New guy but Olds guy

Hey, i registered just to get help on a steering pump alignment but these posts are kinda cool, thought i'd say "hi". Had my 68 442 badged up S conv for 13 years. 1/8th mile on wednesdays, golf course on Fridays, cruisin on Saturdays, church on Sundays, kind of a one size fits all automobile. Nice to be on board and look forward to being of assistance if it's ever required. There's not a nut or bolt i haven't had off of her...come to think of it, i still have a drawer full of leftovers

Welcome to the forum! Sounds like you've had a lot of fun both working on and driving your 68.

I'm a bowtie gear head, but after you figure out that that the fuel pump goes on upside down it's all down hill from there.

Yes you need to get out more (In your Olds) other then that your off to a good start here. Always good to see another web foot Washingtonian on the site. If your ever up in the Bothell area stop[ and say hi.

will do and i will extend you the same courtesy. We have a great cruise in every Wednesday night all summer at portland international raceway. A couple of nights last year there were 1400+ cars, a couple hundred bikes, music, eats, drinks and eighth mile bracket racing with everything from dragsters to snowmobiles running till dark. fun starts around 4pm. work it into your calendar and let me know you're coming. Im usually to be found in the olds in the staging lanes waiting my turn. Good hump day fun.
