Hello from Fort Wayne IN.

HI everyone I just found this site and I love it. I'm an olds fan from the time I started at O'daniel Olds here in 83". My first olds was a76" cutlass salon with a 455 then a 91" cutlass for my family car.My next was a61"cutlass f-85 . my 66"delta 88 convertible and my wifes 72" cutlass s which needs some work, but it runs good and has cold blowing air .I got it cheap because it was going to be parted out. It was in to nice of shape for that ,so I was happy to rescue it.I work at O'daniels in the body shop as the head painter and in the restoration shop as the painter/bodyman/fabricator/assembler/jack of all trades.I get to do it all ,what more can I ask for .if you get bored sometime check out our live cams at O'daniel resto. When I'm in the shop I'm the short one always wearing a hat .anyhow I think I'll enjoy this site alot.
