I was in 2nd grade when this came out and a neighbor had one. One day I missed the bus and he was on his way to work and saw me...said...You missed the bus? I said...Yea.. He said get in!

That car was awesome!

Notice the cool speedometer...like a bathroom scale...he got up to about 100..I was watching the speedo and grinning ear to ear!!!

Look at the size of the gas pedal!

I really really like how that car looks. Very classic.

That 425 cu in engine was music to my ears...just planted you back.

Hey, I was excited as a 7 year old kid to have rode in it.

Just fond memories.

Those cars are also FRONT WHEEL DRIVE!!!

Dig it baby!

you get your car dyno'd yet? you said it was on the 5th...

Bill Roberts · 08-20-2003, 08:49 PM

I did!

I did it last Sunday and it did very well as expected..I just need to get it scanned and post it.

Hold your horses....I will display it soon enough!

(I told a few folks in PM..Close to expectation..torque was higher than expected..HP was a shade better than I thought on the 4th run.)

MR.Memph knows the figures as the printout says..

First run was almost 6% lower than 4th. (last)

I will tell about it once I have the image scanned..all I can do now is make a copy and mail it. My dig camera is dead./

More reminising...

Lightning rod shifters, standard with the H/O Cutless.

Oldsmobiles had some killer stuff...too bad this is the last year for them.
