Just want to say hello to the Technical staff and poster's here.

I have a 1986 Oldsmobile 98 Regency Brougham I am rebuilding to running condition. I will be here asking for your help and advice. Hope this site is more busy than www.Oldsmobileforums.com or AutomotveForums.com
Seems like although my car is discussed on these pages, they don't really reply back to help out member's in a timely manner. Makes me feel stranded. I hope I will not find this situation here.

Hi! Nice to meet you!

Great car you have. In fact, that particular year and model you have, was my very first Oldsmobile, I ever owned. I sometimes had wished I had the knowledge and experience to haven taken better care of it back then. The one I have now is like a second chance for me to do things right.

I hope you enjoy this great forum. :)

Hi CarguyBob, hello everyone,

Welcome to TOC.

It seems, I missed this one. Might be because it did not ask a question, or present a problem, about "maintenance"?

Ask away.

Are you looking for quality or quantity? Not easy to find both in one place. Doesn't look like much of either here. Not too friendly either.

Quote:
........ Seems like although my car is discussed on these pages ........

Many discussions about other cars can be more helpful than you can imagine. Most of the knowledge I use here, came from working on a variety of other makes and models, including (but not limited to) the other GMs, Ford, and Mopar. Oh, and next to nothing came from the internet.

Quote:

Define timely manner. Do you expect hundreds of experts to be viewing that page, in anticipation of your next post? If so, is it possible they missed it because you posted in the wrong forum? Or a thread hijack?

If everything works as it should, the person with the answer will respond when he sees the question, and those without the answer will not. If you want instant answers, contact a GM dealer.

Did you feel stranded before you had the internet?

Your stay here, will be what you choose to make it.

Regards, Norm

Hi!

Welcome to TOC! You may not get instant answers, but rest assured, you will get answers to your questions. This forum has a fair amount of traffic, but not a huge population.

Enjoy your stay!

Decided to move this to 'Off Topic Lounge' since there was already a thread similar in 'introduction'
