https://www.hemmings.com/stories/its-about-time-1965-oldsmobile-4-4-2/

Well seeing the Dodge Dart ideas of vehicles I figured I would share something on one of my vehicles I bought new - 1965 Olds Cutlass Custom Supreme 442 Convertible , White body , White top , Antique Red interior trim .
 400 cu in , 345 HP , 4 speed transmission , center council , with tack . 3:55 Posi Traction rear , Power Brakes . 6 x 14 rims 
 I bought it new in 65 for $3250 and have 85,000 on it , still setting in garage as need to replace leaking rear brake wheel cylinders . 

 ( the article just tells some history of another car / another restoration but specs on original )

Life lesson: If you’re being chased by a lion, you’re on a horse, to the left of you is a giraffe and on the right is a unicorn, what do you do? You stop drinking and get off the carousel.
