1970 cutlass post coupe
#4
Olds made a total of 23,959 A-body Sport Coupes in the 1970 model year, About 11,000 were F85s, about the same for Cutlass S, and the rest were the 1688 442s. Sport Coupes were the loss-leader models. They were unpopular when new because everyone wanted hardtops. That doesn't necessarily make them "rare and valuable" now. Holiday Coupes look better. And before we get on the "lighter weight" claim, the difference between the Cutlass S Sport Coupe and Holiday Coupe for 1970 was 39 lbs according to NHRA stock class weights - 3555 lb vs 3594 lb. That's about 1.5% difference.
