I've owned many a vehicle , but when I'm not driving my bimmer , I'm driving my Oldsmobile.

She's a stout little thing. Built a '69 block 350 for her with some #8 heads that I had worked on abit , heads aren't the best for lowend , but they make for a fantastic cruise.

Been building a '69 block 455 for about a year now. Should be good for around 4xxhp 5xxtq , was a factory 385 500 engine. Going fuel injected is probably the best part , ahhh cash just flies out the wallet these days.

No wonder I am broke. LOL. In a few years I am thinking of trading in Jeep and BMW for new 340i X drive m-sport lease and going down to one vehicle for myself. The other option is to wait a few more years with both jeep, and BMW, pay off Jeep, trade in BMW and get M3 and keep jeep. Having a Rubicon and M3 would be my dream combo
