I've been on this board for a while and never got any pics up, but after a repaint on the car, I finally took some pics for insurance/appraisal so I finally have some to post. :)
Really happy with the shop that did the work -- Culver City Customs aka 3C (definitely recommend them to any LA guys). Most of their work is on these old muscle cars and some Porsches, and just good guys.
Only problem now is that I'm starting to run out of room for my toys, and this one is next in line to go! Yikes!

Okay, been out all day... but first of all, no that's not my pink house! Haha. Second, it's still got the original stock 350 in it. The engine is the one area I really haven't touched because i've never had any problems with it. I know some Old Olds guys consider it blasphemy, but my dream would be to put an LS1 in there.
And yeah, I love the Grand National. Always wanted one, and just got it few months ago. The Cutty was my daily driver for the last 6 months after I sold my 02 Vette and was looking for the GN. Needless to say, as gas has gone up a billion percent, getting 11mpg wasn't very economical for daily transportation. The great thing about the GN is that if you lay off the turbo, you can get 20-25mph no problem. Also nice to have overdrive!

Good luck trying to do that :cool:
By the way, I am not a huge fan of the Cutlass. Yours looks awesome. It must be the ones that I have seen are not clean looking like yours and they seem to sag in the rear. Very nice looking car.

I love the Cutlass. My first car was a 72 blue Cutlass that was passed down to me from my grandfather. Drove it through high school and then purchased a 1970 442. Have since moved to a 1st gen camaro but would love to have another 442 or cutlass someday. Nice looking car you have.
