Hi, just found this site, I am buyin back my 81 Cutlass Supreme Brougham I should have never sold lol. Its in awesome shape, I origionally bought it for $600.....with only 84,000km on it, and it was stored in a garage for 15 years. I had just put Camaro Z28 rims right before I sold it. So anyways, I am gettin the ole girl back, and I have a Caddy 500.C.U. I will be putting into it. Anyone else ever put a 500 Caddy in a g-body? Would appreciated any info, and thanx for the great site
 
Welcome where abouts in Sask are ya located?
 
I've got two El Camino's an 82 SS and a 79. 79 Is going thru a body off right now. The 82 really only needs a drivers door and a pass side quarter, but what the heck I thought I might as well change out the interior, motor.....etc
 
sounds nice, I really like the El Camino's of the late 70's and early 80's, my Cutlass will need a paint job eventually, but the body is in awesome shape, all it really needs in a new interior as the mice ruined the leather.....hope to start on it in a couple of weeks, I have a posi rear end out of my 85 cutlass I am going to put under it.......85 was my very first car, wrote it off though, hit a deer, had a 305H.O. with a mild cam and dual exhaust and a TH350 with a stage 2 shift kit, but I sold the transmission after I wrote it off. At first I wasn't going to buy my Cutlass back, but a guy I work with bought a Monte Carlo and put a 350 in it, after a few rips in it I had to get my girl back lol
 
Welcome!

There's a couple guys on here with Caddy 500's that can offer some insight. Vern has one in his '87 442, and there's another fellow with one in a Malibu wagon.

Be sure to post up some pics for us!
