I think your asking...
Did Oldsmobile build any convertible Cutlass in 1973?
No.
Only ragtop in 1973 was the Delta 88.
1972 was the last year for GM A Body Convertible.

I saw a '69 Delta ragtop last weekend, the guy was hinting that he would sell it. He wanted me to drive it, which I did, it was in rough shape and needed lots of work but I might have bitten on it except he was expecting too much. The '73 Delta ragtop is a nice car but my favorite is the '70 98, now THATS a car.

I like the 69 and 70 big Olds as well.
I would take an 88 or 98.
A buddy of mine has a 70 98 Conv and a 69 88 Conv.
I have driven both and like the 88 better.
Both have 455's with 4bbl and air.
I think the lighter 88 feels a more nimble.
I also like the disk brakes better than my car's drums. I would like to put disks on mine but do not want to give up the original wheel covers.
