1970 70 OLDSMOBILE F85 FASTBACK COUPE CUTLASS OLDS 442 CHEVELLE GTO SKYLARK F-85
1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass F-85 Description
This is a factory 350 / Auto / AC car. Purchased from the original owner who drove it up until early this year when she was put into a nursing home. Truly a Barn Find / Time capsule / survivor. Great running condition. Original upholstery. Odometer shows 13k and this could BE 13k, 113k, etc. Throughout the original service records I can see that the odometer showed 6k in 1998, so it went 7k miles in 20 years. The car spent its entire life in Knoxville/Maryville Tennessee and we get around 5 days of snow a year so not much rust. Some surface rust is around it but no real structural rust. May be original paint. Comes with Original manuals, certicard, original dealer invoice and receipt.
Car is located in Knoxville TN. Clean Title on hand. Call (805) 405-0765 with any questions. I have hundreds of photos I can send over too. $500 deposit required when purchasing.
MECHANICAL350 Engine with original carburetor works well. I'd put money on that its numbers matching/original as it even has the stock gold valve covers!Transmission shifts smoothPower SteeringManual Brakes4 wheel drum brakesE brake works wellThe car sometimes has a belt squeal at startup but I'm sure the belt just needs to be tightened. I would replace it as well.

INTERIORLooks to be original upholsteryOriginal lap and shoulder seat beltsCoat hooks in placeOriginal Dealer or Factory installed "Oldsmobile" branded rubber floor matsFactory AC appears to be all there and air kicks on from the thermostat but doesn't really get cold. Not sure if it is R12 or was converted to R134AHeater works wellHeadliner is original and complete but one seam across in the rear is ripped so the 2 flaps are pointed down. You can see under the headliner that the underside of the roof looks clean with no rust as this is not a factory vinyl top car. Cardboard headliner about it is also in place.
