Hey everyone. New to this forum.
Been building gbody and other GM rides since around '94. Havent owned a gbody since 2014 and I got the bug back so here I am. Currently building an 86 Cutlass to satisfy the craving. Here it is so far after a few weeks of work.

It's the v8 slug. Factory 307. Rebuilt with about 10 miles on it so far.
It was an abandoned father/son project that basically sat after the engine/transmission rebuild. The body was a little shot, but the upholstery was in tact and clean. Couldn't refuse the price so I took it over.
Next on the list of things will be getting the HVAC working properly, suspension bushings and bagging it. The car is on the east coast and I just flew back home to LV so I wont be starting that until the beginning of next month. Looking to be finished completely by the end of September. I forgot how fun and how easy these cars were to build. I'm already looking at a monte LS that's up for sale.
