Welcome to the site, x2 on posting a list in the parts wanted classifieds.

 

Welcome to the site. What parts are you having trouble finding? As the others said, post a thread in the Parts Wanted forum. All of the parts for your Olds should be easily found except for maybe body panels, trim, bumpers and glass. You'll have to scour a salvage yard for items like that.

 

Welcome. Mechanical parts are available anywhere. Body and trim parts are almost unavailable new, as there is virtually no demand for them. Most of these cars have been scrapped or used as demo derby cars. Few people restore them, so the repro parts market doesn't find it financially viable to make repro parts. There are some parts - namely weatherstripping and bumper fillers - that are available, but there are no other body or trim parts being reproduced. You can find N.O.S. parts on ebay but that is obviously hit or miss. Good luck.
