Thanks Don. The boss put her foot down and said your not selling this car so it looks like it will be in the family for a while.

Ok boss has changed her mind and says it has to go to make room for the nomad. Car is going on the market. See link
http://www.popularhotrodding.com/fea...obile_cutlass/

Price is 20k firm as before. If you like to haggle your price is 25k. The car has had the trans completely rebuilt and beefed up with a shift kit and trans cooler and a new lokar pedal sense I last listed it. It currently has a leak in the upper radiator tank it is a original harrison. I will install a brand new custom aluminum griffin if you wish before the sale but the price will then be 21k firm. You can't build one for close to this price. It's A real nice crusier and handles like a dream. Pm if intersted.
Thanks
Rocky

"You can't build one for close to this price." Ditto's to that. A real nice car for the money.

Nomad project depends on how fast the cutlass moves. I'm broke after dealing with your friend lol. Thanks again for the lead. I have all most all of the unique nomad trim now for the project. It ain't cheap they dont make it anymore. I have almost as much in used trim as the nomad cost.

Rocky,
awesome build man!
saw it for sale on BAT & inspired me to pick up a clean 65 cutlass.

Had a few questions, forgive me if I missed these in the thread.
was the LS donor an Fbody? if so did use use the stock exhaust manifolds?
Looks like you left the AC compressor in the stock location and only had to move the alt?

thanks,
Brooks

Sense the cutlass is staying it now has new tires, new exhaust system, new griffin rad , & a new parallel a/c condenser. The a/c works great now compared to before.
