        Hey Mitch,
        If there is one thing I like about your Olds(I'm more of a Buick man) it is the gauges! As soon as I saw it I thought I wonder where I can get one. I'm interested in a cluster if you have extras. Can you post a picture of the back of the cluster or e-mail me one. You can post it over in the General Discussions under my "93 Century 85 to 110 MPH Speedo Upgrade" thread. If your cluster's backside is like the back of mine I'm definitely interested. I'll PM you just in case.

            LordDurock,
            I'm actually talking about upgrading my already upgraded dash. Check out the thread I talked about in my post. The Olds not only has the full gauge package but it also has a tachometer. Sweet! I think that actually the first question is does a '90 Olds have a mechanical speedo or an electronic one. My '93 is electronic.

              Hey, MorMan, that's a nice looking "C-leb"! Where abouts in Columbus are you? I'm off to the west, right off of route 40 (Broad St, National Rd, etc) in West Jefferson. BTW, I believe I might of been the first person to put a firebird spoiler on a Celebrity, at least I didn't know of anyone else at the time. Anyway, bolt one on, it will look great!

                Forgot to mention in the PM, the clusters are completely electronic. ^_^
                What is this & what does pulling it out do?

                                Hey all,

                                I'm new to the board today. I'm Donovan, 19, and a college student at the University of Minnesota, Morris, now home in Ada for the summer. I'm currently driving my sister's black '99 Alero while she is serving in Iraq, but she will be coming home in a few months. Then she'll need her car back and I can drive mine again (my parents prefer me driving a newer car with less mileage to school 2 1/2 hours away).

                                I'm hoping that I can get some major things done in the time between now and August, mostly just appearance-related. The car (Babe) is my parents' old 1992 Cutlass Ciera, 3300 V6, 3-speed auto. They bought her in late '93 with 20,000 or so miles, and she's currently rolling at just shy of 250,000...and she hasn't been driven much since my parents got a 2000 Intrigue in January '06.

                                My first priority is new paint (the original maroon is getting mighty rusty after 15 northern Minnesota winters). Then maybe I'll try doing a little interior work (it's been ravaged by mice while sitting, and is quite faded, to say the least).

                                Anyway, that's a little about myself and my A-body. I would put up pictures, but my parents' 36k dial-up is a bit of a hindrance.
