Big Olds's Paint Debute BBQ

Looks great Denise! Your red wheels are killing me!

Those caps rule.

 

He looks absolutely stunning Denise - quite a change from the yellow raincoat/roadtrip photos. Congratulations!!

I can't even imagine ever having a car that shinny. Earl Sheib, (and everyone else who contributed) you done one helluva job!

 

Denise, after seeing that Cad cap held up there, it'd be hard for me to run anything else.

Big Olds looks great!!!! But when you consider how many great and talented folks were involved, I knew he would look awesome.

You all rock. Congratulations.

Coming from you, that's a helluva compliment Thanks, cleatus.


HRLC is givin' me WAY too much credit. I was only a part of the equation.
It was cool when she got here Thursday night and saw it for the first time.....it's one of the few(maybe only) times I ever made a woman cry with GOOD end result

 

I remember how the body gaps were, you did an outstanding job on the fit and finish Mike.

I can see the future post now "Custom Car builder Spotlight: VOLUNTEER AUTO BODY"

(Seeing Big Olds without the grille, he's like Grandpa Olds without his dentures )

 

I like it better that my red version! When my dad finaly gets tired of his 60 Imperial, I'm driving it to TN, and it'll be painted the same color.

pic found on web of another 60Imp, with chrome wheels and HRLC Lavender mist grape...purple....

 

Well...now I really,really hate we missed the big party ......but we look forward to hanging out with you and Roadstar again in the future! ( HRR-Bowling Green?)

 

Lookin fabulous....I can't wait to see him in person!!.....Kudos to E.S. and the southern bunch....you guys dun good...reeeeel GOOD!!!! How many gallons did you use...(milk, not paint) to wash down all the cookies???

 

Denise --

Looks DAMN fine for a big ugly tank!

You and the crew done good -- can't wait to see the Olds in person this summer.

Make sure Earl has plenty of touch-up paint. As much as you drive the thing you'll need it, and that beats hell out of it being a garage queen!

Cheers,

Steve.

 

killer!

 

Congratulations! Another HAMB classic. Gorgeous.

Hell YES!

Nice job all.


Scotch~!

 

Congrats, Denise, looks real good! Can't wait to see it in person!
kudos to all the hard workers on the job as well (including HRLC!)
Earl, great job!

 

Most people don't realize all the hours of hard work that goes into a transformation like that. You girl have some very special friends there.
The car looks beautiful, can't wait to see the top....
What color is it going to be?
I vote for the Caddy caps too. Great work everyone! PJ

 

I like it! I like it alot!

If you can post a picture of the hub caps you are looking for, there is an old man a few miles from me who has tons for sale. I can stop by and look to see if he has what you a looking for.

 

That's very sweet of you, thanks! Any of these I think would look awesome on "Mr" Big Olds.

White vinyl but you'll probley never see it, unless it's raining.

 

the progress makes me smile.

 

Big olds looks great in paint, I'm digging the caddy caps on her

 

Denise, I think I have a set of the last ones, I will see what kind of shape they are in, if they are decent, they are yours!

 

I actually have a set of those in the rafters too, but I know two of them are way to beatup for Big Olds’s new image. I'll get them out to see if you'll like them on the car.

 

Well Gus, maybe between the 2 of us we can come up with a set. Ha Ha Ha

Don't forget the one for the spare!

 

You both are such sweethearts! ...... I see cookies in your futures .......or beers

 

Wow Denise. Your car looks spectacular. I really dig the WWW's and red wheels. It gives it a look that ive never really seen before and i love it. Great work Denise, and Mike, and Rudy and everyone else who helped!

Nick

 

What a transformation! A just reward for a fine lady.

Look forward to seeing it at HRR.

"Purple Haze" it is.

 

Had a few friends show up right as I got home from work today. Two, just so they could "brag" about being the first GMB's to see Big Olds in Michigan. The other bearing gifts.....one large pizza and some OLDSMOBILE CAPS!!!

I've got the greatest buds in the world!! THANKS BEATNIK!
