There are a bunch more in my photo album here:

I purchased this car from an individual who was going through a divorce and much has been done and invested into it to cause one. The car came with $17k in receipts and has just about every piece of exterior chrome, trim, lighting, etc. replaced new from GM.

I was out to find a white '88 Cutlass Supreme Classic for my 20th Anniversary Hurst Olds Aero kit and had plans to install a 455 with C heads and a ram air hood. Well low and behold about 2 months later this car pops up on eBay with everything done to it already.
I had to have it however my appreciation for the car isn't to what the original owners was. You can't appreciate something unless you put the blood, sweat and tears into it yourself. Sometimes I feel like it isn't even my car... but after I put that Aero kit on it the feelings will change.

Under the hood is a 1973 Olds 455 with C heads, stock intake and carb, mild cam and an HEI dist. backed by a TH-400, 7.5" 3.08 Posi and extensive frame bracing under the car and behind the seat. Exhaust is a single Cat split into duals like the 85-87 442's and is very quiet at idel until you give it a little juice. I have plans to install Kook's headers, x-pipe and Flowmasters hopefully over the winter or by next spring, I really want to start racing it. The paint is exceptional and it has only seen rain at the Oldsmobile Nationals in 2007. Other than that it's garaged kept and has under 10k on it.

The car will do doughnuts at the drop of a hat and has exceptional lauch grip, nothing passes me on the street in this car. I have raced Mustangs to Duce Coupes with this car on the street with great sucess. I'll never forget the priceless look on the guy face in the two seat yellow Mercedes or BMW one night, definately a sleeper.

I haven't yet decided if I want to do the 88 H/O conversion on this car yet, I can't come to terms removing that beautiful chrome and replacing it with plastic...
So far the car has been in two calanders, hopefully more to come 😀
