I have a real 68 W-31. Minus the motor. Needing a total restoration. Currently on ebay. I will consider trading for a 73-77 Cutlass. I prefer a 73 S or 76-77 S or 442. Or maybe a Bravada. Heres a link with some pics.

Dennis, I told the guy I work with about this car. He's the dude that offered 17k for that silver 70 w31, he currently has a 68 w30. He may be getting ahold of you.

I read the auction. I'm curious, what's so special about the black inner fender wells?

Thanks Todd.

The fenderwells have the holes and clamps for the ram air hoses.

Cool Dennis, sounds like you did pretty good. Now you need to find another nice '73 :D .

I`ve been looking, just have`nt found anything that I can afford that interests me. At the moment I`m working on my Olds powered V8 S10 Bravada project.

Yeah, it`s something different. 86 S10 Blazer 2 door, 2 wheel drive. Currently has a 307 Olds. Soon to be upgraded to a 403 or 455. Have`nt decided which. Bravada black/gray leather interior, grill, taillights, bumper covers. 3;73, 8.8 Ford posi rearend. Lowered 2 inches. Cowl induction hood. I`m gonna leave all the Bravada ground effects off. Have`nt decided on a color yet. Thinking silver or black. On the back burner temperarally. Gotta finish my 350 S10 and move it first. Still have`nt decided what to do with the wagons. :(

I just did a Ranger swap. 302 FI in place of the v-6. How hard is your Olds swap?

Nice truck.

I did`nt put the motor in mine, I bought it this way. But it`s not that hard and it clears just fine with stock manifolds. Here`s a link with some pics.I bought it like this. It needs some work.

I don`t know what it is about these things but I`m really starting to like them. I`m not into all the fancy customizing that the kids are into.

I wish someone would buy my wagons. I`de make a heck of a deal to the right person. Someone who would restore or fix it up. NOT derby or use for parts.

I have two 73 V/C`s. Both from California. Niether mint or rust free. The first car is brown on brown, 350 ( not running ) fully loaded. The second car is my parts car. Green with brown interior. Factory 455 ( runs good ) t-400 trans and posi rearend. Both have clear Michigan titles in my name. I have tons of extra parts, way too much to list, including some rare NOS stuff.
$2000.00 will take it.

Is there really such a thing as a Olds 307?:confused: I think that is when GM decided to be lazy and use the chevy motor in everything. The only REAL Olds engines have 10 bolts on the valve covers or were made before 1963:rolleyes:

HUH ! The Olds 307 is not a Chevy. 1963 ? :confused: 69-70 was the height of performance. And 455`s were built until 76 and used in jet boats until 78 or 79. The good 350 block was used until 76. Alot of people seem to like 403`s and the Olds diesel block is the way to go for all out performance. So, you can`t say 63, not even 73 or 83 since the diesel was built until 85 or 87 or something close to that. ;)
