Default hey guys new from canada

hey guys hows it going, im from st.catharines ontario in canada, just figured i'd try to find a little more forums on my car, i was over on g-body forum.com, but the input, advice and support just isnt over there, not sure how it is over on this board, but ill find out, soo anyways.... ill tell ya what i got i guess, it's an 87 cutlass supreme, with the viynal top, 305 sbc, not sure what trans is in it, i don't have overdrive, the frame is solid, the guy who had it before me was going to restore it and give it to his child, but he never got around to it, so it ended up in my hands, it was stored inside for 7 years, then he parked it outside to take pics an post on kijiji, then i called and 24 hours later it was in my driveway, it needed a new tank, & sending unit, after i spent the money to get those items, i also included 25 feet of each sized tubing, a fuel pump, and a new filter, so pretty much the whole fuel system is new, the front calipers were seized up, so i went and grabbed 2 remannd calipers & put them on, got the brakes bled but i wanna do the rear drums, springs, cylinder& lines in the back, theni moved onto stripping the interior out & ended up finding some stuff i didnt like... like the 3 massive holes in the floor, 2 by the drain plugs & 1 big one just to the left of my brake pedal going back down towards the drivers seat, so my seats & carpet are out now, had my headliner out because it was sagging, took the fabric off, got all the foam off & sprayed spray adhesive & followed by fabric and a smoothing object (i used my bank card) and i believe it turned out pretty well.... anyways my ramblings can stop now,& ill post pics in a few

i currently have all the brackets off the motor, they've been sanded & painted with a satin black coating so it's starting to be a little more cleaner, i still need to get the alternator bracket off the motor, but the waterpump pulley is inthe way & i don't really want to pull my fan off...next is the fun pics of the floor.... new post in a few
