Got a few questions
I have a 1965 olds cutlass F85, it my dads actually. I think it came origanaly with a 330ci motor my father had a new cam put in and had the engine bored 30 over and enitrely rebuilt. He drove it for about 4000 miles and parked it for some reason (he says something to do with the brakes) its been sitting outside for about 10 years hasn't moved. WELL today i got a great idea to unbury it after 2 guys came by the other day and were estatic about the car( i thought they see something in it why not give it a shot). the frame is all solid the body is solid other then the already known to be rotted floor boards the car doesn't look to ruff. Here inlies my question where should i start on the motor? what should be the first thing I do? I've never restored a car before so HELP haha please:cool:
