Welcome. I just joined myself a couple of weeks ago. I have a '67 442 convertible that I have started a restoration on. Looking for front fenders and inner fenders right now. Where in Iowa are you located? I am in the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri.

Cool

Hi guys. I also live in the Midwest (St. Louis, MO). There was a big Olds event at the Lake of the Ozarks this summer; I hope to participate next year.

And, as far as availability of parts - sounds good to me.

Sounds like a great find! Unfortunately I have sold my last set of nice doors (I will keep looking)Sheet metal is getting Very hard to find here in midwest,If it wasnt rusted it was used up in circle track cars.What color is your 87?I just sold a Very Nice Teal Blue Metallic power sunroof car and already regret it!

$500 bucks is some kind of deal. All I can say is get all the documentation you can on the car and try to keep it as original as possible and it would be worth considerably more. Sounds like it's going to be a great investment

Welcome to CO Olds24, good to have more members with the more recent year models. We are kind of sparse on Bavada and Aurora owners.
