Projects 1963 Olds Jetfire Re-restoration- Turbo charged/Fluid injection

Found a few more ads for you.

Now the Chevy boys can't say they are the only ones making 1 horsepower per cube anymore.

 

OK quick update. Updated to 14" tires and white wall.

 

Next step in the restoration of the Jetfire. Complete front suspension rebuild. Lots of cleaning and wire brushes. More work but will be worth it.




My #1 mechanic on the job!!

 

Next update. Made the Oldsmobile National meet in Gettysburg, PA Drove the car 4 hours both ways. Came away with a first place award. Very happy!! Still more details to add car is coming together.Caught up with a lot of old Olds friends.

 

Doesn't get any better than that. Congrats.

 

Great Car, Excellent build, Congratulations!

New update! Installed the correct 10" flywheel, clutch assy, and super T10. The stock t10 had a 2:56 first gear and was hard to get it moving with slipping the clutch. The new trans has a 3:42 first gear. That makes a big difference!! Next install the new replated rear bumper. Still more to do!!

 

Thanks for the update was just thinking we haven't see you for awhile.

 

Been working on a 1929 TROG car also. Looking for a front bench seat.
Thanks for the post!

Thanks for posting pictures of the intake setup. I recently picked up a 63 but in had the intake swap done on it years ago. I'm hoping to find the parts to put it all back someday. Yours is looking good.
