    Man that A in Everett has been for sale forever! Glad it's finding a home...

    yeah, it does have potential

    there is really only four choices for power for something like this,

    either a 303, a 324, a 371 or a 394
    Oldsmobile of course

    price was way too high for a long time,
    still at the high end of the scale for what it is

    like I said, deal is not 100% in my mind yet
    we will know by this weekend whether it comes home or not.

    RPU its having its issues with the Vegas heat; but a world of fun! This one is good with a decent set of headphones and a little bass.

    Total timing of 38*

    so I passed on the '30 Coupe in Everett
    and found a better one for the same price in Olympia

    this one is an amateur resto job
    pretty decent overall

    been fiddling with it
    new head gasket, carb rebuild, plugs, cap, rotor stuff
    manifolds resurfaced and gaskets there too

    next will be go through adjusting the steering box

    my first all stock A
    kinda fun

    but really looking forward to getting the roadster on the road :)
