Thanks y'all it's a real solid car with only minor rust and is only missing one small trim cap on the lower pass qtr. My little brother had a '64 jetstar88 when we were kids so i thought it would be cool to resto it together

Welcome Home!

Hey Kid64: My neck hurts. This pic might just fix things.

Welcome to the Classic Oldsmobile Forum. There's lots of great information and good people here to offer assistance to you in your restoration!

What kind of work are you and your brother planning to do to your car?
