Checkin in from Houston,Tx

Hello all,

I've been lurking on the board for a while so, I guess now is the time to formally introduce myself. I'm currently restoring a 71 Cutlass S which was purchased in great shape. The previouse owner had just replaced the entire interior and the motor has 105,000 orginal miles. The car runs great and currently needs no work on the engine, however, I have been purchasing chrome engine parts that I plan on putting on soon. The car is currently at the painters ( been three weeks now)undergoing a color change from its original color from gold to red w/ white racing stripes on the hood and trunk. Pictures will be posted soon.

Thanks,
Joey from Houston,Tx

Welcome to the CO classicjoe from Perry, GA. Sounds like a nice car you have there. I've got a weak spot for the 68-72 A-bodies.

Talking Welcome to CO

Sounds like your making great progress. Post those picture when you get her back from the painters. Better yet if you have some before pictures post those too so we can see where you started
