Hi from Sweden olds 98 -1965

Well, i make a long history short. For 6 years ago i started to restore a Mustang convert -66 and have used it really much 5 year, now it is time to grow up and the pony is sold and have bought an Oldsmobile 98 convertible from 1965. (It is little bigger then the pony ). There is a few things on this car i must take care of so i hope i can have some advice here.
Thanks in advantage
Leif

You should have kept Pony and put it in the trunk of the 98.

Welcome - though I am new here myself as well. I lived in Nykoping for a year, 1992, And I have 4 Saabs parked in my driveway at the moment :-) I was noting the other day that none of my 5 cars have the ignition on the steering column, so adding the 66 Cutlass doesn't feel strange in that way. I don't have a center console, so of course, the key would just go in the center of the dash.

I'm just curious about this kind of a car being found in Sweden. How does a 1965 98 make its way to Sweden? Has it been there all its life? Looks like a nice car.

There is a member from Stockholm who also has a 65 Oldsmobile. His car is a 1965 Cutlass. Maybe you are located in the same area of Sweden?
