71 Cutlass Wagon in Colorado

Omicron · 04-26-2008, 03:39 PM

Looks to be pretty nice, and no reserve. I'm so tempted to go get it but have no more parking spaces.

So I thought I'd share this with other members who might be interested:

That thing is actually really nice. My neck would hurt after driving in reverse from CO however.

Yep, no kidding - great visual tho! LOL!!!

Anyway, see why I'm so tempted? Boulder's like 15 minutes from me, so I could trailer it... arg.

That is a really nice car. Too bad it isn't closer to me. I would bid on it.

That is a big Cutlass.

Wish it was one, my wife's sister lives in Louisville and my sister lives in Leadville. If it was a Cutlass I would dump it one of their driveways for a while then strip it on vacation this summer, they are liberal enlightened types so I would think it would be cool for me to do my thing.

I think Leadville is about 10,000 feet, the thing would need chains and oxygen to get there but It would only be half disabled then. If you went up in reverse you could coast back down in forward, think of the great gas mileage you would get.

LOL yeah, but backing up mountain roads sounds terrifying to me, to say nothing of in a big 'ol boat of a station wagon, which are a bitch to back up even under the best of circumstances!

I think Jesse should go out there to meet Paul, and you two should go see it. Jesse could buy and could trailer it to Puals where you two would fix the transmission and then Jesse could drive it back to my place and give it to me for my birthday. Yeah! Actually guys, isn't that a Custom Cruiser? Since it has a third row seat it would be a seven passenger and I don't think the Cutlass based wagon had third row seat available. And the tail lights look like 98 style.

I think that's a great idea! Only problem is, its sold now (to some lucky slob who wasn't me), for $605.

Scrap cars are up to almost $300 a ton here.
That car could have been an awesome $5 lawn ornament!!

Colorado Oldsmobilers.....
You have failed me.
