Bought a 2000 Oldsmobile Alero for $600, had it for 2 months sold it for 2 grand and I got this car August of 2013 for $700 in Springfield,Tn site on scene non running and towed it home. Sat in my Moms driveway (16 at the time) because I didnt have very many tools, parts, or money. Was the original 260 th200 trans.
First thing I ever did to the car was change the fuel tank cause it decided to randomly leak one day
Strolling around junkyards I came across this headliner out of a 86 cutlass for 10 bucks (I didnt have one)
For the most part after that It sat around till March 2014, but now it will idle, move 3ft and die, and has a james bond smoke screen out the exhaust.
Girlfriend got me Subwoofers for my birthday and said "I dont know exactly what you need to get it running, but I knew you could do something with these." 2 10" Rockford Fosgates Punch P2.
So knowing that the 260 spun a bearing, burned oil and coolant, and had gas getting into the oil, I knew it was time to do a swap. With virtually no money I got lucky and bought a 307 for $200 (wanted to keep it olds) borrowed some tools from my automotive teacher at my school (Olds guy too) and the pulling began...
