Hey, figured I'd introduce myself...I'm 19 live in Omaha, NE and have grown up in an auto repair shop all my life. I love anything and everything with an engine. I got interested in G-Bodies when I got my Cutlass for Christmas a few years back... It's an '80 Cutlass Supreme, 2dr, White, Maroon Interior, 260 V8, 65,000 Miles, 2 Owner (me being number 2!), it's got a full set of Ralleye Wheels (including a Ralleye Spare, ordered instead of the space saver).

I also have a few projects, a '94 Chevy 1500 with a 425 Olds/Th400/9inch ford...

And a '26 Willys Whippet 2dr Sedan that I'm turning into a Roadster Pick Up, on a '22 Dodge Frame, with a 223 Ford Six, Ford 4spd Top Loader, '52 Olds Rear, '36 Olds Artillery Wheels, '47 Plymouth Dash, '29 Pontiac Grille, 4 Inch Drop tube axle, Lever Shocks front and rear, some Offenhauser goodies on the inline, Modified Model A windshield posts, Model A box, firestone black walls, '36 GMC caps, and a set of trim rings, a coat of black on the frame and wheels, chrome grille shell, honey comb radiator, and not decided on paint, either deep maroon, battle ship grey, or a dark violet/purple.... She still needs alot of work, but someday it'll be a nice ride... a good ol' traditional styled hot rod...not a damn rat rod.

I've also got a '38 John Deere Unstyled 'L', and a few antique riding lawn mowers, and some old engines too that I've got plans for.

Wow, interesting, what are your plans for the Cutlass?

Plans for the Cut? For now drive it... That and a new set of wheels, Astro Supremes, Skinny Whites, and maybe lower her just a bit..

I'm in the process of wiring up a new speakers and all that now, Just something simple, a set of MTX speakers, MTX 10inch Shallow Mount Sub, and an MTX amp..

The long term plans, 468 Olds (have, just not to sure if I want to put it in yet) a coat of black, with a black top, redo the interior in Maroon leather instead of the stock cloth/vinyl and put the stock red pinstripe back down the side... Then full stainless exhaust, Switch Pitch 400, 9 inch rear, and a beefed up suspension..
 
hey saw you were in omaha too was curious if you knew anyone who might have a lead on either a chrome rear bumper or front grills for a 79, 442
 
I don't know of anything for a '79...

I'm looking for a chrome rear bumper for my '80, not havin' much luck.
