Hi all,

Located in Central Oregon here. Currently have a 1993 Acheiva SCX W-41 (white) that I will be working on soon to get it restored after it has sat outside for years. The wife and I were the original owners, but it had no garage .

Also previously owned a 1971 442 convertible with w-25 hood. Bought it in 1983 and sold it in 1995 to a gentleman in Portland, OR and considering looking to see if I can find it again. It was red with black top and interior. Had a 1970 350 in it at the time I bought it.

Sound familiar to anyone out there?

Where abouts in central Oregon? I grew up in North Bend, out on the coast. My car came from the then Olds dealership in Coos Bay in March 1969. There are lots of Oregonians on this site! Welcome aboard and enjoy!

Welcome

X2 on the pics. There is always a starting point. Don't think for a minute it is not worth documenting. You will be glad you did later.

Located about 20 miles northwest of Redmond, OR on Crooked River Ranch.

Pictures of 71 442 later today!

Acheiva is under wraps for now until the dang snow stops flying! Believe it or not in all the years we have owned her, I don't think we have any pictures. Hey, it was just a car then, right? Now it is something totally different.

Welcome to the forum! At first, I was thinking...a '93? But then I rememebered it's 2014 so that's already over 20 years old! Holy cow! I had a '92 Achieva SC (coupe) in black on gray that I loved. It was fully loaded with the V6 and even had the electronic adjustable suspension which I always thought was an awesome option. That car was really quick. I sold it to my brother who got rear-ended in it shortly thereafter and it was totalled.

Let's see some pics of your SCX.

71 442 Convertible

This is the 71 442 Convertible I had for many years and sold in 1995.


The Acheiva pics will be coming once we uncover it.
