Hello,

Just found this forum and wanted to join. I have an '84 Hurst. I bought a few years back and am in the middle of a complete restoration (or trying). This Ohio environment doesn't treat our cars very well.

I'm probably younger than most, and realize that most of you have probably forgotten more about cars than I'll ever know. Wanted to join a community of Oldsmobile folks to talk to and get help from people that know about this specific brand, as well as hopefully learn a thing or two.

Oh, and if anyone has info on finding good parts, do tell. I'm sure this is the place for that.

Thanks

I was an '83 H/O owner for 20+ years. It was a lot of fun. I always enjoyed how people would turn and look as I'd drive by. Your '84 is even more rare. Good luck on the restoration.

Welcome to CO. I bet after several years of restoration work, you won't be driving it in the winter. Enjoy your project!
