Newbie from Texas

Wow! What a great site. Been perusing for years but finally registered. Been a Olds 442 fan for years growing up with guys that had the W30s and Rally 350s. Great cars! Too bad GM strayed from the quality and commitment Olds now Pontiac...are others on the way out? Many many thanks to the host for the web space and for the knowledgeable contributors. Enjoy the Ride!!

Welcome to CO, BR549, from another Dallas, Texan! Are you dating yourself with that really old phone number from a popular TV show years ago? LOL!

Gents,
Thanks for the warm welcome. Yes Aron the reference is a tribute to old phone # from what was it Hee Haw. I guess I did date myself. Goofy show but entertaining...beats some of the stinch that is on the tube today. Back to topic...442s.

Welcome

Welcome aboard

Yes, His name was Junior Samples and he was from right up the road from me, Cumming, Georgia.

The story is............... He caught a World Record Largemouth Bass but he ate it.

Talking Welcome to CO

You Texan's are having a population explosion on CO. Must be something in the water down there.

Hee Haw was a great show, sure had some good lookin gals too. the cast was great including Buck Owens, Roy Clark, Grampa Jones, Junior, Goober, Mini Pearl with her HOWDY,The Hager twins and many others.

Now lets see some pictures of you 442
