride I have ever had. It's been over a year and half since she has been on the road. I still need to finish up the wiring under the dash, and hook up the heater cables. Then get the stripes and the 442 badges on. Here are some pics, I will post more as I finish her up.

Hey Joe: I thought that shop looked familiar! This place is in Windsor, Ontario. Jesse Henke specializes in Oldsmobiles. He also restores others. I met a guy with a '67 Cougar this summer. Jesse restored it too! I wish I had a picture of it now.

Here's more links...
