1961 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 2 door

I just purchased my Olds yesterday and looking forward to chatting with owners of these cars. I have lots to learn.

Welcome to the site csjrishere, 61's are cool cars. You will find others on the site who have similar cars and can help you with any questions that you have.

Well the trans rebuild took most of the budget for a while. I know I want to get the roof painted and order some new fabric for the seats. I am just gonna drive it for now.

Any ideas?

She looks cool! Just drive and enjoy for a while. The "fix-it" plan will come to you once you get to know her quirks.
