Re: Build Thread, What I've done so far
cool build,a couple years ago when i had my 86 cutlass supreme my dad also had a gbody.A 1983 olds cutlass calais,it was brown,2.14 geared and had the 307 so now everytime i see your car it reminds of that car,even though it was sold a while ago,and just like me you're running a 73-74 olds 350!I like how you kept it gold and used a stock intake,i'll be reusing my stock intake on my 350 but instead of gold,i'm painting it black.Also i like how the car doesnt have a/c and ultilises the non a/c alternator brackets,i'll also be running them but i'll be putting them on my 307 this winter as for an older carby and hei dist.Good luck on everything with your cutlass build.

Thats awesome! Thanks for the compliments! I just feel really lucky since I get all of these parts at a junkyard like 3 miles from my house. I just can't wait to get this thing running!! Looking forward to going to cruise-ins and car shows next year too 8) Good luck this winter!

Re: Build Thread, What I've done so far
So I've been wondering this for a while... Should I put a pinstripe on my car??
If so, follow the bodyline or like the above picture, and in what color?
Any suggestions are appreciated!

I think a dark brown or black stripe would look good. Something around 1/8". Following from the back to the front, that body line on the side just below the mirror. Get it at the auto store, it's cheap. If you don't like it, peel it back off
