Hi everybody! I'm Tomas. I'm new here. I love old cars. But I don't have anything but a dream ))) Well, let's see if I buy a car of my dream or ... build it someday

 

Hello, tell us a bit about your dream car. What you would like and how you would like it to perform. Seems as thou it will be an Oldsmobile of some kind given your post in an Olds forum.
You made a good choice when you chose Oldsmobiles, So many awesome guys/gals here with loads of help and support.
You will find a dream car within the Oldsmobile forum.
Please fill us in on what you may be interested in.
Cheers
Eric

 

Welcome To Classic Olds Forum. May your dream come true.You should be able to find something without dealing with rust in your area. Keep us informed. Larry

 

Welcome to the site, a car is not a necessity to participate. Good luck in your quest.

 

Thank you for your support guys! While surfing the site, reading your chats, I understand that I know so little about old cars. And my dream may really change. I'll keep you informed! :-)

 

Tomas, I wouldn't hold back on your dreams. These guys have helped many fix up their Olds. They can suggest tools that will assist and help, also many pictures to help out. One thread that really comes to mind is by Macadoo "Pulling the motor". Have a read through how these guys came together to assist Mac with his car. If you are somewhat mechanically inclined as Mac was you could pull it off.
All the best with you decisions,
Cheers
Eric

 

Thanks Eric! I'll take a look at Mac's story.

 

Thomas, another member that comes to mind is Kenneth (Fun71) here. He is from the Arizona area as well. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to Oldsmobiles. Look up his profile and check out some of his posts, he's always very helpful in our forum. Just too many guys to list here that give so many of us lots of help.

Hi Tomas. Tell us a little more. Your age, experience with cars, and what cars attract you. My suggestion is to read and learn about older cars. Knowledge is power. Take some courses if available. When the time comes and you have the money figure out what you want and then what you want the car to be. Set a goal. If your knowledge is lacking buy the best quality you can afford. If it is going to be a project get one that has a lot of support for parts availability, no matter the maker. A Cutlass is easier to get parts for then a Jetfire, a Mustang more then a Fairlane, etc. Start collecting tools. If someone around you is into cars, start learning from them. Want to learn old cars? Find an old mechanic.
Just my 50 cents. Post any car questions in the general area, no matter what make and somebody will comment.
It makes us happy to help someone get involved our passion.
Pat

 

Thank you Eric a lot! I'll check out Kenneth's posts.

 

Patrick, I've always admired such keen enthusiasts like you! It seems to me that I'm in a right place now. I'll take some more time to look about and then I think I'll keep up the ball easier :-)

 

Welcome. I'm pretty new here too at least for posting. It ain't easy for us old guy's...

 

Welcome to the forum, Tomas! Glad to have you here. You've came to the right place - lots of knowledgeable people here who can help you when you get what you're looking for. Good luck with the hunt and ask away if you need any info.

 

Got to start somewhere Tomas. Any thoughts on what you are pursuing?

 

It seems to me that I have some ideas.
I ask myself: what about Ford Sunliner?
What would you tell me?

 

Welcome to the site... Hope your search goes well...

As for your "I ask myself" question... Try this forum:

http://www.fordforumsonline.com/foru...-classics.106/

 

IMHO, A Sunliner is unique, if purchased with good body, running, stopping and driving interesting. A few upgrades are a must. (dual master cylinder)
Not complicated. To restore, not easy to do and could put more in it then it would sell for. Not popular.

 

Thank you guys! Now I'm monitoring the prices. I'll tell you later.
