Vehicle Description
Here's a nicely appointed drop top vintage muscle car that's all
about fun times and smile inducing driving. Along with the
substantial displacement it's packing under the hood, this 1971
Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme SX convertible also proudly wears its
original colors both inside and out for just the right authentic
vintage appearance.
That eye-catching code 62 Bittersweet shade draped over the
exterior has a definite custom look to it, but it's actually the
same color is came in from the factory. The seldom seen shade is
contrasted with sharp black stripes that run the lengths of its
sides while smoothly passing over the front and rear wheel wells.
From all appearances, the exterior is in strong form already - the
paint has a nice shine and smooth texture to it and the chrome
bumpers both fore and aft look solid and straight - and a session
with your local detailer will take things to an even higher level.
When weather conditions call for it, there's a power black
convertible top on hand to raise into place for protection, and it
sports a glass window so it's far more resistant to the ravages of
the sun than its plastic counterparts.
Inside the doors sits a nicely appointed interior in its proper
Sienna color that's retained its factory appearance, with a split
bench seat in front and a bench seat in back that are looking nice
and well padded. The dash area has been thoroughly restored and
really presents well - the woodgrain accents appear to have been
recently installed, or exceptionally well-protected, it's free of
the evidence of UV damage you so often encounter with convertibles,
and the pad running across its top shows no splits or warpage. The
aftermarket AM/FM/cassette stereo positioned at its center also
functions just as intended. As far overall size is concerned, this
Cutlass really strikes a nice balance - it's compact enough to
convey an athletic, agile appearance but still carries plenty of
space inside. Climb in and you'll find lots of shoulder room on
hand and your backseat passengers will have no trouble getting
comfortable. This sharp looking Olds is a factory air car but the
compressor has since seized and will need servicing to get back
online. The space inside the trunk is substantial and you'll still
find the original jack on board.
Owing to its special SX status, this Olds carries a sizable 455
cubic inch V8 under its hood that teams with a rock solid 3-speed
automatic TH400 transmission. It was the big block member of Olds'
Rocket Engine offerings when it came out and it still wears the
properly badged black air cleaner that offers a nice contrast to
the blue of its block and valve covers as evidence. It sits in a
clean and tidy engine compartment - that badging on its air cleaner
is clear as day and there's no grime buildup anywhere inside.
Featured power brakes that position discs up front make for
low-effort, fade-resistant stops, while power steering is just
another benefit that makes this Olds a lot of fun to drive. It cuts
a very appealing appearance as it rolls on its set of 14" stock
Oldsmobile wheels painted to match the exterior and equipped with
Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires.
