    barn find

    Bought some land that was my great grandfathers and ended up with his old car. Its a 71 cutlass that has been sitting in a barn since the mid 70's . He simply drove it into the barn and parked it before he died and its been sitting ever since. When you wipe the dust off of it this thing really shines! The doors open and close smoother than my Yukon or my Silverado. Is has the 2bbl rocket 350. I will never do an Ls swap on this car. Since everything is original, low miles, no rust, no dents, I'll probably just love it for what it is and keep it original.

    Clean it up, do some maintenance and drive it. Don't restore it. Don't mod it. Pure time machine. So jealous of you right now.
