1971 OLDS CUTLASS S ORIGINAL BLUE PLATE RUST-FREE CALIFORNIA CAR BLACK W/PEARL

1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cutlass S Description

1971 CUTLASS S. HARDTOP! ORIGINAL, RUST-FREE CALIFORNIA BLUE PLATE CAR! Has never left the Bay Area. 107,489 original miles. Runs, drives, shifts, steers and stops like a new car. As smooth or smoother than a Cadillac, no kidding. Everything in the car works as it should except for the AC. It blows cool-ish but needs charging. Heater works great. Motor is a 350 with turbo 350 trans. 100% factory original and completely unaltered car except for a color change from brown to black. Professionally performed body and paint, completed this month. All jambs painted. All new seals installed. The paint is glossy without a single nick or scratch anywhere. Once buffed, it would be like glass, but I don't think it's necessary. The body, as you can see in the pics, is incredibly straight! Zero distortion. The car was blocked multiple times and was very straight to begin with. I found only four slight dings before bodywork started. It is now arrow-straight. All side trim and side emblems were removed and holes filled the proper way. So much cleaner looking this way! I left the "S" on the front and the "Cutlass" script and "Oldsmobile" trunk lip moulding on the rear but ALL side trim and scripts have been eliminated. This was a factory white vinyl top car, but the top was severely cracked, so for a cleaner look, I removed the vinyl top and mouldings and filled the holes the proper way. The grille and headlight bezels are 100% perfect. All marker lights are perfect. All outer brightwork (window trim, driprail trim, etc.) is extremely shiny and in perfect shape with zero dings and zero scratches.

The interior is amazing. The seats have been freshly reupholstered in the original pearl material this week, as well as the brand new carpet. The car has been sat in by a driver (me) ONCE since the upholstery was done, and that was to drive around the block to take these pictures. The driver's side carpet was covered with cotton towels for the trip, so the carpet has literally NEVER had a shoe on it. The rest of the interior is all original and 95 to 98% perfect. The dash is amazing. Perfect original pad. The interior door panels and armrests are original and in amazing shape. Super-clean! All of the chrome trim inside is great, as well as the simulated wood. All of the glass in the car is absolutely perfect. The bumpers on the car are the original ones and in good shape and shine pretty well. However, I would personally have them re-chromed or buy re-chromed ones (at almost any larger swap meet for $500 each). It really makes a huge difference going from fairly clean originals to re-chromed ones. Aside from that, I wouldn't do anything to this car. The tires are like new. Alignment is perfect. All bushings in the suspension and steering are near new and won't need replacement for a very very long time. Same with the brakes, nearly new all-around. The car stops on a dime. Drive this beauty anywhere with the confidence that this car will get you there and back in super style, as this car is all original and never hot-rodded or messed with in any way. Clean, clear, open title in-hand along with a bill of sale. Feel free to ask any questions.

Payment is to be made by bank wire transfer only. No exceptions. This is how everyone does it and this is how I have done it for 30 years. Feel free to have someone come inspect the car prior to your bidding. Thank you!
