Hello
Hi, everyone. I'm Roger from northeast fl. I have done past restorations on a 71 Cutlass conv. and a 77 GMC Motorhome (Toronado drivetrain).
Just picked p a 67 F-85 conv. A bit of a basket case, but mostly solid and all there with a 20,000 mile rebuilt 330.
Will have plenty of questions (and answers).
35 yrs as an auto body tech and mechanic.
In going through the parts for the F-85, I have found many Olds parts that do not belong to this car. Is there a section here to buy and sell parts?
That's all for now, looking forward to my new build. Will post some pics when I can.
Thanks

Welcome to the site, look forward to the pictures. As Pogo said click on the Forums tan in the upper left side of your screen and scroll down. What part are not for your car? There are a lot of parts that interchange with GM A bodies from Buick, Chevy, and Pontiac.

Parts and pics
What extra parts I have are for different year olds. This guy collected for a while. Still working to get everything out of the storage unit I took over when I bought the car. There is a 68 455 block, 3 or 4 cranks, 2 still wrapped in plastic (hope some are forged!) nasty set of 65 425 heads. I listed a few parts on the classified area this morning.
Now I'm going to try to load a pic of my 67. Not much to see until I get it loaded and home.
I think I will like the F-85, less chrome and only 3777 F-85 ragtops were built.

Just to be technically correct, you have a Cutlass convertible. The F-85 was the low-end A-body, and it was offered as a convertible only in 1962 and 1963. After that, every A-body convertible was some flavor of Cutlass (Cutlass, Cutlass S, Cutlass Supreme) or 442. In 1967, the A-body convertible was offered in all of the Cutlass lines (Cutlass Six, Cutlass V-8, and Cutlass Supreme).
