My first Gbodys i bought at the same time, sitting in a field. Two 84 hurst/olds, one that someone painted the 83 colors and the other original. I Sold the black one after making a good driver out of my silver one. Now i restored the silver one, painted on the stripes and emblems, upgraded the motor... because the 307 was not working when i got them... but now has a olds 455 bored 30 over, more fun. Love the car. Love g bodies.

Thanks bill, i use the site a lot to get ideas for things to do to the olds, or fixing common problems. It is kinda fun to post for once. Nice first G-body olds by the way.

My first car was a G-Body. My dad gave me his '83 Cutlass Supreme when I turned 12. He redid the whole car for me before my 16th birthday. It had a mean Pontiac 400 that he and my uncle built and a Turbo 350 he had built professionally. It had maroon interior w/bucket seats, floor shifter, and a center console. It was snow white w/a maroon 1/4 softtop and maroon Olds rallyes. When I left for college, my dad made me leave it w/him for fear that I would get carjacked. Low and behold, the first semester of my sophomore year someone a**hole stole it right out of my stepmother's driveway the one night that it wasn't blocked in. These are the last pics I took of it the week before it was stolen.

The following February, I replaced it w/two Cutlasses that I got in a package deal for a whopping $250.

I think it started when i was about 10. My dad had a 78 or 79 cutlass. A few years after that car was traded off, he ended up with an 81. He gave it to me when I was about 16. Right after highschool I built a 400 and a th350 from a 72 impala for it to replace the boring 260v8. I drove that for a couple years before alot of bad bondo work from the p.o. started showing through.
Thats about the time that I (regretfully) lost interest in the car. Pulled the motor, stuck it into a pickup, and sold the car for way too cheap. Here are a couple pics(of pics).
