New to the party from NJ.
Hello,

I just joined this forum and I am looking forward to sharing stories and knowledge with all the fine folks here.

I will be enjoying my "new" 1965 Cutlass 330/315 Jetaway in a few weeks.

Thanks for reading!

Welcome...I tried, and failed, at organizing a NJ Olds picnic last summer and plan to try again this year...many "it's too hot in August" comments and i only got about 6 confirmed...so it never happened.

I will aim for June this year.

The plan was a picnic area in the Watchung Reservation near Rt 78. Liberty State Park was another possibility.

Wanted something convenient for NNJ, CNJ and maybe eastern PA. About 20 "maybes" didn't pan out.

I sure hope that it happens this year. It would be a great time.

Will do...pictures will be posted!

Question...how readily available are parts for a '65 Cutlass? New or used?

Thanks!
