 Just finished another wallpaper, more to come soon!



Dec 7 2005
 Now have the PDF's section up (under media), if anyone feels like converting some Oldsmobile stuff they have into PDF format, go ahead and email it to me... next section to do is the 'text documents' section.

Dec 3 2005
 Put up the logo's portion of the Media section, you can browse through that here... of course I'll be adding more as time goes by. Glad the year is almost up, this page is getting quite long!!

Nov 27 2005
 Added the 'zebra' cars to the concepts section and made the adverts section easier to navigate.


Nov 25 2005
 Introducing the "Outright Olds Media Index". I will be adding a lot of stuff in this section... previously it just had wallpapers, go check it out at; the Outright Olds Media Index.

Nov 2 2005
 Totally changed how the 'backend' of the site works. I was using frames, but there were disadvantages to that, now the site uses SSI. With the new setup, you can bookmark any page in the site and come back to it later. I think and hope that it makes things easier for everyone. I'll be working on little tweaks here and there as well related to this change over. Also added 3 more cars to the concepts section.

Oct 28 2005
 Did up two more 'Outright Olds Original' wallpapers in the media section. The 1995 Olds Aurora wallpaper designed by myself, and the 2000 Intrigue OSV designed by my girlfriend.

Oct 21 2005
 Added a bunch of concepts and added to what was already there, also added some descriptions as to what some of the vehicles featured.


Oct 19 2005
 Added over 20 advertisements. Also re-organized them since there is quite a collection now!


Oct 16 2005
 Added the Oldsmobile Viking to the Model History section. Also re-organized the forums instead of lumping things into 3 main groups! Its not your fathers forum anymore lol!

Oct 14 2005
 New forum style to go better with the rest of the website, people have been joining up, so I thought I'd make it more pleasant to look at!


Oct 12 2005
 Added a couple of things recently, eye candy type things. One thing is the side bar at the main page, really just to fill out the empty space. The other is a really neat widget that connects to flickr (by Yahoo!) and downloads the newest posted pictures with Oldsmobile in the decription tag.

Sept 29 2005
 The Outright Oldsmobile Registry is back! I now have it in a format that I am 100 percent confident I can easily backup and restore. Note to those of you who had registry entries before, I will be adding you again and now you can feel free to submit a picture to me as well!

Sept 21 2005
 I moved the site to a new server offering more space for the same price. After the move, I've found it difficult to import the saved registry data (which I still have) from backup. Since the registry wasn't proving too popular, I'm taking another direction with it and offering the ability to have a picture. I'll be setting up a basic form for adding a car to the registry that will get emailed to me and I will add it manually along with your picture. Keep checking the registry page to see whats going on.

Sept 8 2005
 I've added some pictures to 1981-1989, usually I'd wait until I have a picture for each basic model - per year, but its hard to find pics for these years, and might take a while to find all of them.

Aug 26 2005
 Introducing the Model History section finally up, I've started this section with the Final 500 series of cars.

Aug 10 2005
 Site redesign! I hope everyone likes it. The old design was limiting in what I could add for content, and I believe it was time for a fresh new look.


July 31 2005
 Added Cutlass Ciera Holiday '84,'85,'86 to the model list, thanks for the email Frank! This trim was top end for the Ciera line those years.


July 22 2005
 A whole new section under History added! Entitled "Prominent People" a few key people who had influence on Oldsmobile history. Click on the name and it will take you to a short description of what they have done. Added the Olds Pirate to the Concepts and Prototypes page.

July 16 2005
 Just a few things, added a couple of links, also added on Advertisement from 1937. Added some badges/antipixel icons on first page, feel free to use the Outright Olds badge on your site - please upload on your own server - thx.

July 2 2005
 Got that book I ordered June 21st - must get it if you are into Oldsmobile. Finished 1981 to 1984 model listings. I'm testing something that you will notice has been applied to 1995 to 2004, and here is the 'key':
* First time model or option was available
(compared to previous year or years).
* Last time model or option was available
(compared to the upcoming year).
I may or may not add this to the rest of the models depending on your feedback, so email me and let me know what you think!

June 29 2005
 Two things, made the Outright OIds t-shirt poll open to anyone, even people who are not registered. Second thing is the 2007 Oldsmobile-to-be topic I have started in the forum check out the pictures!...

June 21 2005
 Ordered the book I added to the Emporium on the 5th, should be a very interesting read! Also just added 2 new ads from 1939 and 1946 to the Advertisements section.

June 14 2005
 1) Re-did the media section to fit more in less space. Wallpapers that I have made are grouped at the top - in total there are 10 new wallpapers (mine and others).
2) In the concepts section I've added 3 year 2000 OSV cars/van.
3) Also added a post in the forum showing a new Outright Oldsmobile t-shirt, was wondering if there was any interest in it.
4) Added the '87 Calais GT 2&4 Door, thanks to Corey in New Brunswick for pointing that out. Unsure if they had the GT Calais' in other years too..

June 5 2005
 Added another book to the Emporium, its out of print so, you can only get it used. Got the business cards I mentioned earlier, look nice. Also got a bunch of Oldsmobile brochures and ads from eBay, will probably be scanning them in and putting them up here for wallpapers or under the adverts section.

May 23 2005
 1) Completed the 1985 through 1989 model listings, also found a source for 1970 to 1984 models, not sure how complete it is, if anyone sees something missing I'd appreciate an email.
2) Since the model lists are getting a bit long, I've added an index at the top of the 1980-2002 page, you'll see it on other model lists in time.
3) Ordered some business cards for Outright Oldsmobile, will hand out to people driving Oldsmobiles, possibly get more cars in the registry! :)
4) Added some 'order' to this updates page.

May 20 2005
 Pictures for 1990 and 1991 cars finished.
Now getting into cars that you don't see much on the road anymore, kinda exciting..!

May 11 2005
 Started the Outright Oldsmobile Registry, still working on something to clean up this page!


May 1 2005
 Added pictures for 1992 cars. Thinking about adding a text only - all encompassing (all models/years) Oldsmobile Registry. Also looking to make this updates page look a bit cleaner perhaps with a calendar or something.

Apr 8 2005
 Added the 1991 Achieva concept, and added an Olds ad from 1938.



Feb 6 2005
 Finished with the pics for the 1993 cars...



Jan 30 2005
 Put up the '54 F-88 concept sold in the Barrett Jackson auction - concepts section.


Jan 26 2005
 My first post this year!! I've been quite busy, made a whole other website, also starting a business of providing webspace (http://www.thinkbk.com/) AND took vacation for a week in Cancun Mexico. I will try to keep at this site, get some more pics going - I haven't forgotten about Outright Oldsmobile!
