re olds

i am a glutton for punishment
however i am realistic on what will get done(still have other projects, 4 other classics) hence i will be getting rid of the 71 models shortly. My only issue is that
the market over here in oz is very limited, and when i did advertise them once before, the keyboard warriors were out in force thinking they know everything
thanks for the great welcome
cheers

Damn ! I didn't even know Olds existed down under, what a score ! Why can't I find a treasure like that up here in the great white north of Canada. From the looks of the pictures I'd say the 70 looks to be the closest to becoming a car that could be driven the soonest if desired. Good luck man ya got your work cut out for you.

Re olds

Yes white 1970 would be the easiest
it started up first time with a good battery and new fuel not bad for a car sitting since 2010, also blew no smoke and shifted fine,no brakes though as a line has been broken

Welcome!
Here is hoping you make the street scape a little more interesting with those beautiful old Oldsmobiles!
What state are you from?
