Hello all. I have been an olds fan since a kid. Started with my 73 cutlass supreme. Converted that one to buckets and 4 speed in high school. Joined the marines and it had to go. Once settled down again picked up a surfers ride. 71 cutlass supreme convertible bench car. No top, no vinyl on seat but lots of sand everyplace. found correct color console floor shift column and buckets. So. converted to buckets. She served faithfully for ten years then time to settle down and raise family and got set aside. Well time has come to get back in the hobby.

Yesterday is where I jump in both feet first with my 2 boys. Started as a whim find on craigslist...........1965 F85 cutlass convertible factory 4 speed car. I will be starting a long term project thread to break it down. Let the games , sweat, and weld wire go.

Tim
