A drive in the 69 Cutlass S/Testing self-made headrest mount

Just a little drive in the 1969 Olds Cutlass S. Nothing special, just a glimpse of how the car is driving and doing. Testing out my self-made headrest mount, i think it works pretty well, considering i only spent 20 minutes making it from scrap laying in my garage...

P.S. man, my brake pedal needs some grease, its a squeeky S.O.B!!!! lol

[OldsPowered69]

great sounding car man! what's under the hood? it's so easy to get addicted to the sound of a nice V8 with a great exhaust. this makes me miss driving my '77.

@DJM442 and less than ideal 2.56:1 rear gear ratio

BTW you do know that this shot would be great for a movie, right? Reminds me of Bullitt for some reason. XD

[hardtackjack]

Wow, still a beast. I like your camera rig. It's pretty sweet.

BTW, if you think your brake pedal is annoying, you should hear my odometer...the thing squeaks like crazy, especially on cold days, and with the windows up is excruciatingly annoying.

How'd the paint turn out, btw?

@OldsPowered69 Slow. Got half the hood stripped to bare metal, started on the left front fender, found a lot of body filler from old damage. I think it will just be replaced. Tried to start it, the starter is seized from sitting for 12 years. The motor turns when I spin it by the belts, so that shold be good. Need to build some heavy shelves to hold parts, so I can start tearing this beast apart....
