    yea they cut out the trans tunnel, its ok to cut in some cases, but not if your a bunch of redneck retards like these guys were, they would have never gotten this to work. Im really thinking about taking a day next week and just bustin out all the body work and getting it into primer.

    Worked in a wrecking yard onec, they had an all originale 67 Lincon with the suicide doors. Told the boss I wanted it, and he crushed it complete. said it was worth more crushed. It ran, I would have given him 2-3 grand with out a` problem. Nice ride have fun.

    nothing avail for these cars, all me. the rot is minor in the trunk to repair, I plan on patching the holes then POR15 coating the inside of the trunk and the underside as well, I plan on using alot of POR15 on this car, as I want it to last the rest of my life, however short it may end up. The hood is small and only about 30lbs, the trunk is a good 75 lbs though

    im not into the suede paint on these cars, mine will be more long the lines of a 60's style custom, 2 tone with big metal flake and the white walls, the astros make it near a 70s custom, but they just plain out rule in the looks dept, I dont think I can convince my GF to take pics with the car, but im sure she'll get naked soon or later in the back seat....buahahhahaha!

    get me some info on this one please! like all about it! thats a 1961, its the only one that was in the pics that I could use parts off of the rest are 65 and newer

    I might be interested in the front rear bupers, and the whole grill assy if PA wasnt so far away I might say the whole drivetrain but thats a it much.


    I know one thing I need! for sure! the ignition switch in the dash, and if there is a key for it even better! but O well if there isnt, plus the key cyl for the trunk as well if its there.

    Very nice looking car. I too love the BIG cars. I purchased a 1965 Oldsmobile back in January of '07. Its all original with just over 28000 miles and papers to prove it. Its the only year they came with the 425 Ultra High Compression big block. Heres some pics of it:






    Now, i don't plan to bag or lower it like you do, but i plan to restore it completely...sooner or later. It runs like brand new and even (after sitting for 30 year with 1/4th tank of gas) the gas tank was rust free. There is about a 1/4" rust gap around the back window and some rust in the passenger quarter panel, but thats it.
