Hello there, my name is Riley, I am 19 years old, and am an apprentice mechanic from Thunder Bay, Ontario. Ive had my license since I was 16, and able to drive by myself since 17. My first car was a 95 Cutlass Sedan 3.1, in medium adriatic blue, with matching blue cloth interior.



About 8 months later I purchased a 98 Bravada 4.3 AWD, with tan leather interior, and in a color I can only describe as Chocolate Milk.



I then went on to purchase an 02 Bravada 4.2 in Light pewter metallic, fully loaded, and am still driving that.



Last fall however, I also purchased a 1974 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme at auction. It is a 350 4bbl, 2 door, vinyl top, seems to be all original except maybe a repaint.


Odometer reads 88x miles I believe. I plan to fix it up with tasteful modifications, but nothing too over the top to make myself a nice cruising car. Anybody who knows anything about these cars is more than welcome to introduce themselves, as info on these particular years is hard to come by...

Thanks for reading, Riley

Welcome to the site, it's great to get more young people interested. Your pictures did not come through. There is plenty of info to read and a lot is related to your powertrain. If you have any question there are plenty of people here that can answer.
