My Custom Cruiser found a GREAT new home!

I'm happy gang!

See there are other crazy people in the world! This man showed with a twin of my car, just a year older (91)....with Impala SS wheels, huge Impala SS suspension, 3-inch exhaust that sounds so good it'd make you cry, and a 450hp Corvette LS1 engine under the hood! Wow!

I got to drive it and it MAN IT RUNS! And get this, he currently owns FOUR other Custom Cruisers! Mine will make No. 5! He's a member of the Texas Oldsmobile Club, and LOVES these wagons.

I'm serious, I could not be happier about where it's going, and I made a new friend and wagon-nut contact to boot!

Check out the pics I just took in my work parking lot. We got lots of looks from the folks getting back from lunch!









Now to pick up my new-to-me Roadmaster tomorrow!

congratulations Mike.

Oh and I hope you told him about the forum  

Seen that car on Craigslist before, I do believe...

That was fast, do Crovo's cars move that fast?

That LS1 OCC flat FLEW! It was SO fun to drive, and the exhaust sound was fantastic. BUT it was crying for a 6-spd swap. I'd do that fast!

I told the buyer about this and the Longroof forum. Hope he joins up. I'm going to his house tomorrow to see all the Custom Cruisers. Looking forward to it!

And yes, pretty amazing I've never met this guy before. He does not live far off or anything. Told him he needs to come out to the Cruise-Ins!

Great job Mike, you sold her in a hurry.

That's awesome for you, dude!

And yeah, I've seen that car before. I think it was on eBay for a bit. Maybe I saw it on CL or ISSF, too?

Yep it was on the issf . I drooled over it for a long time . Lol it made me want a ls motor in my car . If you can get pics of his exhaust set up I would really like to see it .

I has 3-inch single exhaust front-to-rear, and the lower right edge of the rear bumper is notched for the exhaust tip. Not sure if I liked that mod, but it sounded amazing.

Good job re-homing it Mike, good to see it's going to an OCC sanctuary!

Very cool! And I wish I could have been along for that ride!!
