I started out with a very nice original survivor 66K mile Cutlass convertible. I have lots of paperwork that will go with the car including protecto plate and even an original thank you letter for buying it from the dealer. It started out as a Jetaway column shift car but now is a 5 speed floor shift. I set out to build a car with the ride and drive of a modern sports sedan. It came out the perfect balance. The best comparison I have is to an Infinity G35. Firm and tight but smooth not harsh at all. I have taken neighbors for rides that are not car people and they can’t believe they are in an old car. It’s not what I would consider a show car but most of the time when I enter a show I take home a trophy. Pictures have been used in several publications to date and one not released as of yet. As of now Goodguys Gazette, Journey with Olds (Olds Club or America’s monthly magazine) and an all Oldsmobile calendar have all had pictures of this car in them. Late this spring a new book “How to make your muscle car handle” is coming out and I was told last week by the author that this car was be used in it too.
It’s just a great car that is super fun to drive and turns heads everywhere you go. You will not be disappointed. Over all the car had a complete nut and bolt frame off detailed restoration less paint. The motor is the original 330 4bl 315HP version. As with the rest of the rolling chassis it was cleaned up and detailed. The interior is in great shape for its age original as GM installed it. All the exterior trim is in great shape. The firewall was cleaned up and painted during the frame off restoration. The only cutting anywhere on it is the floor was modified to clear the 5-speed transmission. Pictures don’t do the car justice on the amount of work and details that went into it.

Now since you might be thinking about shipping this car several states way or even out of the country you need to know everything about the car you are about to purchase. I don’t hide anything. The paint is not perfect since this is all original paint except a small spot I see that was repaired on the upper LH fender. Being that’s its original lacquer when you look up close its cracked and crazed all over the top surfaces some areas more than others . It’s very straight over all but there are some light dings and chips on the car. To be a show car it needs paint IMO although some people have acted like I was crazy when I said I wanted to paint it. The top is brand new. In the interior the driver seat is starting to show some slight wear. There are a few small cracks in the vinyl. The last area of slight concern is the carpet. It’s in great shape but the new taller center transmissin hump is causing it to be slightly too short on the sides. Easy to fix with new carpet but I was holding off again to see if I was going to pull in apart for paint. If you like the look of a 442 better with a few pieces of trim and some emblems it would be easy to convert to a tribute/ 442 clone.
You are welcome to inspect in person or call with any questions you may have. You can fly in and drive home or I will help you set up transport that you will pay for. Out of USA buyers are welcome but don't waste my time with scams. The car will not leave my possesion until paid in full. I don't care if your uncle is the King of Nigeria of not
