    Finally! I've been waitin' to get my hands on this for almost two months, and it's finally here. I could pee my pants I'm so happy.

    This thing is as close to rust free as I could ever hope for. It's got 3 areas with MINOR surface rust, and two minor dents to take care of, and that's it. Since I've always lived in the rust belt, I've never had an old car that was so solid. I'm lovin' it!!!

    It's not without problems though. Gotta go thru the drivetrain (gotta good motor comin' this week), the third member is in the trunk, needs a new interior...blah blah blah. It'll keep me busy this winter!

    Anudder 394. Someday I may switch one of my Olds' over to a 455 so I can have the better ******, but not yet. The funny thing about this engine is that the old owners kids tore the engine down to the short block, when all that was "wrong" with it was that the coil was disconnected so those kids wouldn't drive it. Doh! Oh well...at least everything they took off is with the car, so I'll stash it for a later rebuild.

    My other '62 is givin' me funny looks though...I think she's jealous.
