Introduction

I have a 67 Cutlass Supreme convertible which I purchased off a buddy of him and he got it from another friend of ours. It's been in our group of friends since day one. The first fellow passed away from cancer a few years ago so my buddy pulled out of his barn and started to get it road worth but due to his own health issues had to stop last summer. I've taken over the project and am still working at although I've completely run out of funds to go much further but it definitely looking better.

It's very hard to lose friends, this car is a living memory of them and that's a wonderful thing.
many of us on here don't know the full history of our cars, you do, very cool.
Best of luck

That thing is a beauty!
Sorry about your loss.
It's great that it's still in the circle of friends, though.
What does it need to be made road worthy?
Don't worry about making it perfect. Just getting running, driving, and stopping, and enjoy it.
Take care of the little details as time, and funds allow.
Too many people let a car sit half finished because they're striving for perfection, or %100 originality.
Then they don't get to enjoy the car, and it sits for 20 years half finished.
Get out and drive!
