    just picked up a sweet 1976 Olds Custom Cruiser (like a 98) sans wood, loaded and all original, in great shape. 106,000 mi 455, loaded and everything works, including 8-track, clock, power antenna, cruise, power seats both sides, and the tailgate.

    Welcome to the forums Jeff! That sure is a sharp looking Olds.....love the blue color with the white top. I don't think I have ever seen one like that before.

    I must have mixed your wagon up with another one. I know I talked to the seller about it and it seemed a VERY nice wagon. You are lucky to have it. Welcome aboard!

    Beautiful wagon! Thanks for the back story on your 75&6 Olds collection. Big detroit luxocruisers. I saw your wagon on eBay and drooled

    Welcome! LOVE the wagon! Reminds me of my uncles, but his had the woodie trim. Glad to see such a lovely clamshell in such great condition!

    thanks, I am very pleased. It is 3Q45T6X127418. The one you refer to looked a little rough compared to this, and the dash was cut for the radio. This will take some work to be up to my standards, but already got all the mechanical done. Also found a nice set of OEM wire wheel covers, and it makes it look 1000% better. Just need a complete detail, this weekend. And maybe some tint to protect it from the Florida sun.
