1970 W-30 in Oregon

This isn't mine, and the pictures are terrible, but if this is the real deal, it might be interesting to someone. I wish I had room for another one. That would look great parked next to the convertible!

Very nice looking car. Wonder why the wheels were 'greyed out'? That's minor. Great color combo and some nice features. Is 22,5K a good deal price for that car? My gut says yes if it's an original with docs. Probably even if it doesn't have docs.

Looks like he has a nice project car sitting next to it too!

I've met this guy, back in the early 1980's, a serious Oldsmobile person. Supercarsunlimited gives him credit for the references in their book "By the Numbers". There's another thread here of several cars he's selling. Not sure what's going on in his life, but it looks like he's downsizing his collection. John

looks like a great car for the money, the grey is probably covering up a different set of rims that are on there now. I've seen that for sale for a bit now, surprised its not gone already

that's a great list of classics.....now for the "good news"....I got the OK from my better half for the Gold '69 Cutlass S for $9,500....bad news is I have to sell our (my) van and motorcycle to pay for it. This is VERY tempting...I hardly ever ride anymore and the van is only used for rare outings.

Talk about bad timing.

I sold my motorcycle (we were together for 10 wonderful years!) and my Barracuda (a 5 year resto) under the same rule from my wife, to buy my Cutlass. The convertible eases the pain of not having a bike a little bit, I have more room in the garage, less crap to take care of, and I can take the family out with top down, which is awesome! ( I know the S isn't a Convertible, but it looks like a sweet car!)
I haven't regretted it for a second. I love my Olds!!...Just something to think about...

The car is real. Dave (the owner), is a very serious Olds collector and enthusiast.
