The Olds. Made new again. Outstanding.

High praise :-)

@jcnme27 5 лет назад

1 of 1 Color combination. That is awesome. My first car was a 73' Cutlass Supreme with the rocket 350. Oldsmobile will always have a place in my heart. Fantastic find Lou! Gorgeous restoration! Two thumbs up and a bow!

@loucostabile 5 лет назад

Glad to read the high praise for this car, and that it brought back wonderful memories for you too :-)

@audieconrad8995 5 лет назад

Fabulous car and restoration Lou. The GM A-body's were so handsome. That 350 with the rear-end combo should've gven that Olds some real low-end grunt. The W-series twin scoop hood gave it a real bad-boy look on an otherwise sleeper looking rig. Overall a great car! Thanks for sharing.

Having owned a 70 Cutlass SX (455 two barrel-gold over tan with black top) and 70 422, (350 four barrel-gold with black stripes), the W31 is one of my bucket list dream cars...Love the color-not a yellow fan but this is striking! Love the dog dish rims too...Another great find Lou-Thanks and Happy Holidays

My baby back in 89 was a 72 white cutlass supreme so I go bonkers whenever I see Olds muscle from back in this time (mainly 70-72). I'll keep hanging on to my dream of owning another 1. God they were good driving cars. Just a touch of class. WTG Lou. Bravo

@rightlanehog3151 5 лет назад

I can't remember seeing such a YELLOW Cutlass before. The yellow wheels really finish off the effect.

@audieconrad8995 5 лет назад

Agreed! Lotsa gold Cutlass's around but no yellows. Yellow in a sense didn't exactly fit into the Old's image...that being said I kinda dig the theme! Especially with the rim hubcap combo - really pops!

@loucostabile 5 лет назад

Agreed, unique color for sure.

@rudolphguarnacci197 5 лет назад

Since many of the comments are about the choice of color and admittedly agree it's a choice they may not have made but still like it leads me to believe that the design of the body is so beautiful that as long as the paint is top notch this car will look fantastic in ANY color. (Now try to imagine a color you'd never put on this car and tell me what you think in the end.)

@rightlanehog3151 5 лет назад

@@rudolphguarnacci197 Our comments about the color are all positive as we are all filled with a sense of wonder by the hue. My recollection tells me that the Cutlass of the late 60s and early 70s was also one of the best cars on the road . Where I live these were daily drivers well into the 1980s which says a lot about their mechanical reliability as well as their comparative ability to withstand rust.

@rightlanehog3151 5 лет назад

@@loucostabile Hi Lou, I wonder if you have a video featuring the dealer catalogue on the Cutlass of this era. It would be good to know exactly how many paint choices there were in those days.

My brother owned one of these cars back in 1980 i think he bought it for around $1800 It was a factory yellow car. We lived in Livonia Mi. he bought it from a guy who lived a few streets over from us, my brother knew it was an ultra rare car when he bought it but he ended up selling it shortly after buying it.

@gatormcklusky5850 Год назад

PS i was younger when he bought it but i remember he said it had a fiberglass hood & decklid, and all kinds of other rare parts
