Looks like the Skylark and Cutlass should switch wheels.

Did 454's have oil fill tubes up front? Olds V8's did... though those look like BBC valve covers?

That thing is awesome. I don't think I've never seen a vinyl top on a wagon of that vintage...especially in beige. Beautiful car!
Gotta save some pics before they disappear.

Very nice! On the motor picture, what is next to the A/C compressor and is that a shroud in front of it? Is that for dual A/C some sort of an air compressor?

The thing on fender well is a light for the engine compartment.
May be able to unreel it also.

The thing above the pulley is a shroud, not sure if factory but could be dealer installed. To keep from blowing fluid on hood insulation.

Almost as fascinating is the presence of the factory luggage rack mounted on top of it. I wonder what the assembly line workers were saying about drilling through the pristine fabric.

And it is pretty amazing how good that wagon looks for being "unrestored" and with 116K miles, as the ad states.
