1972 was the final year Oldsmobile offered the Cutlass Supreme as a
convertible, and the car went out on top. In its last year of
production it became the best-selling convertible in America,
moving 11,571 units and outselling both the Corvette and the
Cadillac Eldorado. It was a remarkable send-off for a body style
that had defined the Cutlass lineup, and it made the 1972 Supreme
convertible instantly significant the moment the doors closed on
production. This one is finished in white with a black power
convertible top and black leather interior, a clean and classic
combination that suits the long, flowing lines of the Supreme body
perfectly.
Under the hood is the 350 cubic inch V8 backed by a three speed
automatic. The Oldsmobile 350 was known as a strong, torquey engine
with good low-end pull and the kind of durability that kept these
cars on the road for decades. It moves this car with the easy,
unhurried authority that makes a cruiser like this genuinely
enjoyable to drive on a warm afternoon with the top down and
nowhere particular to be.
Inside, the black leather interior is finished with wood trim
throughout the cabin, giving the Supreme the upscale character that
separated it from the standard Cutlass lineup. A set of 9000 series
aftermarket speakers rounds out an interior that is clean,
comfortable, and ready to be enjoyed.
The same year this car was built, a Hurst/Olds convertible based on
the Cutlass Supreme body served as the official pace car for the
Indianapolis 500, a detail that puts 1972 in sharp focus as a
significant year for this body style. Only 130 Hurst/Olds
convertibles were ever produced that year, and the standard Supreme
convertible they were based on is itself a car with a fixed and
final production number that will never change. Finding one in
white over black in this condition is not something that happens
every day.
