      New Year, New Member

      First off, happy new year everyone! I can't believe I have not run across this website before now. You know what they say, better late then never. My stable of cars is now down to just one, but maybe now I can concentrate on my car and "git r done".

      I have a '72 Cutlass with over 360 thousand miles on the original engine and chassis. It was my daily driver for many years up until this Christmas, when I decided to "retire" it. The plan is to give my Cutlass the full pro-touring treatment. I will be doing my own frame-off and will no doubt be referring to this forum for advise. Let the fun begin...

      Welcome from a 65 Cutlass owner. You should check out my thread on "Project Olds." Some of what we are doing may apply to your project.

      350,000 miles is a lot of memories. Sounds like an awesome idea to give the car the pro-touring treatment and start making some new memories.

      I have been reading about your Cutlass in PHR. The latest article on the suspension was very informative. I don't have 15k to lay out for a AME frame so I will have to do my own mods. Here is a pic of my Olds.

      We used the DSE A-body kit. It works great and is very simple to install.

      Luke - Thanks for the info. I will be starting from the bottom up so the suspension will be the first item I tackle.
