Well I have a 84 cutlass that I have had for some time now, little back story on it, I grabbed the car from a old neighbor for $200 dollars, had a hole in the block. The piston and rod came right out the right side. Had a 350 rocket in it, when I saw it run it ran like a champ. When I grabbed it off of him, I put a 350 sbc in it cause I couldn't find a sbo, but anyway I'll go from then to now.

Was headed in the right direction, got the posi installed. And a few other goodies for the cutlass. Grabbed a euro, a rear sway bar from umi that I ending up letting go, I upgraded, grabbed a trunk lid and head lights from Toby. Also a front sway bar from a friend body.

Next the bullshit happened, I saved up my hard earned money and got ****ed over by Dennis Noble and Bob Bellamy. Dennis left my car in pieces after it was painted, then took the paint off cause he said it wasn't done right.

But anyway, I went from a quarter rag to a full had top, i got the correct side windows, and rear window trim, Toby put in the rear window rivets for me after I got my car back from them bogus *ss dudes.

Then I thought my car was making progress, but I got ****ed over some more, great learning experience. I became more diy with my car. Go was going back together had the euro shaved, hood shaved. Added a ss wing, which was the lay down kind, sold this one will be adding a stand up one when my car goes back to paint.
