AND PRESENTED CONVERTIBLE Launched in 1961 on the compact F-85,
Oldsmobiles Cutlass really hit its stride in 1964 as an upscale
mid-size model line on a full frame. Success in a crowded market
grew by leaps and bounds when Olds mid-size lineup received a major
restyling for 1968 and two chassis lengths a shorter 112-inch
wheelbase for two-door models and a 116-inch wheelbase for
four-doors and wagons. The new design was particularly attractive
on the two-doors, with the sleek, aircraft fuselage-inspired design
theme continued through 1972. While a six-cylinder engine was still
standard on the F-85/Cutlass line for 1968, most buyers opted for
Olds Rocket V-8 engine, available as a high-torque Turnpike Cruiser
2-barrel unit or with 4-barrel carburetion. GMs new
Turbo-Hydramatic 3-speed automatic transmission was now a
high-demand option. Today, while the 1968-72 models are very
popular with collectors for their style, drivability, and
noticeably better build quality than many other cars of the era,
the first-year 1968 models are relatively rare in the
classic-vehicle marketplace. This gorgeous 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass
Convertible is a prime example that is virtually impeccable inside
and out. Finished in Red over a Black interior with front bucket
seats, highlights include a power-operated convertible top, center
console, radio, and three-spoke steering wheel. A 350 CI Rocket V-8
engine and floor-shifted automatic transmission deliver plenty of
power for easy cruising, along with power brakes and power steering
for a great drive whether the top is up or down. Detailing is
excellent throughout the car, including the engine and underhood
area, consistent with proper care and maintenance. Riding on a set
of chrome-rimmed road wheels, this top-notch 1968 Cutlass
convertible includes an original owners manual, convertible-top
operation manual, and sales brochure. Contact us today for complete
