Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

I bought another set of bell brake drums from Tweed Vorhees (SNG Olds guy always willing to help me out)

Progress !!

I worked on the drivers side wheel well today, where it meets the trunk floor and trunk support.

Removed the bad, welded in new metal and sprayed it with weld through primer. I also cut out the next repair location and measures the replacement piece, it needs a lip, and the whole piece is slightly round vs flat..... more learning.

Collecting flywheels are we? Well, you do have three trannies, a different Shifter for every day of the week, probably have a few mills......
Just bustin on ya Ryan! Keep that nose to the grinding wheel......

Yup a couple motors, two bell housings:-) and I am still looking for an extra Driveshaft and O-Type rear end, and I am not averse to another style of Shifter or two:-)

PS: I plan to media blast my chunk of 4 speed floor this week "hump"

Get a driveshaft made, especially with a stick and a few extra ponies under that hood.

Spent a bit of tonight chatting with Nick Morocco about 12 bolt Chevy rear ends, 4.56 gears, driveshafts, slip yokes, pressure plates, clutches, splines, shifters, RamRod shifter shafts, hiem joints.

We really have some similar interests!!!!!!

I have had so much support working on my Cutlass that I try to find a few small situations that I can help others to keep the Karma wheel spinning!! A friend needs a Mustang looked at here in Ontario so I plan to have a look this week:-) I am not sure if this one comes with a saddle, or a propeller, or a steering wheel? As far as I can tell this trip lines up with pick up on the console top plate and a set of #5 heads (cheap I couldn't pass it up)

Had a fun night last night:-)

Visited two Olds guys in TO, picked up the console top plate and was surprised it came with the hinge, screws, bracket, everything but the base. He has two broken bases that I hope to buy to pull a Steve Segal (bond polymers) , got a set of #5 non-W31 heads they look good.

Then I looked at a Mustang GT500 clone for V8TV Kevin Oeste, super nice seller (he uses his ZR1 more)

Then I visited Danny T and picked up some 70 Chevelle parts:-) rear springs, a window winder and a few firewall plugs. Nice visit:-)

All this during rush hour and I slipped around traffic all night:-)

You are the MAN! I like your wit about the Mustang! I'd love to take a spin in one that had a propeller!
