Hello folks, My name is Jeff Rochowiak (Roach) and I'm from just outside of Detroit. My whole family has been into muscle cars & streetrods and that includes aunts, uncles, cousins, brothers, father, etc... Been to a million car shows and drag races so I'm not car nut rookie. I have a wonderful family who keeps me out of the garage more time than I'd like. Ya know, kids, sports... I have a 68 442 that I cruiz and race. It's now a shell because she needs some cosmetic work. I need her to look as good as she runs. I also just picked up a 39 Olds 2dr Sedan stocker. This is for my other mood. I figure this might be the best place to educate myself in turning the 39 into a traditional cruizer. I'm thinking first generation Olds mill (of course), bring it way down (sits like a school bus), fat whites etc etc... By the way, looking for an Olds engine (preferably complete) in the Motorcity area. 394,371,324,303. Thanx again.
Welcome from Yucaipa, Ca. I've always been partial to Olds engines. Contact fellow member Chopped50ford, I believe he may have or know of a 303 Olds engine for sale. He is located here in socal but don't worry, thats what freight companies are for.
