Welcome...you should post a location so those with potential projects (like me) can let you know.


Depending on how original you want your car to be, you can consider aftermarket conversion kits and updated 5 speed transmissions...

Welcome to CO

our cars for sale and cars wanted section will help you find one. The members here have reputations that can be checked by looking at their past posts and threads or just asking other members. Oldsmobilecentral is another tool. You can get on there and set up automatic emails to you when the car your looking for is added to that site. I see by the post above you already found someone with a project you may be interested in.

Thanks for the advice. I edited the post . I am located in Chicago. I thought the conversion kit was extremely expensive so I sought after manual only.

Thanks for the advice! I will look in the classified section and also set up a WTB post. I will check the other source as well.
