Guest imported_DaveZZZ Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 I got the 67 out for the first real (that is, not just a repair run around the block) run on Saturday. The back seat is still out (I'm chasing an electrical gremlin on one of the back windows and stymied as to how I can get a 6x9 speaker into the enclosure without modifying the enclosure), and I haven't got the idle quite right following the carb rebuild, but I did get the driver's door back together (fixed the window switches), so out we went. Surprisingly, it was my wife who insisted we not miss the opportunity.A cruise like that after a long winter of not getting enough done reminds me that it really is well worth all the time, effort, and money.-Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brentman Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 put about 100 miles on my '68 cutlass convertable over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imported_Badger Guy Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 I had the 71 cutlass out. But the 67 is still in pieces. The 455 for it is almost done. My wife wasn't real happy with that bill. She had a suggestion on where that 455 could go, but I don't think it will fit there.Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest imported_DaveZZZ Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 hee heeI'm having the parts car battle now. She doesn't want a non-functional car on the premises. I figure with an acre of woods I can hide it (and my real plan is to strip it and dump the carcas), but so far I am losing that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InMyMerryOLDSMOBILE Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 So far I have had my 1965 Cutlass Conv. out & my 1903 Curved Dash Olds out. The wether here in So Cal has been great.Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketraider Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 We've had decent enough weather here that the Ninety-Eight and the Toro have both been on 200-mile plus road trips thru winter. The Toro went to a cruise night in Lynchburg Saturday- about an hour each way. It was near 80 here that day and His Lizardness let me know I didn't put enough lead additive in his tank to compensate for winter blend gas on a warm day. Persnickety beast...I still have to get the green Starfire out, and the Hurst still has no interior or weatherstripping though I have found a guy locally who can put the vinyl roof and stripes on it. Maybe, just maybe, it will go out before summer's end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
