...did you paint over the vinyl top???

I sure did, over the rust collector. I hate vinyl tops, they have be one of the worst automotive, mass produced ideas implemented. I used paintable bed liner to fill all the cracks first. I would have removed it, needed the right trim and would probably find a huge can of worms. The floor is getting soft and rear frame rails have slight rot as well.

I want say it was a late 90's or early 2000's Mustang replacement scoop.

Here is another blast, man I miss this truck, burnt to the ground, I did break even on it at least. The Olds 350 powered 94 Z71. First here is a pic of the 78 1/2 ton, took the Olds 350 from it for the 94 Z71 and junked it, too rusty and beat up.

Here are a couple of old motors.
1976 Olds 350 rocket, 204/214 cam, SP2P intake, 5A heads, 8.7 to 1 compression ratio.

The 403 that was in my 88. Now in pieces, I have to get it machined this year for the stroker assembly by hook or crook.

And my Sanderson headers which still don't look terrible but have seen better days.

My boat which is also now on it's last legs, barely floats.

I agree, I miss that truck.

I've had the Cutlass almost 17 years now! The best pic I have is from 2006 when I attempted to sale it after being fed up with sh*t always acting up....

I decided to keep it because nobody would come close to the asking price, and I still cuss about the dang car, but I love it at the same time. Here it is as of a week-ish ago with it's fresh paint! Hoping to bring it home later this week....

Shiny paint goes a long way, looks good.
