1967 Cutlass....... another project I didn't need.

[YELLAHEEP]

Saw this languishing on Craigslist at some guy's little independent salvage yard for 8+ months on and off. Had been asking way too much.

Decided to go look at it as I was gonna be at the LKQ nearby anyway.

The guy took my low-ball offer, said it was finally time to let it go.

It's 99% complete, un-altered. The 330 V8 looks like it'll run with fresh gas, a tune up and carb cleaning. Trans worked when parked, hoping 15 years of sitting didn't destroy it. Gas tank is FUNKY and somehow got crushed upward so I may just buy a reproduction tank, easy swap out.

Found a set of Olds Rally wheels with new tires for cheap..... The ad listed them as 15's but when I went to buy them, there were 2 15's and 2 14's. They look good on the car.

I'll get it running, see if it'll move under it's own power then send it off to become someone else's project.

Still has all 4 "T-3" headlights.

Wheels & tires mounted.

Could be fun to do a "barn find" NASCAR look to it........

Yup, you don't need that.

Wheels cleaned up the look a lot.

Truer words never spoken. She gets me.

Looks much better off the trailer.......

A face only yer momma could love....... ugh.

1966 front ends look way better. The marker lights / turn signals between the headlights is just an odd look, should be in the bumper. None the less, it's a cool looking car.

I won't...... but maybe it's next owner will. Would be so cool!

 

[DutchVDub]

What are you trying to get out of the olds? Did you get it running?

 

[riverfever]

Love the color just like it is.

 

[YELLAHEEP]

Haven't touched it. Still pre-title right now.

 

[DutchVDub]

Well PM me a price and how difficult the title would potentially be. I know some people looking for something like this and I'll pass it on.
