Brand new old Olds.

Hello from very cold Colorado.
I recently traded a few cars and ended up with a 64 Super 88 4door. I was going to sell it off for nothing but something told me to keep it. A week later , I really like it and I am going to keep it.

I want to make it a safe fast and fun family car. I may be forced to keep the body exactly how it is now for a while. I really do not like the rat rod style but for now it is much more important to have it run great.

I am in the same situation with mine. I plan to get mine on the road for a year or two until I can afford the body work. I used to feel the same way about rats, but the look is growing on me. In fact, you can see in the pic below, I have a rat project in waiting that I have gotten really excited about since my 442 came with an unneeded 330.
