Hey folks-
Excited to be part of this forum. Im here to learn, see some cool rides and hopefully link up with Olds guys near me and beyond. My dad had a 1969 cutlass hardtop when I was a kid. I remember how happy he used to be when he’d step on the gas with a heavy foot evrry now and then. And he was a grumpy fukk. So as a kid, to see my dad smile was a big thing. I knew one day I want to have one. But of course I had to get the 69 442 convertible to one-up my pops. It’s a 3 speed auto with a TH-400, 455 bbo from a 71. Factory AC, PS, front disc brakes. The motor build seems to be..ehh, not too impressive. It’s newly rebuilt but has a Fitech EFI and J heads. I already got the Holley Sniper EFI for the new build.
Below is the pic from the ad. My pics to come soon.

 

Welcome to the site, nice ride.

 

hey thanks for the welcome. Looking forward to being on here.

 

Welcome from another Northern California member. Good lookin ride..... Lost in the fifties ...Tedd

 

thanks Tedd. Its hard to focus on your ride with everything else going on in that pic

 

It's a distraction I can put up with. I'm near Chico if you are ever in the area, I'm always good for a beer, coffee or soft drink with Oldsmobile conversion.... Tedd

 

Welcome from SF Bay Area!!

 

Now thats what I’m talking about! What part of the Hwy 1 coast was that pic taken from?! Hope to link up or chat with you some time. DM me on a hot sunny day for a drive along the water some time.

 

I'm in Manteca, Ca. not sure where you live. I have just what you need is a set Ga heads ready to go on that 455 to pick it up a bunch. The J hears are JUNK even rebuilt so here I am if you need them. I don't quote price on this site but send a PM message if interested in them. Or we can talk.

PS
you might even join the Nor Cal Olds Club if you want ask me

Hey thanks Gene! It’s actually a repaint of the factory color, Crimson. I’m in Daly City. Nice to know there are plenty of locals on here.

It was taken by the lighthouse, near Half Moon Bay, We should definitely go for a drive.
My favorite route is Hwy1 to Santa Cruz, then through the forest pass Boulder Creek to Skyline blvd back to 92. A lot of cars out in the mountains on weekends.

 

yup! That Lighthouse is Pigeon Point! I fish from my kayak there! Lots of nice fish there. But lots of sharks too!

 

Hello from Redding, CA. We bought our olds in Oakland in 92 and used to cruise over to half moon bay then go south to pescadero beach. 👍

 

Damn you guys are all around me. I'm about 40 minutes north of sacramento in wheatland. Oh and welcome!

 

Nice, I’m in the Fremont/Hayward area.

Gene

 

Wheatland has or should I say use to have a good car show I would frequent most every year. Do they still or will have one this year? Tedd

 

i don't remember seeing it happen last year.
