I've been downsizing parts and projects to find a mostly original 1985 White 442. However, during my hunt a 86 442 that I inquired about for years became available. I first found out about this car 10 years ago when the owner was putting equipment into his pole barn and the car was taken out of...
I have read that the RPM intake may not fit the earlier A/G bodies. I'm thinking of swapping one onto my olds 350 before engine swap in my 79 cutlass. I will be using quadrajet carb and stock 80s air cleaner. Anyone running a rpm intake on a olds in an earlier A/G body?
I was not seeking another gbody. I told myself the only car that I would be interested in is a 79 trans am/firebird with t tops. My current gbody project has been a 79 Cutlass that I have been working on. Actually was going to start engine swap over spring break.
THEN, yesterday I get a call...
Does anyone have the claret interior paint codes for 85-88? Looking to get mixed in cans. I remember a few years ago various codes and manufacturers were on gbodyolds and I was able to blue and gray mixed up locally.
Has anyone used the SEM Burgundy 15063 as an option for the 80s g bodies claret/maroon/burgundy? Im looking for a cheap but good alternate for pillars, dash and door panels. I used the SEM black and its some good stuff but im not sure if the SEM burgundy is a close match. A can mixed using the...
Has anyone figured out a solution to the claret fade that turns purple on top of rear seat and door panels? I am swapping the interior in my 84 to claret and would like to touch up the fade.
I have to put cats on my cutlass. Any good buys out there? I have 2.5 exhaust and need 2 converters. I will be using just for inspection and then taking them back off. So I would like to buy a decent pair that works good. Local shops around here are asking wild prices.
I'm venturing away from being just a g body junkie and now have a new 1970 Cutlass S project. It has only 67k on it but was parked due to engine knock. Engine was apart when i got it. So far, I have only pulled the 350 out and been gathering parts here and there since I got it in the fall...
What seats are you guys using for black seats, front and rears?
I know the f body seats are a bolt in but I'm not a fan of the swirly sides that the black leather 02 trans am seats have. But even with those seats, the back seat won't match. Looking for ideas, interested in a black interior but...
My 455 is now sitting and I am looking for a trans to get my H/O moving this summer. I have talked to a few of the well known 200-4r builders and it looks like there isn't too many corners that I can cut to properly built a 200-4r. I just can't see me paying over $3400 for a damn transmission...
I am interested in seeing if anyone had success dying maroon seats. Everyone knows that this color is the worse when it fades. Before I attempt to put time into dying the seat fabric and door panel fabric, I would like to hear feedback and see others results.
I just took off the bumper off my 87 Cutlass to replace with another. Taking it off was easy, however putting the other bumper on is another story. Other bumper came of an 87 also. I can't get the bumper to line up under the support. Any tips on installing the bumper back on?
I was on the hunt for another 442 since I sold some other toys. I can now say I am the owner of a 1984 H/O. Car is mostly original except exhaust and chrome Oldsmobile scripted valve covers. It has t-tops, vinyl interior. Interior is in good shape also (drivers seat has some rips). Car has 81k...
My column is cracked/broke up to wiper switch/high beam lever from a thief that broke into car when PO had it. I just never fixed it, It's a column shift not floor shift. I need to wire a high beam switch and wiper switch for inspection. My lever is broke and rod that runs to wiper lever is...
I know the regal and cutlass console are the same length but can you swap the console top/lids? I have a broken cutlass console and seen a few regal consoles for sale. Looking to see if piecing a cutlass console is an option with the two.
I couldn't find any posts that have this info stated. I have a nice set of black upper door panels, however they are cut for manual crank and I want to cut them if possible for power window controls. Is this possible to make look nice and not hacked? Does anyone have a template to do so or have...
I'm looking to find out what the Cutlass production #s were for 1987. I have a Canadian born Brougham with documented 30k and am curious to know if it's a rare car before I start my customizing :lol:
Now that I my 1978 Oldsmobile Omega is no longer a non running project. I decided to tackle the task of transforming a "pop pop" regal into something fun. I have a 1987 Buick Regal that is all stock except the dual exhaust system. It's currently a bench seat car with a strong running Olds...
