1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Convertible – Oldsmobile’s fully redesigned 1968 Cutlass models were built on two wheelbases—112 inches for 2-door “Cutlass S” styles and 116 inches for Cutlass/Cutlass Supreme 4-doors. Following up on the somewhat quirky 1968 styling, Cutlass designers developed a frontal appearance for ’69 that would, with annual variation, mark the popular Cutlass through 1972. Revamped body panels and new rooflines followed in 1970. While most 1968-72 Cutlass buyers chose the V-8 series’ standard 350-cid engine, a very limited number selected the inline six, offered through 1971. During 1968-71, the 4-4-2 was a separate performance series. Oldsmobile spurred interest in Cutlass performance with niche offerings such as the 1970-71 SX, powered by a 455 V-8, and the 1970 Rallye, with a 325-hp 350 V8 under the hood. In 1972, the 4-4-2 became a Cutlass handling/appearance package, available with any offered V-8. These cars are typically excellent performers that demonstrate the qualities and engineering that would drive Oldsmobile to third place in the industry by 1972. Sharing many parts with highly collectible 4-4-2 models, the 1968-72 Cutlasses are well served by reproduction parts vendors.

Summer is here and it’s time to drop the top and hit the road! It’s hard to beat a convertible muscle car when the weather is nice and you are ready for a Sunday cruise around town. This Cutlass Supreme convertible was a recent acquisition from a small southern collection. It arrived to our showroom in excellent condition except the top was starting to show it’s age. Therefore we installed a brand new soft top and restored the existing soft top frame in preparation for resale. The Cutlass retains a very original appearance and even the retro AM/FM radio looks facotory. The power top  works perfectly and this classic Olds really drives like new. Features and options include; Rocket 350 V8, Auto w/Console, A/C, Center Console Storage, Chrome Bumpers, Cruise Control, Convertible Boot, Rubber Floormats, Owners Manual, PS/PB, Power Top, AM/FM Retro Stereo, Tilt Steering, Tinted Glass, Trunk Mat, Tire Tools, Spare Tire, 14″ Factory Wheels, and Thick BF Goodrich Raised White Letter Tires!
