Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS
I picked this one up the other day. It is a 66 Rambler Ambassador. It has a factory 327, buckets, console, power steering, power windows, power locks, tilt, and probably more. It was not running when I bought it. The guy I bought it from had it parked for a few years without starting it. Once I got it home I put a battery in it, changed the oil, and turned the key. It turned over, but no starting, I sprayed some starting fluid in the carb, nothing. I pulled the cap and quickly sanded the points. It fired right up and ran great. I'm not sure why I bought it. I guess it is just a unique old car. Now I have to decide what t do with it. I don't contribute to this thread enough and I thought I'd share.

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS
One of the pictures looks like you were taking it to the landfill for its last ride...

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS
Went to visit a friend this past week that has a yard full of Trucks and cars he's collected while towing over the years. I've must have glanced at this Brown Oldsmobile for the past two years figuring it's just a plain jane Delta car. He tells me he and a friend in late 77 purchased two Oldsmobile Pace cars, one they painted brown, and dropped a cam in it. Car has the original 403 -- The only sign left that it was a pace car is the Silver paint on the door jambs and the 403 under the hood.
