I like to spark things up from time to time, ask some questions etc. Lets hear/see pics of the coolest car OLDS or not that you ever had. If Jasen posts something other than his red car I'll pass out!

'65 Chevelle 2-dr wagon.
Paid $500 for it with a 283 4-speed in 75.
Found a '69 396 4-speed 3:55 posi Chevelle + 65 El Camino for $300 - sold the El Camino for $200 while hooking up the Chevelle!
Putting everything together, kinda had a Z-16 wagon that ran 13:53 @ 110 mph with the stock converter + T-400.
Never timed with the B+M Holeshot converter, but street raced a V-8 Vega and won by about 5 cars. He'd run 12:20's.
Even with the self-done valve job, Torquer, 780 Holley, converter, Crower cam + lifters, etc., don't think I had 2 grand in the car.
Someone offered me a grand for the motor, and I never even took the pan off!
Parted the rest and broke even.
Then found a '69 442 club coupe!

I've had at least 50 cars over the years, but the coolest/baddest car I've owned by far is my 65. The bright colors, shiny chrome/lack of chrome, looks and power just make me smile.
The rarest car I've owned was a 65 ChevyII SS 4spd w/ factory tach.
