General Description
Engine Specifications:
- Oldsmobile 350 Rocket 310HP
- The Gold Paint is wearing off the engine. Someday I'll pull it and repaint it.
- none, although the rocket logo sticker is missing off the air cleaner. :frown:
- everything is stock
- Single...I'm gonna change that right away. True dual. I think I'll make this one loud.
- Stock. It has the "highway" gear package which gives me dissapointing 0-60s. I haven't had a chance to do a 1/4m test yet. But in any case, those gears are too high and I am gonna replace them with something lower.
- None. Then again, it's not a very heavy car.
- All stock
- Black everything. Vinyl Seats, Vinyl canopy. Everything except for dash and floor carpet has been restored. The dash and the carpet are in reasonably good condition..not mint, but there are no cracks or tears or anything like that.
- Black Vinyl top has been restored. Frame and Underbody are near-mint. No rust. The Body panels are another matter. The silver paint has faded to grey. I did a wax job and it helped a little bit, but it still looks real faded (at least it's silver again.) Also, there is rust rot on all four quarter panels to some degree, and a little rust on the doors. Ultimately, the panels will probably need replaced, but I'm toying with the idea of Bondo and a paint job in the meantime...that'll buy me some time at least...especially if it's not a daily driver and stays out of bad weather.
