Vehicle Description
This 1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme is a nicely preserved, muscle
car convertible that would make anyone a great summer cruiser! For
many years, Oldsmobiles were known for their distinctive and
elevated exterior trim, very plush interiors, and fantastic
"creature comfort" options, which gave the GM marque a luxurious
reputation. Oldsmobiles were nicer than a Chevrolet or a Pontiac,
though not as flashy as a Cadillac. Introduced on September 10,
1970, the Cutlass Supreme was the highest-trimmed intermediate
level Oldsmobile in its 1971 passenger car lineup, sitting above
the standard Cutlass and mid-range Cutlass "S". The 1971 Cutlass
Supreme also marked the second to last year a convertible was
offered in a Cutlass until it was revived in the 80s. With standard
equipment such as a woodgrain dash and a deluxe steering wheel,
along with a "Rocket" V8 engine, it was clear that Olds was
targeting younger buyers who were seeking a car that was luxurious
and sporty yet affordable. That combination of sportiness,
elegance, and affordability worked wonders for Oldsmobile since the
Cutlass Supreme was the best-selling trim level in the Cutlass
lineup, and the Cutlass Supreme Convertible was the best-selling
convertible for Oldsmobile in 1971 with over 10,000 produced. This
particular Cutlass comes to us from a southern-based collector who
was said to have owned the car for over 30 years. Under the hood on
this '71 Cutlass Supreme is a 350 Cubic Inch "Rocket" V8 paired
with a single 4 barrel carburetor that pushed out 260 horsepower
when new. The 350 Rocket V8 is backed by a Turbo Hydra-Matic 3
speed automatic transmission ensuring that just about anybody can
take this convertible for a spin around the block. Exhaust exits
the Rocket V8 via a dual exhaust setup that gives this Cutlass
Supreme a nice throaty sound. Being that this convertible is an
Oldsmobile, and a higher-trimmed model at that, it comes loaded
with options! With power brakes, bringing this classic Olds to a
stop is made much easier. Power steering is also a welcome addition
since it makes maneuvering this Olds in and out of tight spaces at
the local drive-in or car show an absolute breeze. Speaking of a
"breeze," this Cutlass Supreme is also equipped with factory air
conditioning that has been converted to an R134a setup so that you
can stay cool even on the hottest summer days. Riding on a set of
BFGoodrich radial tires that are wrapped around a set of Super
Stock mag-style wheels, this 1971 Oldsmobile has that muscle car
look and a fantastic ride. The exterior on this 1971 Cutlass has
been refinished in a beautiful Cameo White that is accented by
light blue pinstripes. The white vinyl power convertible top is in
fantastic condition and is operated with ease via the simple flick
of a switch. The interior on this 1971 Oldsmobille is gorgeous! The
front and rear bench seats are upholstered in blue vinyl with blue
velour inserts. The woodgrain dash, door panels, and deluxe
steering wheel all look great as well and appear to be in their
stock configuration. The dash is equipped with a 120 MPH
speedometer, fuel gauge, and clock, as well as indicator lights for
the parking brake, engine temperature, oil pressure, and generator
charging. The original radio has been upgraded to a Pioneer
AM/FM/Cassette system so that you can listen to all of your tunes
while cruising down the road. Whether you're buying your first
classic car or you're adding to your existing Oldsmobile
collection, this 1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme would make an
excellent choice. Give us a call today!
