Hello fellow Olds Fans!

Well, I have just rejoined the family. My first car was a 1982 Cutlass Supreme. I drove it until the wheels fell off. I then purchased a 1988 Cutlass Supreme Classic in 1990. Drove it until 1996 and then purchased a new Monte Carlo. Then in 1997 purchased a 1984 Cutlass Supreme as a second car and drove it for a few years until we started having a family and needed a more practical car. So, I have not had an Oldsmobile for about ten years until I bought one on Wednesday. I found a 1988 Cutlass Supreme Classic in Florida with 46000 miles. I will have to figure out how to post a picture or two so you can see it.

Wow. I wish I had magical powers like that!

I'd have been happy just to be able to purchase a 2004 Cutlass in 2004, let alone 7 years early. Especially since the last year for the Cutlass was 1999.

I presume you mean this the other way around? In 2004, you purchased a '97 Cutlass?

Great story. Hope everythings stable on the home front with the wife and family. Looking forward to the pics and, as Jaunty already pointed out, time travel. Nice to have you aboard.

1982, 1984, 1988 - all basically the same car. That it on your avatar? Yup, must be. I just stole this pic from you so everyone could see it full size.

That is the car. It came from the factory with the wire wheels on it. I have a set of four. I need to start the search now for 4 factory 14" steel rims.

Just put up an album!

Good morning. I just put up a handful of pictures. I hope the delivery of the car beats the snow that is forecasted!

Nice-looking car.

But you live in Erie, Pennsylvania. Isn't snow ALWAYS in the forecast for you? Even in mid-July?
