New from Tennessee

Hello everyone, new to the forum. I live in a small town just south of Nashville. I have a 1974 H/O W-30 455 which my grandmother bought new, it was passed down to my dad and then to me. The restoration is almost complete except for the stripes and the frount bumper needs some work. The engine was bored .40 and rebuilt with high compression pistons, Comp Cams 280H cam and the factory Ka heads were worked by the machine shop for max flow. Engine also has Performer intake and Holley Street Avenger carb. I have all the factory engine parts if I ever want to put it back stock... I posted pic's of the car in my album in the user cp. My next project well be a 1968 Cutlass S... I hope to learn alot from this forum and I enjoy reading all the posts.

Hello and welcome to the forum. I live in Franklin, TN, so we are probably not that far apart. Check out the website of our local Olds club.
