pro-touring Olds project

[68cutlass]

Hi everyone. I figured it was time to stop searching everyone else's posts and start getting involved. My name is Mark and I'm a high school Physics teacher and coach in Southern California. I'm restoring/modernizing my first car, a 1968 Olds Cutlass. I'm originally from Indiana, and the car has been in my family since new, so its seen way too much salt over the years. I've prepped a "new" frame for it and I'm in the process of building up the suspension (AFX spindles, SC&C pro-lite UCAs, etc.) The car will be powered by an Olds 455 w/Eldebrock heads, backed up by (tentatively) a shrifter-controlled 4l80e. Thanks to everyone who posts on this site, you've given me untold amounts of information to get me started on my project. I especially want to thank Mark at SC&C for taking the time to listen to my goals for the car and help me come up with a plan to reach them.
