This is a friendly place, and no place better to find parts for our cars than right here. We are thirsty for pics, however, and want to see your car as soon as possible. :)

Pix's will be up soon,... but have to wait for the snow to melt before getting her out. I also need to remove the Buick rims off of it, and put my olds rims on it. So it will be soon. Need a passenger front door for it badly or even just a skin off of one.

Welcome. Tell us more about your car.

Well I bought the car from a guy that was getting ready to sell it to a demo derby guy because the car was so solid. Yup I saved her. and paid a little bit more to save it. Well anyway the car had one major issue every time you gave her the gas she would fall flat on her face so he told me it needed a carb so I bought it anyway. Well as I was looking the car over I noticed lots of original GM parts still on the car. Things like the original date coded shocks, orignal GM muffler and front rotors. Well I decided to put to change out the muffler on it because there was a leak in it,.... and much to my surprise the flat spot in it went away. You guessed it,....... there was a baffle in the muffler that plugged the exhaust every time you gave it the gas. So I was very pleased and the car ran like a dream but it still needsa good carb which I am still in need of only because this one leaks. The car has A/C and works pretty good but not 100% The frame is in excellent condition and the body isn't to bad either, but the passenger side doors got hit hard, but I was able to straighten the rear door but the front one is shot but I will fix it if I can't find a new one. I have a set of Buick Rallye's on it right now but I do have the original 15x7 Olds rallye's ready to go on it soon. I pulled the vynl top off of it because it was one big bubble as it went down the road. The car is blue with light blue interior which is really nice but dsoes have some dry spots in the tops of the rear seat. Oh yeah the car is from NC. I want to add 442 emblems and stripes to it to give it a new look. I also want to use a new type hood scoop to give it a beefier loook. Well when I get it out I will post pix's.

Cool story. I'm just a bit further, uh..."downstate". (I have such a hard time saying that) I'll keep an eye out for a door for ya down this way. Unfortunately, I don't have any extras. There was a guy in Lowville, in Lewis County that had a brown 77 4 door that had good doors, but he wouldn't sell. "Was gonna restore it someday." His shop closed up and I haven't seen the car in a few years. If you check out my cardomain link, you can see my 77 4 door.

Yes I already looked at your rides. They look good. I'm about 3 hours north of syracuse. On rt 37. I was hoping to find someone with a station awagon junked somewhere. Maybe in 2 weeks I will get mine out and I will show you what my ride looks like.
