Description: Just finished Retr0briting my A500, didn't know what the h$@% I was doing, still think it turned out okay though. The dark gray buttons on the left edge look a little off in this pic, but that's due to the camera flash. On the Miggy they look great!

Well, I don't have any Oldsobiles myself but admire those '50s-'70s models. I'm deeply U.S.GM guy, I drive '96 Roadmaster (LT-1 V8), my wife '97 Riviera (supercharged). I also dig older cars, so have few projects, such as '80 El Camino and '80 Trans AM. Here I made some work on her Buick---> http://rivperformance.editboard.com/t9952-finnish-ok-canadian-originally-97-riviera-resurrection |
| Oldsmobile_Mike Posts:6105 | April 18, 2013, 05:25:19 PM I used to have three Oldsmobiles - a '70, '76, and '79. But the '70, that was my baby. 455 V8, convertible, boy that thing was such a wreck, the hydraulic lines for raising and lowering the top would leak and spray hydraulic fluid out over the car if you tried to operate it, so I just kept the top down and kept her in a garage. I'd drive that thing around in January with no top, 100mph, just the heat off that big engine to keep me warm... ah those were the days.  Sadly I sold the last of my classic cars a few years ago (my '72 Buick Electra made it to Germany for a full frame-off restoration, it's cruising the autobahn these days!) and now drive a Chevy pickup. More practical for what I need to do, but I might still pick up another Oldsmobile someday!  |
