Hi all, I'm new to these boards. Referred by a good friend. (I think he's getting tired of all my questions). Anyways, as the name suggests I have a 1975 Hurst/Olds W-25, Car has been in my family since i was born (i'm 28 now) And sat in my parents garage covered for the majority of my life. I made a deal with my dad that if i bought a house with a place to store it I could have it. 7 years after getting my house I asked if he'd still give it to me, and to my pleasant surprise he agreed. After replacing a cracked radiator and installing a new battery it's been in my garage for two years now. So far I've only had the tires replaced and i installed a CD player And new speakers. I"m looking forward to picking peoples brains on the forums here to see what can be done to it. Thanks for having me. :D

Welcome! It's cool you found the site. You should find the answers to most of your questions about your car here. It sure would be nice to see some pictures of your car and be sure and register it by clicking the 73-77 Registry link.

Welcome! That's a great looking, car hope you don't plan on modifying a nice original 75 Hurst Olds like some people I know... lol yes I am guilty of that. If you need any advice or tips feel free to contact me. I have rebuilt this particular model may times over! Best of luck with your H/O.

Thanks for all the replies guys! I'm still debating on what to do with the H/O I'd really like to squeeze a few more pony's out of the 350.. I'd also like to firm up the suspension or do a custom air ride setup. The interior will be restored to original not including the custom stereo install. But for the main part it will remain an H/O just modernized a bit, and all custom work won't really be seen or noticeable.. That being said. I'm broke so it'll be awhile before any real updates are done to it..
