Hello fellow members.
My name is Shayne. I live in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada and although I'm new to this forum, I'm not new to H bodies. I've had several over the years and it's been a long time since I last owned one. However, I stumbled upon a 78 Oldsmobile Starfire and I just had to have it. It's from Georgia and I found it at a body shop in Breslau, Ontario, Canada. I pretty much got it as you see it pictured here. No interior, engine , transmission, tail lights, etc. It was a V6, auto and A/C car. Too bad I don't have any A/C brackets, etc. I'll save the story of how I found it for a later time. Now, it's very solid, not pretty at all and it's only a rolling chassis. It had an aftermarket sunroof installed and the left rear quarted was damaged at one time. Notice all the drill holes in the quarted panel? And the flywheel used as a steering wheel? Nice. I did cut up a 79 Spyder recently so I have a nice stock roof and quarter that I'll graft over sometime soon. I just quickly installed S10 spindles and axles so I could roll the car onto the trailer seeing as we moved. Here's a picture of the car the way it sits as of today. Like I said, not pretty but it's mine. I will be looking for parts and I also have a few parts that I know I'll not be using. I'll keep checking out this forum and following many threads as there seems to be so much talent here! I'm just finishing off a Fiero that I've swapped an Ecotec driveline into. Then I'll be looking into the Starfire. Until then, take care my cyber friends.
