New from Long Island

I recently purchased a 1948 Olds 98 that needs Love. The East coast has taken it's toll on the lower sheet metal so I have some work ahead. The car is a 2-door coupe. I guess some refer to this as a Sedanette? I really love the lines on this car and felt it was worth saving. I know sheet metal will be a tough thing to find, I need doors, rockers, and one rear fender for anyone that can send me in the right direction. Thanks, Doug

DTbass, welcome aboard.

Love to see some pictures when you can. About your sheet metal, you might scroll down to the vintage forum, there are a few 46 48 guys that are trying to get together and share parts and problems...Lost in the fifties ...Tedd

Welcome, good luck with your project. The Oldsmobile show is coming up in May, probably get some good info there too.
