Just bought this 70 Cutlass. Time for a stripdown and visit to the bodyshop to start things off.

Would make a nice 442 clone, hopefully 22's will fit with it being lowered.

Your right about the lowering. I plan on putting them on and seeing how much room I have left to play with. I dont want them stuffed up into the wheel wells. I just want a nice pro touring look.

Welcome to CO, read about Richard's (Gearheads78) project on his Cutlass, good example of pro-touring work.

Welcome to Co

Have fun with the restore. Tell your wife that its for her that you doing this. She is a pretty as a teenager and your going to romance her like one in you restored car. Also doesn't hurt to send her to a spa for a couple days too
