Hello everyone... My name is GaryC and I am from NJ... I am new to the Cutlass ownership. I have been around cars for sometime and was the founder and president of the NJ Monte Carlo Club in 1999. I am also one of the founders and the chairman of Monte MadneSS (
www.MonteMadneSS.com) which is an all Monte Carlo Show held yearly in DE.
I have always loved the a-bodies but really love convertibles and late 60's to early 70's convertibles are very very very pricey. Well this past weds I found an affordable 72 Cutlass Convertible The car needs work but it's all there.
The story of the car is that the person whom I purchased it from (a lawyer)bought the car in 1995 and did a full restore in 1997 the car was used for a few years and then parked in a gage till last July when it was moved out of the garage and left in the dirt!
The car is all there and there are no dents or dings. passenger door has some rot on the inside lip but it not bad. The car has rust bubles in a few spots but nothing threw. The frame has surface rust butis very solid. The car needs brake lines and an exhaust to be drivable. The motor was replaced in 97 with a jasper series 2 350 rocket motor it has around 35,000 miles and runs strong.
Car has white bucket seat interior with console and a whilte top, air, inside trunk release, power drivers side bucket seat, power door locks, Doors close better then a new car!
I have a couple pics taken with my camera phone of the car when I picked it up last weekend. I need to get on the net so I can post them
I am looking for places to by parts from interior to engine and everthing in between so if you know of someone or some place please share
Thanks
Gary
