I like it. Not enough to drag it home and fix it though.
Good luck friend.

I like it alot but already have a garage full............of bills anyways LOL I would like to have a 5 speed car with this body, why do they always come up when not in a good place

ragtop olds

what type of clutch linkage is on this car? conventional z bar/ rod type , or hydraulic? sorta tossing around the idea of a big motor/4 speed, sleeper type car.

Akoostics

I do not know how to answer the clutch linkage question properly, but I will try to explain what I have seen.

It is a series of metal links bound together for pivoting action. There is a rod pushing against the fork.

Hope this helps.

Car drives pretty much like new, drivetrain, suspension and steering are all solid.

if it is the same as my malibu was it would be the z-bar linkage I will grab a pic, of all parts you need for at least the conversion

I did not include this in the original listing so I thought I would add to it here.

I will help with 'shipping' if needed. The car drives great so I can meet someone somewhere within a reasonable distance or extra compensation.

Just had the carburetor rebuilt just because it was old (never been worked on)
starts and runs great.

Everything is negotiable.

I don't think this car is in a bad place Limey LOL. It looks to be only 2 hours from a good home. I used to have a 76 5 speed 442 and I wish I had it back. This Cutlass Supreme is very tempting to say the least.

Limey

No the car is not in a bad place just my financials are in a bad place just like the rest of America

oldsfromyell

Trust me I know how you feel about the current state of finances across the country. I am in the same boat. Maybe we can all keep our heads above water for awhile longer. No harm meant in my previous posting.

Nice cutlass...very tempting indeed!

oldsfromyell

I can't wait to see pics of your car Kelvin after the restoration is done.from the pics posted it is already a damn nice car with a great color combination.

Redog

I gotta agree!!

I like the 78 and up Cutlass, but that 76 is very tempting

That 76 is older than me (I'm a 77 model )

macrover

Thanks for the compliments!

I can't wait to see my car either....lol It's going to be a long process to say the least. I'll keep everyone posted on my progress.

Akoostic's 76 is nice and rare. If I had the extra $$$$, I'd have another cutlass next to mine.
