For Sale: 1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass in Morgantown, Pennsylvania

1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Convertible

"Run of the mill cars got you feeling grounded? Spread your wings and soar in a Cutlass S. Want to really send the ordinary into a tailspin? Order yours with bucket seats, center console, G.T. stripes! Price? Right down your runway. Every Cutlass sports an easy to take low price. Escape from the ordinary!" From the 1969 Oldsmobile sale brochure.

For consignment, a 1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass S convertible showing 13,915 miles, but the true miles are unknown. This car has been owned by our consignor since 1991 when it was put into service as a daily driver for a few thousand miles, then reserved for car shows and drag racing events.

Exterior
If the yellow respray doesn't get your attention, the added Hurst Olds style hood scoop certainly will, with its dual nostril intake rising high over the A-body hood. Black bumpers provide a sharp contrast to the yellow and also match the canvas soft top, while 15-inch Appliance Wheels carry staggered size tires for that classic muscle car stance. Dual steel pipes protrude out back and the tail lights are distinctly Oldsmobile. The top is in great shape, and the car is missing much of the exterior trim and our consignor states lots of parts come with the car. Other imperfections include chips, uneven filler, bubbling on lower panels and doors, rusty surface on bottom edge, scratches, and dings.

Interior
A suede like cloth covers the door panels smoothly and simply while black leather bucket seats of a more modern era occupy the front showing some use but in overall decent condition. The rear bench has been redone according to our consignor and is more of a stock configuration. A GT steering wheel presents to the driver with some surface rust on the spokes, leading to the standard, three chambered instrument cluster in black plastic and the mid panel contains the vent levers but no radio. There are some added gauges under the dash and a B&M shifter perched on the transmission tunnel over black loop carpet in decent shape. The trunk is barren and has some typical surface rust.

Drivetrain
Here we have a 350ci V8 from 1973/1974 with a Holley 4-barrel over an Edelbrock intake manifold. It's mated to a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission that routes power to the 12 bolt axle. Chrome valve covers dress up an otherwise standard engine bay and headers are on board to start the exhaust process.

Undercarriage
Plenty of patina in the form of surface rust, some residual oil, and a bit of sludge, but overall, in decent condition. Drum brakes are supplied to all four wheels and the dual exhaust flows through an X pipe and FlowMaster mufflers their way to the back. Suspension is configured as coil springs up front and a 4 link with coil springs in back.

Drive-Ability
The trusty 350 comes to life without hesitation and we move the B&M shifter to Drive and circle this yellow Olds around our test loop where it idles smoothly and handles well, though our tires are from 1993, so we're taking it real slow and simply checking functionality. The brakes feel spongy, and a few things are not working including the horn, heater blower, and reverse lights. All other operational items work as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.

If you grew up in the 80's a project car like this was often owned in our circle of friends. We drove it like we stole it and then spent weekends putting it back together. We didn't really care how it looked, (they never looked this good!), as long as it got us to school and to Main Street cruises on weekends. We were never fortunate enough to have a convertible, so this car has a lot of potential for fun, as is, or brought up to the next level of aesthetics and performance. Totally up to you, the sky's the limit, especially with the top down!
