Hi Simon, welcome to CO.
I've been to Austria many times while I was living in Croatia.
Leibnitz, Graz, Vienna just a few places I remember of top of my head.

Your last name tells me you could be from former Yugoslavia?

Hello Simon,
You came to the right place when it comes to Oldsmobiles. Just ask away and dont be shy. There's no such thing as a stupid question. There's a lot of people here with knowledge when it comes to Oldsmobiles.

Also visit www.73-77olds.com . Not as active as here but the guys there live and breathe 1973-1977 Cutlass.

There was a guy on there from Hungary who has a good website for these year cars. I cannot remember his name but here's a link to his site http://v8cars.hu/73-77cutlassregistry/

Simon, I was born in Zagreb. I spent many summers with my grandparents there. We still own an apartment downtown and a house and quite a bit of property just outside of Zagreb. I used to go back every year but last 2 years I haven't been able to. This summer I will be going again and I'll be taking my 2 sons with me for the first time. I love visiting Austria, we visit every year I am down there.
Nothing like a Döner Kebab and a glass (or 4) of cold Puntigamer.
