Going through the CN training. Decided to check this out, a few nice Olds. Chip Foose was there.

He had the show Overhaulin. I didn't always agree with his build ideas but he is a good artist. I showed the pic to my Wife. She thought it was Randy from Trailer Park Boys🤣.

Not sure what CN training is but...

Nice pics! Don't think I have ever seen a Fargo truck before! Had to look them up on the Wiki.

Som every nice cars although I don't care for the first one. That truck is just way cool with the hemi and the cross-ram. Thanks for posting.

Yeah, the first Olds had a bunch of orange peel too. The rest were all pretty nice, the V6 one was OK but original. The Fargo was flawless and super cool. We had a 56 1 ton with box and hoist with the flat head 6. It had 4 cracks from water freezing, so no coolant in the block. I tried to kill it, nope. I actually blew the rear diff getting stuck. Someone welded in the fill plug, who needs gear oil. I swapped in a new 3rd member, fairly easy. Double clutch to get past second, only first, second and reverse synchronized in the 4 speed. I would love a multiple carb setup on a flat head 6 in a 40's or 50's Fargo 1/2 ton.

Yeah, very cool to see nearly every Olds was Olds powered, suprised by that. The other makes were nearly all LS and sbc.
