      Project Sinister88

      Hello everyone! The Sinister88.

      This project was born from inspiration of a PT sponsor Clay's 65 Jetstar. I just fell in love with his 65 88!

      So here we are today, I now own two vehicles for this project:
      65 Olds Jetstar88
      65 Olds Delta88

      The reason I have two was I bought the Jetstar and when I saw it up close I realized that it has way more rust than I'm prepared to deal with on my very first build. So I'll use whatever parts are in better shape from the Jetstar to build the Delta . The Delta is in great shape, some surface rust and a little rust on the rear window line.

      I know very little about restoring old cars, so this is going to be a big hill to climb for me. My family has been into cars and I've worked on cars a little, but just basic stuff really.



      Here is how the cars are currently, and the last photo is where I want to end up at the tail end of this project!

      Here's the Jetstar I bought last year:

      Rust is pretty bad. Here's an example in the floor

      The one thing I can bring to the table from the get-go is interior work knowledge, I am almost finished with my tan to black interior swap on my truck - I learned alot... did all the prep/paint work for this one, glad to help anyone with questions!
