Hey.

Hello fellow Olds nuts. My name is Chris, I'm out in northern AZ. I currently only have one Olds, a 67 Toro. Really it may be counted as 1/2 of one since the other half has rusted away. I just got it for parts really. I did used to have a 72 442, 455, OAI but not W-30. Bench with column auto. It was a really nice car but you know the old family needs are more important routine. I'm just an old car nut that likes the "BOP" family.

Welcome to CO,

At least you have the front half which includes the engine and drive train.

Well half a car may have been a bit of an exageration. It is from Ill. then sat with the floor on the ground in the shade in AZ. for about 20+ years. It really took its toll. Since I couldn't easily get to the rear axle I hooked two hooks from the winch to the outer bumper brackets, the bumper was rusted through anyway. The bumper, floor, rear frame rails and gas tank came out with no effort allmost in one peice, the car didn't move. The trunk load of Raccoon crap didn't help. Later I removed the front seat by simply lifting it out, junks of floor still attatched. I'm surprised it has stayed together this long. I will get a couple of pics soon, just have to figure how to post them.
