Talking I'm new

to classic oldsmobile.com, but not the vBulletin program, or forums in general. I figure I can get intelligent responses about my car here, and not the general idiocy I seem to get everywhere else.

my car
is a 1976 Oldsmobile Cutlass supreme station wagon that I pulled off of craigslist for 1500 bucks, it's my first car. it has the 455, turbo 400, and a 10 bolt rear end that's geared fairly high (don't know the exact ratio), 3 rows of seats, 103,XXX miles, and is all pretty much stock. it's a Texas car, so it doesn't have any rust.
I have a bunch of pictures from other forums, so I will try to post all the good ones.

EDIT: turns out spoiler wraps don't work, and images turn out massive

Welcome aboard. I do believe this car belonged to a member here. You should try this board also. It specializes in 73-77's.

I got it on craigslist, and the guy seemed to be an oldsmobile dude...also, he e-mailed me after I bought it with a link here, but I only found that when I recovered my email, to make my account here. small world

Hi Todd. Glad the wagon is working out.
All those panels need to be pulled and tracks
cleaned and greased. The ole boy I got it from
hauled horses from Lubbock to New Mexico...
Hense the tranny cooler. I don't have a lot of history on the
cruiser, but I am glad you made to the forum, Adam.
