Re: 62 olds 88

this ones turning out to be pretty nice. i had to go through and back off the front drums and work the self adjusters. they were sticking pretty bad. ran the motor a few miles and got it flushed out. iv flushed the radiator 3 times now trying to get the rust worked out. i may need to go down and have it rodded because im still getting a lil hot. iv only put 15 miles on it since i got it. driving it to work friday and to the hotrod get together we had yesterday. odometer read 81500 miles when it came off the trailer and by the look of everything leads me 2 think thats the actual reading. all the original chrome is there except for the fenders super 88 emblems are missing a few letters. as soon as i get the mechanical aspects tuned in ill get to work on the body.
