I just wanted to say "Hello" to all.

I just recently bought a 1968 Olds 98, in the garage at the moment getting a front end overhaul.

I will be looking for parts.

Regards

Chas

Front End....All Arms, Ball Joints, Tie Rods, Shocks etc. Sump gasket.Water pump.

I don't know about the wheels...in fact this is my first American car. I am from England and my other car is a...

 

Nice Jag!
Which one will get the set of Longhorns?
