Another from Wisconsin

Hi fellow Olds lovers.

I've been working on a frame-off 70 convertible 442 tribute car for many years and might have it on the road this summer. Kind of exciting. Big block bored 30 over with enough cam and compression to make about 500ft lbs and 450HP. Connected to a Richmond 6 speed overdrive with 3.42 posi. Beautiful black paint with 442 stripes, ram air hood. Front clip isn't attached yet. I'll post a few pics soon.

You have that right. My step-son used to live in Sussex on Hickory I believe. ! block south and 1 block west of the post office. He is now in Merton. I shall keep my eye out for you and your ride when I am passing through the village.
