Okay, since I traded my '79 monte for this somewhat 'setup' 1980 cutlass, I figured I would create a build thread for it to see where I started vs where I end up! It came with some pretty decent parts but work still needs done. Goal for the car right now is mainly drag strip. Nothing fancy for a while just something to tinker with and make faster. Eventually it will get a lot faster but for now keeping it in budget and have fun!
Start with some cold weather engine pulling with grandpa! He has fun helping me out haha Out of the monte and soon into the cutty. And yes we have a crappy hoist so have to come in from the side... works though lol. Also, no garage, everything is outside. Many days spent drenched in rain laying under it lol
Moving the engine to the shed for a few new gaskets before the cutty showed up. Hillbillys
