I got word the media blast will be done tomorrow, so I can go look at the parts after work tomorrow:-)

The downtime has been nice, and my garage still has no lights:-( Bad boy!!

They plan to powder coat Thursday:-) I am excited and terrified:-)

I have a call tonight with an Olds guy who is willing to share his W-31 build plan, and he has Dyno proof of his most recent combination :-) ClassicOldsmobile.com guys are jumping in with spicy and mild W-31 build information :-)

Very cool Ryan!

My media blasting is done, and I am working with the company to finish up a few details.

Looks like two rear body mount holes are a little more deteriorated than I am comfortable leaving as is. (They would never be a problem, and they would never be seen, but that is not the standard I am holding myself to:-)I will have lots of opportunity for compromise in future, but not on the base frame of the car.

Check out how nice my parts are:-) No pitting to speak of:-)

I could see stamps, all over the place:-)

A little delay to weld the mounts and have the parts re-blasted but then I will get shiny parts........... getting impatient:-(

I love clean parts!!

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe
 

Looks very nice! Cant wait to see how they look powder coated! Awesome job again Ryan!

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe
 

Thanks guys!!

I had to pull a dent out of one rear lower control arm, it is ready to reblast.

The rims are ready to pick up. (Prime only)

The frame is ready to pick up and take home for welding. Then it will be re-blasted lightly, and I have asked for more attention to the nooks and crannies.

The small parts will be lightly reblasted and powder coated soon, prolly when the frame returns it will all be done at the same time.

Getting lots of engine build support on Classic Oldsmobile, even Dan Vasic :-) (he doesn't like that I apologized for being a former Chevelle guy...... How Canadian is that? :-)

PS: I still love Chevelles, but only &quot;Identify&quot; as a Chevelle Guy when I own one:-) (not a poser)
