Bex and I went out to dinner tonight and snapped this pic in the parking lot.

I don't know how but I expected you to post a picture of a ricer.

But I doubt that's the reason why Olds. went down. That picture above is why there are retards in the world.

General motors corporate is to blame for sucking all the originality out of oldsmobile.

Press car for 1972 indy 500.



Olds had some mad scientists types building some insane stuff back in the day.
