Here is the freshly built and painted Olds Rocket 455. I didn't have the headers yet so just put the manifolds on for the picture.

All assembled and off to the custom exhaust shop. The temporary exhaust is hanging quite low to the ground in these pics. Nice external pics of the shop.

What are my future plans for the "Draggin' Wagon"? Well, here is my short list:
- Add rear anti-roll bar w/boxed control arms.
- Add air bags to rear springs.
- Add good axles.
- Add a Trans Temp Gage.
- Fix all the "new car gremlins" which there are several...
- Paint front calipers blue.
- Paint frame black.

Please sign my guestbook and let me know how you like it. Thanks!

Great car! I fell in love this weekend with my "new" 1988 Customer Cruiser! All the power options work and even the A/C. I got it to just be a "beater" to use for a couple of weeks while my main car is repaired. Now, I want to make sure the Cruiser goes to a good home when I've finished with him! Know anyone who would give Ol'Woody a good home? angkadkins@yahoo.com
