Long time voyeur, first time posting. I thought I would join the crowd and get a couple of pics of one of my cars. I split my time between Illinois and Indiana and the car does the same.

thanks Brandon, I work out of Peoria and spend most of my time there. I have a home in southern IN (which is where the cars spend alot of storage time). i travel through Champaign when making the trip to or from IN.

Cool, I'm just west of both of you (IA/IL), and also collect/own/drive '70-'72 A-bodies (mostly Buicks, but like Chevelle/Cutlass/GTO, too)!

Awesome green on the Cutty, Where are you at in relation to Chicago exactly ??
Another green Olds owner here. It goes along with our Mick Bastid heritage. :)
I'm in the NW Suburbs of Chi-town out by Schaumburg.

1970 Olds 442 clone which is mid LY6 / T-56 swap.
I'm also gutting the wiring and putting another AAW Highway 22 kit in it with all weatherpack connections.

Welcome to the PT group, and very cool looking cutlass! We hope to have our 71 Cutlass S at quite a few events this year, including Power Tour if we can make it. Hope to see some of you Chicago people if we make it.
