Hi, I have loved this GM body style since I was 10 and saw one in Full "lowrider" regalia, I am now 44 and have finally ended up with one, a 1986 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Broughm, that I rescued from our local wrecking yard here in Susanville, CA. Threw in a fresh battery and she roared to life..., well whimpered it is only a Olds. 307 after-all, Its all stock under the hood for now, had the Rochester feedback Carb. gone through completely from a local expert, tune-up stuff and oil change and she drives great ! Gotta love the Oldsmobiles !, I placed a Grant wood/polished centered steering wheel inside, then I lowered her about 4 inches all the way around and mounted a set of 1987 Mitsubishi Starion alloy wheels in 16x7s front and 16x9s rear with 215/60s and 255/50s , remachined the face and painted a interior matching burgundy in the recesses of the wheels, I re-machined the lug pattern to work on the Olds., for 25 + years I ran a wheel restoration, repair, paint and polishing shop in San Jose,ca before moving up here, I have all my tools and equipment in my well stocked home garage/shop, So I am able to Polish aluminum or perform wheel restoration work here after my day job of selling auto-parts, contact me with ANY questions.......
I also have an -81-88 ,I believe, Monte-Carlo fiberglass front end, hood, deck lid (trunk) and rear bumper for sale....

wow, looks good, always nice to have someone with some helpful skills here
 
Thanks for the welcome, and Yea I am pleased with the way the wheels "make" the car and well since they don't just bolt-on, your not gonna see to many that look like this, which is my driving force behind how I customize a car for myself.....
 
Nice work on the wheel fitment. Car looks very nice. Welcome bro. This site and the ppl are always a great help, you'll love it here. It's good to know a guy with skills like yours lol but you're too far away from me anyways, but again, welcome!
