Well an add came up on marketplace and a feller was parting out a 53 olds with a rocket 303 and it had a standard trans which sparked my interest. I was undecided if I was going to take just the motor or both and decided to take what was left of the Oldsmobile 88. Now it's time to see if I can get the motor from stuck to running and maybe even take what's left of the Olds for a drive.
