new to site
Hi folks, just found this site, so here I am, have a 69 Cutlass Rag top, 350, with Turbo 400 trans. buckets ,console, pwr. windows, ant. & vac. trunk release, all factory. Heard this car was for sale through the "grapevine" in Ottawa, 4 1/2 hour drive & got it before being advertised. Been sitting for a few yrs. in storage, & widow decided to sell it. All new floors & trunk, converted to disc brakes, & Cragar S/S mags which have been sold & a set of American grey spoke now on the car. It sits beside my 51 Pontiac [Cdn] 2 door Torpedo Back, sitting on 86 Cutlass chassis, 358 SBC. tremic TK 500 5 speed, dual quads & 3:42 gears out back. Cutlass won a sponor's choice award this past Oct. in Charlston W.V. at the Doo wop show, was surprised as 886 vehicles were on the Blvd. & it got picked!! Wasn't going to say NO!! Will see if I can ad an attachment?? Not good at computer stuff. Picture of car on trailer was taken when I loaded it for trip back from Ottawa

Thanks , Cutlass was in great shape but one of previous owners had done a 'home" job on door panels & rear1/4 trim panels. I've replaced them with correct "parchment" panels. Engine was a bit rough running but once a tank of fresh " non ethanol" fuel & a few miles it got better & better!!! Have put over 2000 miles on this past summer, & close to 3000 on Pontiac which is a "hoot" to drive with that drive line!!!!! Cutlass has a "blister" on hood, so next is to repair that & add white to raised panels with some pin stripe around it, should add some "BLING: to it???

Panels are from Tamaraz arm rest base [chrome] & pads from Fusick's Panels good quality & fit & less money than other suppliers. Friend in W.V. where I had them shipped said they were better than his from OPG
