Hello

Joined a while back, but just now posting. I was raised in an Olds family and have had the Olds fever since I was little. I had a 1970 Cutlass S in high school some years ago. I recently found one almost identical to the one I had and have begun to restore it. It is in pretty solid shape and I will be able to enjoy it while I work on the restoration.

Welcome to the site. Share what you are doing with the car when you have the chance. We like pics too.

More info

The car is your basic S right now. It has factory 350 with A/C, PS, tilt and cruise. I want to stay with the factory look, but I would like to warm it up near W-31 performance and add the OAI hood. The car was originally Sherwood green with a white hardtop. The previous owner repainted it all a different green. The paint was a cheap job, but looks ok from a few steps back. I would like to put it back to Sherwood green and possibly the white painted top. Not sure how many where painted that combination, but I don't recall seeing any. Here are a couple pics.

Welcome to the site. Nice looking car. I like the two tone paint, its different and set your car apart when done. Lots of information in the small bllock forum to help with your warm over plus there are a number of guys who will give you good answers to any questions that you have. Keep us posted on your progress
