those AMX's are fun cars. one of the Science teacher's @ my high school had a '68. he also had a '70 Javelin SST with the “Go Package” on it (super quick!).
guess this is kinda obvious now, but you shoulda got rid of the ex sooner!

thanks for the info on the Olds.

I am a big fan of buick v6's too. At one time I was going to put the power train out of a 1983 buick regal into a 59 chevy pick up. I had it all planned out, and everything was ready to go. Then, life got in the way. Oh well, I aint dead yet. One day I'll have more time and money to chase my brainstorms.

I love Buicks and Oldsmobiles, the 3800 is one of my favorite engines. I'm more partial to the LN3 and Series one (more the LN3 for favorite) but I love the engine all the same. I started with an '89 Olds 88 and i miss that car but i got something better for it. I wish I had my mom's '89 LeSabre Limited but its rusting away now. The Regal Gran Sport Sedans are another favorite too and yours are very very nice. I'm very partial to the '03+ Park Avenue Ultra in Diamond White or Ming Blue (the midnight blue) someday I'll get one I think. Those are W bodies also I'm pretty sure. Got any ideas to make one a luxury missile that doesn't heel through corners?

this is a little update for this thread since it is back from the dead.
this is the tan car now
then under the hood
I may be picking up a 97 gs with a bum trans and swapping in a trans I have in storage for cheap and then flip it for some cash to do the bathroom and make the woman happy. when I have more time I will detail the build on this car but now it is intercooled and has bigger injectors and smaller pulley and new wp and stiffer springs since the old stock springs were fatiguing and giving valve float.
The green 99 I picked up cheap is now the patient I am working on and it is getting parts to become the commuter to college 50 miles away
