I just picked this one up last weekend. I had it loaded and down the road when I stopped for fuel and then decided to look it over, lol. I was floored when I saw the mileage! The car had all the paperwork from its yearly inspections in the glovebox, confirming the mileage right up until 2008 when it was parked. I'm assuming it was the brakes that did it in. I originally purchased it for parts and the front valance and interior bits were what I was after, but now I believe she will be back on the road soon. Everything inside works like new, the switches feel crisp and positive as they should, all lights, sounds, gauges etc function. The car will fire and run for just a few seconds, so I've pulled the injectors and will drop the tank for a complete fuel system clean and put in a new pump and filter. I'll have my body shop guys pull and fix the quarter panel dent, buff her out as good as possible and see how well she looks. If it was a sunroof car, I would most likely keep it, but since it isn't, it'll be looking for a new home in a few months. Now, if I could only find a dang black car!!

Hello, sorry it took so long to respond. Thanks for the warm welcome! Here are some pics I snapped today.

Actually,,, I've NEVER done ANY Social Media crap and I don't miss it either!!! with the exception of this Forum and 60*v6.com... I'm sort of an OLD man,,, 63 and I just can't abide by most of the crap that everyone is dishing out!!! I had never even touched a computer until I was 41 or 42... Oh Well,,, that's enough of MY crap!!! Tom B...

I haven't had a fb since 2012 and haven't looked back since

The wires should work out well they are a nice touch

Here's some info on those DTCs: https://www.w-body.com/shaun/p2125.htm https://www.w-body.com/shaun/p2138.htm I'll see if I can get the actual schematic when I'm off work. It's from eSI, so the links inside the document won't work.

Yeah if I were to get a turbo it would be a black one with grey cloth. CD and moonroof don't matter much to me.

In a small block Chevy with adjustable rockers and/or solid lifters, yes sure. There is no lash to be set on a 60 Degree or 3800 with hydraulic lifters. It doesn't matter where on the cam lobe the lifter is sitting. Pull up the repair procedure from eSI yourself, it's not part of the process. Edit: Also, to OP, rocker arm bolts are TTY and should be replaced.

I'll pm you tonight, have to dye the dash so color isn't of importance to me, neither are scratches.

Welcome to FB, bud...It's like Hotel California. You can check out any time you like but you can never leave. Then again, I have no life.

If you know what the donors were I can give you the information to test those.

A HUD bezel like you have there, I have a HUD from a later one but need a bezel to modify.

Jihgety, if you want to sell a HUD assembly I'd be interested, I need a bezel.

You should put all those HUD units on top of your dash and take a picture. Post it on FB and try to convince people you actually have them hooked up!

Fwiw, there's no such thing as an Oldsmobile vehicle. That's a BS myth - just like the $2 bill! Congrats on getting the car back on the road!

I would have bought the entire interior from that car if I could have.
