Story

I LOVE this car! Bought it as a retirement gift for myself in 2020. Unfortunately, health issues forces me to sell. I am the second owner. The previous owner drove it every year until 2019…that was an average of 2075 miles per year! This regular use is probably what has maintained the mechanicals of the car so well. Starts, runs and drives exceptionally well and sits up nice and tall. The Cutlass is ALMOST all original. I added a high end paint job from Custom Dream Rides in Venice, FL. It is the original dark brown metallic paint with THREE separate clear coats between hand sanding. The paint has a deepness to it that will impress you from up close! Also new AC compressor, BF Goodrich WRL tires, dual exhaust, headliner, carpeting and custom mats. LED lighting outside and inside the cabin. I have kept all of the Oldsmobile branding off the car as to not take away the beauty of the mirror like finish. Definitely a cruiser, not a muscle car. But the rumble of the dual exhaust keeps em’ guessing what’s under the hood…a smooth running 260 V-8. It needs the heater box replaced if you live in a cold climate. I bought a new one, but I just bypassed it because I don’t run the heater here in SW Florida. The upholstery is all original and look like new. One small tear on the driver side and seat belt slots need to be repaired (photos included). Radio is period correct but not hooked up. Non smoker, car smells like new. No disappointments beyond what I have described.
