Interesting W31 "facts"

epay item 121108145493

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Oldsm...#ht_500wt_1182

"This 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme W-31 is a great project car. With a new GM Performance Crate Motor with less than 2000 miles, it is a great place to start. The motor is 350 Cubic Inches and is rated at 330 Horsepower. The car also has four (4) brand new tires on it. There is also a brand new thermostat and gasket and a coolant flush was just performed as well as an oil change. It also has a performance billet aluminum radiator and a K&N performance air filter with a K&N Filter Top. It has an Automatic transmission, 3 speeds forward and 1 reverse. W-31 means it has a slightly different trim inside and out and a better suspension setup than a base Cutlass. It needs minor body and paint work and there are a few small rust spots. Nothing major however. The serial number on the engine Indicates that the motor alone cost $5,500 new.

As this car is on our Lot we cannot guarantee that no one will stop in and buy it during this auction. We reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to call us at (570) 487-3335 and ask for Joe or email us right here."

Deep is the Bullshed, with this one!

It can't be a Supreme, it has headers on it!

I seem to be doing that a lot lately, so much that I'm not going to waste my time doing it anymore.

Octania's eyes-r-brown, bullshed car reminds me of the '72 SX clone on Ebay last week with the typical incorrectly installed headlight bezels but this SX clone was a "radio delete drag pack car ... only 72 produced in 1972" and had the "SX dash with the tic-tac-toc". I guess tic-tac-toc is a tochometer that spews tic tacs (?). WTF ... i just can't bear to watch anymore.

You guys are being a little unfair. The radio surround and the decals on the radiator top plate make this deal solid. Sarcasm included (r)
