Damn, Jim....
Is she back on the road yet?
I might have to ride in yours if I don't find a cheap parts car to finish mine with this month lol.
You should stop by for a beer with it next time you're out this way again.

When I first got the car I wanted it to be a stick. I found that in order to do that you have to change the crank. I found a crank and I then found a complete M20 4 speed and stored it until I could do the swap. I figured as long as I'm doing that I might as well do the motor, It now has Edelbrock intake, heads, cam. Holley, MSD, Etc. Besides hanging the clutch pedal, getting a new driveshaft, clutch, shifter, and countless other things I can't even remember, the car is a Freakin' blast to drive. Jeremy I may see you at AJs in New lenox on a Sunday eve sometime. And yes the car is back on the road. Yeah!

Yes, radiator hose. And do I feel stupid, as often as I recommend Fusick to people, have a catalog at home myself, and have used them before; I completely forgot to check them. Thanks!

I honestly don't know for a fact what year it is. I have heard several different answers as well. Your H/O is my favorite Olds.
