New guy 16 and bought a 1978 Cutlass Supreme (Esther) first car/project. Paid 700 on a 1200 dollar budget. It came from Middle Tennessee but has up north style rust spots. I found it under a tree rotting away and believed it needed a second chance at life. I plan to make it a balance of durability, economic, and power for its size. it has its original 260 v8 with TH200 transmission of unknown miles. Really rough around the edges inside and out but love it. I havent dumped a lot of money into it yet because I have a idle/carburetor problem. Ive replace the fuel tank, lines and hoses, and interior panels (there werent any in to begin with) so far but no upgrades or anything. Im trying to toss those wheels out ASAP, just isnt my style. Im going for a pro-touring look. If You look in the pictures, someone actually tried to steal it one day in the condition its in! They popped my passenger side key lock (breaking the window frame) and busted my steering column. I assume once they realized that it wasnt going anywhere they ran off. This happened when it was on its way to my house. We rested for a night at a friends from a long drive and woke up the next morning to that.
So this is just a little background of the car hope you liked it, Im open to all tips&tricks, ideas, and any parts you think I may need to invest in. 8)
