Talking New to the site, not the machine.

Well i finally thought the other day that maybe there was a classic oldsmobile forum...I was right!!. aqs soon as I saw it I signed up. now a little about me and olds.
my first car and oldsmobile was a 96 cutlass supreme 3.4 DOHC. I bought it from my dad at 12 years old and dumped what ever money I was making into it. I kept that car a little under a year.
My second and favorite old was my1973 oldsmoblie 98 regency with "leather" and the 455 rocket. I had actually traded my dad the 96 for the 73. My dad bought it from an older woman for 100 bucks, he got it running with a match stick and a nail file. Im sure you all know what that was for. I kept the car until 2006, I had to sell it because I had no time to fix it the stupid nylon wore off of the cam sprocket and I would not stay in time.
Countless cars later I had come across a 1976 fiat spyder that I traded for my last oldsmobile. It was a 1976 98 regency Tiffany & Co. It had the solid black interior with the pillow top seats and had some really nice exclusive Tiffany embroidery on the seats. that car didnt last though. the previous owner had it sitting for about 5 years, sooo the seals in the fuel pump went bad, filld the crank case with gas and locked it up. I havent had an oldsmobile since 2008, but I am at a point were im working a fantastic job and Im am looking for another 73 98 regency. I know there is one posted on the forums in NC but thats to far away. If anybody has any leads in the eastern TN area please let me know.
