Something cheap to do would be to get a shortened antenna. I'm waiting for mine in the mail.

Tires are same as stock 245-50-16 Goodyear GSC's... I plan on getting some rims whenever I have the money... Good idea on the shorty antenna.. And wow I didn't realize the exhaust tips looked so bad... They will be cleaned shortly. Thanks for the advice guys keep it coming...

looks relly clean, but i'd remove the front plate (even if it's the law) and paint the door handles body color

never heard of painting the door handles body color... any pics of that? sounds like a good idea. i am going to get rid of the front plate and side moldings and trans am logos on the side. i might spray the door handles while im doing the front bumper.

It's a very nice car, Looks like you keep it very nice as well but I think you need different wheels. Something a little more aggressive. Just my opinion though.

That 1971 Oldsmobile is just so awsome! I sold a 1972 Monte Carlo a year ago and I have to say, there is nothing like crusing around in older detroit iron! I would get a thumbs up everywhere I went in that old Chevy! I betcha half of the board members even knows what "442" means. Thanks for the pics of the car.
