Journey With Olds. It is the OCA (Oldsmobile Club of America) magazine.

You may check your local autozone. Mine had them in stock and even listed them in their computer system. I believe they fit many years and models.

I picked up some super cool NOS parts out of Hawaii. I will not use the tank on this car but I will use the cap and emblem. Now I want to find an NOS trunk lid Jetfire emblem.

I would like to know this as well. I will be replacing my rear control arm bushings but not looked into this yet. For the front, I have been watching eBay for the past couple years off and on. I picked up NOS ball joints and some steering parts from there. If time is on your side, you can pick some of this stuff up from eBay for reasonable prices.…[Read more]

Yes, I am getting it also.

Sorry to hear about the tank. I have a leak on our 4 speed car tank. I pulled out an extra I have from a 61 Buick Special and to my surprise, the filler neck is the same between them. This one is from a 27,000 mile car and was undercoated very early in its life. It is a pain getting the undecoat off but will use it till I restore the car and…[Read more]

I sent you an email

Very nice looking! I am looking forward to restoring our 4 speed car but it is going to be even longer now. We are taking both cars to the Homecoming show next year so I will have to wait on the restoration a little longer.

I need about 6 to 8 quality pictures of cars. They need 8 good pictures to choose one for the T shirt of the 2019 Homecoming show. If anyone want to email me a couple quality photos I will collect them and forward them on to the Homecoming organizers.

All of my 63 carburetors had the chimney and all my 62’s do not have it. I am only assuming that they have not been changed in the past.

On another note, I finely check my MPG since I made the jet modifications and puled out the needle. I am at 17 MPG where before, I “think” I was at 19. I am going to make another change on this and see if I can…[Read more]

We are in for the 2019 show! Spread the word so we can have a good Jetfire turnout

Very nice!

I am almost done with this display engine. I did not go overboard with the little details, Just wanted to have the general turbo system installed. I have more to do but I will not likely install the plug wires, coil, or other non turbo related items. I will need to get some decals for the air cleaner also. After this, I need to make some kind of…[Read more]

This car is on hold but I had already sent in the 4 speed carburetor and other parts to be recolored. He just sent me an email that he got them finished and ready to send back to me. I had sent them to Sparky’s carbs. There are so many little parts to these that it is more than the usual fee for a 4 bbl carb coloring. It was $320 for all the…[Read more]

Here is one to add to the list Jim. It is built the same week as our automatic car. 05E and is number 898. The tag was almost to far got to read. It is 29 cars newer than our car. Ours was shipped to NY and this car was new in PA.

This car is to far gone to ever restore

Bringing this back up. I have talked to some people and looks like we could get at least 6 cars so far. I think it would be easy to get a couple others I know of to go.

I just talked to Judy that has a major roll in running the Homecoming show. She said that 2019 is not set yet as to what the car will be. Maybe it will be possible for the 2019…[Read more]
