[gbody442]

hellow from mn,i just found this great site and am looking forward to joining the topics and discussions.i live in northern mn and i'm a over the road truck driver and own my trucking company.the best part of my job is i travel all over the country and get to find some pretty nice deals on cars and parts. i gess you could call me a olds nut or a olds guru. i have a 73 h/o that is in a frame off resto now and will be done this fall,just in time for next summer.i also have a 73 cutlass s that i bought in sothern texas and a 73 h/o i just got in cali this summer.the other 2 cars mentioned are for parts.sooo,i used 2 parts cars to make a real nice 73 h/o.i recentley bought a 86 442 with 56,000 miles that was in texas and sat sence 1992.it's a very clean car but the interior was pretty rough. the car is in paint now and most of the interior parts were replaced.i joined this site to learn more about this car and to hopefully find the parts i still need to make this car a show room car.i am also a member of 73-77 olds fourm.com and go by the user name of rrtrooper68 so go check it out if you get some time.here is a few pics of the 86.
