Newbie From So Cal

Hey everyone, thanks for allowing me to be part of this forum. I can't wait to meet you guys. Anyways we (my brothers and I) bought my dad a 1970 oldsmobile delta 88 royale as a gift because when he was young and he first came to the states he had one but he had to sell it. He always told stories of his delta so we thought it would be a great idea to buy him one. He's not very computer savvy so i'll be doing the forums stuff for him. The delta has a 455 rocket with a two barrel carburetor, we are planning to change the carb soon. Anyways, nice meeting you guys and glad to be a part of this forum. My dad thanks you guys too.
