Newbie

Hello I am a Newbie. I have a 1973 Olds Cutlass that is made into a pickup truck. I know you are all scratching your heads, but it is kinda cool. My stepmother bought the car new in Florida in 1973, she married my dad a couple of years later and moved to California. The car developed some rust in the rear window and my dad had a friend who owned a body shop in town and my father did some electrical work in the body shop in exchange the body shop made the car into a pickup. My father drove the car for a couple years then crashed it and gave it to me for my first car. I fixed it and drove it for years. The car has been sitting for years but now I am bringing it back to life.
I have a lot of spare parts that I would like to sell so if anyone is interested let me know. This forum thing is new to me so bear with me it might take me a little while to get it down

I am still trying to figure out this forum thing, bear with me. I did attach a couple of pics, were you able to see them. When I was in high school this car was really nice, now I am just trying to get it back together again.

Yeah it is a little different. Sometimes you get that is really cool and other times you get that is kind of weird.
