Hello...New Enthusiastic Member
Hello All... Dad passed down to me a 1948 Olds Dyna 76 with a Flat head straight 6, I live in Chicago and am looking for help, restorers and any info. Have car with orig. everything. Having hard time finding knowledgable person/shop. Would appreciate any advice in process, would like to keep as orig. as possible, if not then thinking of other options.

Welcome to CO
Sounds like you have a project on your hands. They are neat cars. I have a 1948 Series 76. It is a work in progress and is highly modified not stock at all. There are a few fat fender guys on site hopefully we can help you out. Ask your questions and lets how we measure up.

Welcome to CO. If you can keep us updated with descriptions and photos of your restoration that would be neat. We have a major builds forum for that kind of thing if you are good at writing. Do you have any pictures of your car?
