1969 Cutlass (Craigslist find)

I picked this old thing up today. I bought it from a guy in Atlanta. The car came with the protecto-plate, original California black plates, owners manual, jack, etc. The original radio is still in the car and it works as well.

Questions:
1. Will 1972 Cutlass front disc brakes fit this car?
2. Will 1972 Cutlass fan shroud fit this car?
3. I also have the dual exhaust manifolds from a 70 Cutlass. I am planning on replacing the single exhaust with dual exhaust. Any thoughts.
4. It has black clothe interior, the passenger seat looks really nice, but the driver's side needs recovered. Is the clothe still available?
5. Will my 1972 Cutlass air breather pass if I paint it red and place it on this car.

I want the car to look as original as possible.

Thanks

lucky you, the POP still there!

Questions:
1. Will 1972 Cutlass front disc brakes fit this car
===
Yes

2. Will 1972 Cutlass fan shroud fit this car?
===============
69-72 should be the same


3. I also have the dual exhaust manifolds from a 70 Cutlass. I am planning on replacing the single exhaust with dual exhaust. Any thoughts.
==================
No such thing? Cutlasses had small blocks, which had #1-4 xst manifolds. They capped the crossover inlet on the RH manifold for with duals. BB cars had DE manifolds.


4. It has black clothe interior, the passenger seat looks really nice, but the driver's side needs recovered. Is the clothe still available?

can't answer that one

Pretty sure the air cleaner is the same except for the color. You may be able to simply trade your black one for a red one.

Cool! I thought brakes would work, but knowing before taking the them off the car is a lot more reassuring. Thanks
