The Olds contingent opining on that board remind me of the vast majority of Olds guys I've dealt with over the years. A good percentage of them were beyond cheap, & didn't appreciate the work it takes to do quality body work or the effort it takes to chase down & cull up the best straight rustfree sheetmetal.

Locally, its even worse, the typical Olds guy owns a '71-72 Cutlass that's either a driver "showcar" in desperate need of major mechanical work & having its bodywork redone...OR its one of the rolling abortions with 20" wheels & the thump-thump car stereo. Ive cut up a couple dozen '68-72 Cutlass partscars over the years & caught grief that I should have "restored" them. It's refreshing to meet a longtime Olds guy who is into W31's & W30's & not into contraption building.
