Vehicle Description
This beautiful Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme convertible was
positioned as a premium offering at the top of the Cutlass range.
During the mid-1970s, the Cutlass Supreme became not only the most
popular Oldsmobile but the highest-selling model in its class. This
truly impressive Oldsmobiles color treatment is the extremely rare
triple white consisting of white exterior, interior and convertible
top. Only 11,571 Cutlass Supreme convertibles were manufactured for
the 1972 run so you can be pretty sure that youll have one of the
few, if any, 72 triple whites still in existence. The engine
propelling this compelling ride is a genuine 350-cubic inch
Oldsmobile, not the generic GM 350 of later years. Back in the day,
each GM division utilized their own, specifically-designed engines.
And Oldsmobile garnered lasting fame by launching GMs first
overhead valve V-8, the legendary Rocket motor of 1949. The Rocket
propelled Olds to many NASCAR wins in the late 1940s and early
1950s. The 350 in this Cutlass is a direct descendent of the famous
1949 Rocket and still makes a strong showing on the street. This
Supreme boasts a full range of options, including air conditioning
converted to 134-A Freon, power steering/brakes, modern radio/CD
player with multi-speakers producing a great sound experience. This
classic also sports an d dual exhaust system with Flow-Masters
producing a melodious exhaust symphony. Since GMs mismanagement of
the brand resulted in its demise after the 1999 model year, this is
one of the few opportunities youll have to own a truly RARE and
almost like-new example of an automotive brand which first appeared
in 1897. 1972 was the final year for the rear-wheel drive Olds
Cutlass Supreme convertible and it was the best-selling convertible
in the U.S. that year, capturing 16 of the market, beating both the
Corvette and Cadillac El Dorado. Nothing more needs to be said!
