1970 Cutlass Supreme 350

Hello,

my name is Matt and I just bought a 1970 Cutlass Supreme 350 with TH350.

I am complete newbie to vintage cars and would appreciate any recommendation or guidance. I already ordered all the books and materials available and do plan to do as much repairs and maintenance on my own as possible.

Thanks

Matt

I think the best advise to give anyone restoring a car is this: if you plan to sell it everything you do can add or subtract from the value of the car. So all you do should keep that in mind. If you plan to drive and enjoy it how you want then: do what ever you want it is your car.

Wish you the best on this have fun with it.

Larry

Buy a factory printing of the chassis manual, NOT a re-print. The factory version uses color wheb printing electrical schematics ,the reprint is black and white.
