1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Convertible on 2040-cars

Year:1969 Mileage:103000
Location:

Franklin Square, New York, United States

Franklin Square, New York, United States

My 1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Convertible was purchased by its original owner at Jim Letts Oldsmobile on Peachtree St in Atlanta GA in 1969 it then spent the next 44 years in Buford GA in the same family until it was sold to me by the original owners  grandson

It is a great original  Southern car.  It is unmolested and unmodified just well maintained over the years.

I have original owners manual and warranty card.

Features

350 Rocket  Engine Quadrajet 4bbl Carburetor.

A/C car.. blows cold

Bucket seats and column shift.. Interior is a time capsule..  all original upholstery, minimal wear .

Original GM deluxe seat belts

I added a reproduction GM Deluxe seat belt in back. I have original belt

Car was repainted in its original Glade Green factory color( GM Code 57)  in mid 80’s from what original owners family recalls,  It is showing its age

 Power top was leaking from the pistons when I got it, so I pulled the top cylinder bolts which allow the top to raise and lower manually.

The top material is pulling away from the seams by the door frames, probably can be sewn at an upholstery/top shop,  Car is garaged and  I only drive the car in perfect weather so I just leave it down.

I have 4 stainless steel wheel well moldings not currently  installed but included in sale.

 Even though this is a southern car it does have surface rust in usual A body spots.  Trunk is rock solid, as is trunk drop downs, floors super solid.

I replaced the 215/75/14 tires and original hubcaps that were on the car at purchase  with a  set of SSII (14x6) wheels which I had soda blasted and painted in the correct Argent Grey color  and 4 new 225/70/14 Cooper Cobra radials, they have less than 200 miles on them.  Both sets of wheels and tires go with the car.

I recently have had a full tune up, all new seals and gaskets installed, engine cleaned and detailed. I added the 442 grilles, replaced the old dull T3 Headlights with 4 new sealed bulbs

New Bosch battery with 3 year warranty installed March ‘14

Brakes serviced, with new shoes and cylinders. Brake flush, wheel alignment

New gas shocks

Lifetime warranty form Mavis Tire on all work.

This is a truly amazing preserved original southern car, one that you can get in and drive anywhere.. New owner has plenty of options on what to do... Do nothing and just drive and enjoy.. or do a "driving restoration" while you enjoy the spring-Fall... or Do full body off restoration and triple your investment in this car. With the price of 442's, Chevelle's, and GTO's going through the roof, this is a perfect way to get into a GM A body at a fraction of the cost.

Car is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end auction early.

I will assist buyer with shipping.

I require $1000 deposit made by paypal within 24hrs of auction end, transaction must be completed within 3 days.

 

New York State does not issue titles for cars prior to 1973, so the car will be sold on a bill of sale and signed registration card.

This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]

Thu, 09 Oct 2014

The last time I roped a coworker into an automotive debate, I lost. Resoundingly, I might add. Still, 2,385 voters chose to cast their lots for the Fiat 500 Abarth, as opposed to 5,273 choosing the Ford Fiesta ST, and so I can rest easy in the knowledge that at least 30 percent of you, dear readers, see things my way. I still like to think we have more fun, too.
My loss in the first round of our This or That series, in which two Autoblog editors pick sides on any given topic and then attempt to explain why the other is completely wrong, didn't stop me from picking another good-natured fight, this time with Senior Editor Seyth Miersma. Last time, our chosen sides were eerily similar in design, albeit quite different in actual execution. This time, our vehicular peculiarities couldn't seemingly fall any further from one another: A 1980 Oldsmobile 442 wouldn't seem to match up in comparison to a 1989 BMW 635CSi.
How did we come up with such disparate contenders? Simple, really. Seyth and I mutually agreed to choose a car that's currently for sale online. It had to be built and sold in the 1980s, and it had to be a coupe. The price cap was set at $10,000. The fruits of our searching labors will henceforth be disputed, with Seyth on the side of the Germans, and myself arguing in favor of the Rocket Olds. Am I setting myself up for another lopsided loss?

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.

Ferrari FF pitted against Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser in crazy Generation Gap comparison

Thu, 13 Nov 2014

The folks behind Generation Gap have lost their minds with this latest video. The goal here is to determine the ultimate family cruiser, but the choices are what you would least expect, with a heavily modded 1970 Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser going up against a 2012 Ferrari FF.
You might anticipate an over-40-year-old Oldsmobile to pale in comparison to any modern Ferrari, but this wagon has a ton of secrets under its skin thanks to Lingenfelter. First, it packs a supercharged LS3 V8 with a claimed 650 horsepower and a six-speed manual gearbox. That big upgrade in power is further helped with air suspension and massive Wilwood disc brakes. The result is nothing short of deafening, with blaring yelps whenever the driver even nudges the accelerator.
The alternative sounds just as good, albeit in very different way. The Ferrari's 6.3-liter V12 pumps out 651 hp and 504 pound-feet with a part-time all-wheel drive system. While the FF lacks a lot of the hauling ability of the Olds, it makes up for the deficit in handling, luxury, and in many eyes, simply by having the famous prancing horse on the grille.
