| As you can tell by the pics, I am still using the stock W-30 alum intake and Rochester Q-jet 4-bbl carb. My goal was to make the car look stock appearing and have the power to make this 3770 lbs car move. I am also using an electric Mallery 160gph fuel pump to make sure I never run out of fuel.

The options inside which include the 4-spoke rally wheel, Factory Am/Fm stero radio, tilt column, factory rally pack, interior light package and dual gate shifter. | |

| The rims on the Olds are 15 x 7 SSIII bolt on center cap rims. These rims were only available in 1974. I had the two rear rims widen to 15 x 8 and put on M/T Drag Radials. The tire size is 275/60R15. It has a tread width of 8.8 inches. These tires have excellent traction. They are giving me a 1.68 60ft times in the 1/4 mile and have excellent handling abilities at 110mph when I am racing and cruising the street. | |

Just some extra pics for you to enjoy. I know that I enjoy them. Like I said, this car isn't a trailer queen. On occasion I will trailer it if it is more than 2 1/2 hour drive one way. Thats because there is still maintance to be done on a street machine. If you have any questions, email me at wmachines@comcast.net |
