ScottM from Upstate NY

Just joined the forum but not new to Oldsmobiles. I've had a 68 Cutlass convert since 2001. Also had 442s's and an H/O at one point (all 68's). The convert is a restomod in progress. Suspension has been updated, disk brakes on the front and some bigger wheels tires. Hoping to do a fuel injected 455 or LS swap this spring (currently running a 455/th400 combo but its tired) and adding the rear disks.

Nice!

Sharp Ride! That was the original color of my current 442 in the signature below. I like the color, but the car came to me the color that is is now.

I'm in Clifton Park - will update my location in my profile. Looking forward to spring/summer to get the car out. Didn't take it many places last year - spent most of summer with a 73 Camaro protour car. It was fun but not what I really wanted so its on its way to South Dakota to its new owner. Time to focus on Oldsmobiles!
