Hey gang, just joined. Looks like you've got a nice site starting here Brando. Hopefully it keeps up and becomes the 3rd major Olds site, as we can't have too many of them.
About me: I'm from West Michigan, 29 years old, and married. My first car was an '81 Mercury Zephyr, then an '84 Thunderbird, '90 Cougar, and finally my first Olds, a '96 Cutlass supreme. We bought our first "fun car" this May, a 1968 Cutlass convertible. I'm pretty new to cars (working on them, but have always loved the old muscle) as I didn't work on them much with my dad (boy do I regret that). but I learn quickly, and plan to continue soaking up any knowledge I can, and hopefully don't wreck my car in the process :shock:
A little about my baby: She was originally Jade Gold (dark green) with gold interior and top. A little evidence shows she was also blue at one time, but is now red. She has black interior and a white top. The top is pretty tired, but the body and interior was partly restored a few years ago, so the rest looks pretty good. She's powered by a smog 455 ('74 with J heads), but still can lay good rubber. No plans for her yet, as nothing much needs attention, but hopefully she'll get a new top before long.

Thanks for the complement on the site. I started this site thinking it was the only Oldsmobile Forum out there....guess I was wrong :lol:
Welcome to The Oldsmobile Connection, enjoy your stay.

That's a very nice car you have there, love the convertibles. Looks like yours just rolled out of the factory! =P~

| Hey Grimm, I see you found your way here. The other olds sites he's talking about is realoldspower.com and don't forget about 442.com, but they arn't nearly as great as it used to be, check out http://www.1970-442.com/bbs/ they could always use more people |

| Forgot about 442.com. Now that it's actually open again, that should be a good site too. |
