My first car is a 1964 Dynamic 88 4dr hardtop

Hey all, this is my first project car and I’m going in basically blind at 19 years old. While the engine sounds good on this car the bodywork went from minor to major when the brakes went on the first drive. The most notable problems other than the need for a new driver side front quarter panel and bumper is the power steering is slowly leaking, it needs new brake cylinders in the back, the interior and paint needs redone, and the electric fuel pump needs changed with a mechanical one. Any tips, tricks, or questions about this vehicle would be much appreciated.

😫😭😵🤬

Hood, bumper, grille/lights, fender and extension are common to all 1964 full-size Oldsmobiles except Starfire fender and grille is different.

See if Pat deaddds here on CO has any of your missing trim.

Make friends with 64guy too. He's young and is working on a 64 D88 4-door sedan.

Welcome. Very cool Olds. That's a bummer the brakes were giving you trouble. Post any questions you have and we'll be happy to help.

That's too bad about your car. Hopefully it won't be too expensive to get it back in order.
