Nice Cutlass salon!! Sounds like a nice driver! Especially with a stick :) I really like the fastback design of these cars. Can probably make a mean looking pro-touring build. Has anyone seen these 442 hot wheels?

Dude that is awesome! I love 78-80 Oldsmobile's, especially the Hurst olds w-30.
But what is even more awesome is your daughter getting into cars!!
I can only hope, when I have children, that they enjoy being hands on. It doesn't matter to me if they'll like g-bodies as long as they have a desire to learn how these man-made machines work. My dad always said if it's man-made than a man can work on it, well I would like to say 'person' because this hobby belongs to all ages, walks of life and gender haha
Hopefully your daughter sticks with it and soon enough what is fun to her now will become a full fledged passion when she is older. Thanks clutch for that moment of inspiration.
Maybe the next generation won't be as lost as millenials lol
You like that read 78 W-31 build
