94 olds vert Posted October 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 A while ago on ebay I saw Black pontiac emblems with skull & crossbones. So I made a black and white Oldsmobile Emblem. Yes I know its crappy, Not bad for a first try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

94 olds vert Posted October 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Got the car back today, New radiator, Core support, All the new paint. Looks great! Now I need to Put it all back together. After driving the car home, I didn't have the lights on, But the tail lights were lit up after I turned the car off. Any idea why the lights would still be on?

94 olds vert Posted October 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 I was at the junkyard today and was trying to pull off the crash bar, and the bolt was just spinning. There is a crossbar that connects to the other side and its broken. When I took off my old one I took the saw and cut it off. Because that crossbar to the other nut was broken. I am thinking of taking a hack saw and just cutting the bolt off. I removed 5 but need to take 3 more off still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5speedz34 Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 As for an aftermarket hood, you could try sherman inc. They are located in Romeo and sell aftermarket parts. I'm going to tell in my experience aftermarket body panels are of a much cheaper quality than factory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

94 olds vert Posted October 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 My dad picked a new hood, bumper, head light assembly, crash bar and radiator fan. The bumper is in terrible shape not even worth putting on the car, The hood is fair, It needs a good wash 'n wax. and more importantly rust free. Other misc parts. I now have a lot of extra parts, but that is never a bad thing. I have an extra set of corners, and I think I would like to try to clear a set of corners.
