Come along with us on the First part of The Big Trip.
Something brother Steve has been dreaming about since the early days of owning his '69 F85 W-31. Over years of ownership, research, phone calls, documentation filing, dead ends, limited info 55 years later to the day we find ourselves in Tallahassee FL meeting the Original owner of The OG at the Original Selling dealership on the day he purchased the car brand new! A once in a lifetime experience and bucket list item achieved!
Follow along for Part 2 and Part 3! Make sure to check out our previous videos giving some history on Steve's W-31 and our other projects we have going on.

Good morning Mr B thanks as always for watching. Yeah the old dealership thing is always a very interesting . This is it! Part one of the big trip.
You'll be waiting a while for the Rallye 350 project im afraid. We have plenty to do before that.
-steve
That’s fine the Rally 350 is in good hands you & Joe will do right by it ! When time allows Mr. Jones is waiting ! 👀😎👍👀😎👍
Whenever it becomes a sports bar, it should be built with an automotive theme. A few Oldsmobiles on display, car couches, vintage GM parts and empty vintage GM chemical cans etc.

Happy anniversary to the OG. Very cool you have your first car. So many of us sold or wrecked our first cars. Take care guys.

Good morning. I took a look at your car. wow, that is just gorgeous. I would love to have a talk sometime about the very original owner and what he was all about. I have always been interested in learning more about what type of person bought what type of car. This was a very specific purchase.
Maybe you can send us an email sometime so we can connect more directly. Thanks so much for playing along.
-steve

Got it thank you I will contact you shortly Just watching part 2 of your video great stuff
I have a very similar car (Aztec Gold ‘69 W-31 post) and a story that is also quite unique. If you’re interested, let me know. Your subscribers would probably love to see and hear about it.
Mr Siltman!!!!! I am quite familiar with your car. An amazing piece - let there be no doubt. We are honored to know that you have taken the time to watch some of our material. Thank you so much. You and I will connecting soon enough I'm sure.
Until then....
-steve
It's also under Rich Pontiac Guy S.
Great. this is how I found it
What mufflers are on the car?
Hello again, I actually get asked that a lot. That car runs Hooker Super Comps, and has a complete American Thunder series Flowmaster system that's probably close to 30 years old.
H Pipe, 2 1/2 " with 40 series mufflers.
-steve
I have same car except its black and never on or in trailer 36 k 4 speed
And 2 w30 they are to be driven but my machine shop stays busy with
Ruined scared to drive engines that a good drive could have prevented trips in excess 300 miles 4 times a year is best .. cant fix stupid
Wow You have a W-31 and Two W-30's ? That's great stuff!!!
Would love to learn more about them.
Yes, I tend to agree, we drive these things as much as we can. Just did a nice 80 mile ride with a few of them on Saturday as a matter of fact.
However, trailering from NY to Fla. and back but driving the W-31 all around each town we were at was the absolute right decision - no doubt about it.
2700 miles on the truck round trip in 10 days.
Thanks for watching and please feel free to email us some pictures of your W cars if and when you can.
Thanks so much
