1973 Olds Cutlass S - No Love

The 1973 Cutlass ‘S’ and Supreme were the nicest looking A-body from the four GM divisions. After that year, because of the stricter bumper regulations, the unique design was not as appealing.
Wonder what the front end would had looked like if the ‘73 model was released in 1972 as planned, prior to the front bumper 5-mph regulation? Though, Oldsmobile designers did the best job out of all four divisions minimizing the 5-mph bumper both in size and aesthetically.
The ‘73 H/O and 442 are a testament to the the design, using styling cues from former years. Interestingly, the black version of the H/O that year had black painted SS-III wheels instead of gold.
