Oldsmobile Cutlass Sedan (only 1980 & 1981 models)

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a very specific model of the Cutlass sedan stated in the title.

Here's some backgound info in case you are interested as to why a german is on this site and lokking for one:

https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums...tml#post980408


The car has to be either the basic sedan (preferred) or the LS model.

Must-haves:
- model year 1980 (preferred) or 1981
- Cutlass sedan (preferred) or LS
- drivable (menas that it starts and runs)
- good condition
- original state with only minor changes or some kind of tune-up
- V8 preferred, V6 is ok, but no diesel
- rustfree or at least as little as possible

would be great if:
- outside color is medium caramel met (color code 63) or light caramel met.
- inside color is tan (beige)
- low mileage

doesn't matter:
- transmission
- minor faults of whatsoever kind


This interior would be perfect!




Does anybody have one of those up for sale, is thinking about selling it or knows someone who does?


Let me know, any help is appreciated!

Whoa! You should time travel to 1980 and order it from the dealer show room. All you need is a Delorean.

Really though, here is a straight sedan:

Yeah, I spotted this one already. Looks pretty clean, especially from the outside. I wouldn't mind the LS version as I didn't find a single base model (not LS). Did you eventually look at it or did you end up just buying your 1987 model?

Love the rims! What I mannaged to research, those are "Super Stock" wheels. Is that correct? Which year do they come from and what are the dimensions?

Thanks in advance.

i never did go look at it because the 87 was blue with blue interior, comperable miles and $1000 cheaper.

my 87 has those SSII wheels and yes they are optional and correct. they made those wheels since the 60s up through the 80s and were on all kinda of oldsmobiles. i believe they are 14 x6 or 14 x7 for the sedans and supremes. the hurst and the 442 got the 15 x7 chromed version. the salon and calais got a 14 x7 chrome version. the rest had trim rings.

Ok, I got one for you, looks like a good one, check out either Hemmings.com or CountryClassicCars.com. at (618)-635-7056. It's a 1980 4 door LS for $4,950, looks like a 6 cylinder. I do think they will ship world wide.


Let them know the person who steered you on over to them j-u-s-t might be interested in that red 1994 Cutlass Supreme Convertible they also have. Might get you a better deal

remember to have the frame rails checked for rusting out before you buy any cutlass of this body style. especially an eastern USA car.

Agreed one million percent. That's a make-or-break statement.
