Lightbulb Hello from NW Ohio

I just wanted to say hi to everyone. I'm new to the forum, but not to the Cutlass. I've owned about 14 of them from 1970 through 1985. My first was a 72 Supreme hard top. It was the car I used in my wedding. I curently own a 1972 Cutlass Supreme Convertible. I bought it in 1984. It has just over 58k original miles and was purchased new in the loacal area by a lady that owned a dry cleaning business. It has the tictac package (i think that what it's called) 350/4bl and limited slip rear end. It was last repainted in 1979 at a local/former oldsmobile dealer. I have all the paper work. I have decided to strip the whole car this winter and repaint it. I'm going to order new seat covers, carpet, top w/window, top pads, boot cover and what ever else I find that it needs. Really that I want to replace, because it needs very little. I think I'm going to order everthing from Brothers Automotive Parts. I have a lot of various car interest (imports and such), jet ski's, boating. You'll find me on the different forums as "olds72". That was taken here, so I'm "myolds72".

So Sorry, Sandy [Cutlassgal] has used up the entire quota for whining about the Ohio winters.

Welcome to the forum! Keep us updated on your progress, and you could open up a post on the "major builds and projects" section when you start your restoration.

Jamesbro, you'll be in trouble when Sandy see that post!

Welcome to the site! I am in SW Ohio myself. I love your car! I wish my 68 looked as good, but it is sadly getting worse sitting outside during our "harsh" winters heh.

Thanks! This car probably hasn't seen a winter since 1979. I've been caught in the rain a few times though. Too bad you can't get your car inside somewhere.

I keep my Starfire inside.. but the 68 is out in the open. It needs work done anyway so a few more winters shouldn't make things that much worse. Maybe one day I will get it inside, or I will get rid of it before it gets tooo bad.
