OLDS C/S - Wierd or What?

I just saw this and couldn't help wondering what the heck is going on here. I know there are 2 different mounting locations for bumperettes (as described in Olds publications) but this goes to the extreme...



Also looks like the 71 has 72 headlight bezels, 75 hood ornament and...72 rear bumper. Claims to be a 71 Supreme with only 39,000 original miles. No documentation to back it up and if that's true, why so many mods?

Gadgets are definitely in. Only the owner want's a Cadillac instead of an Olds? I recognize the Sears in car heater! Used to have one before it burnt up. Have no idea what the thing above the (Poncho GTO) tape player is. ??maybe a thermometer???


No, wait. It is a Cutlass Supreme! Wouldn't be able to tell without the reminder on the door!



If you want to look at the whole thing here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...E:B:SS:CA:1123


IN ALL FAIRNESS: The car doesn't look like the body is all that bad, and I'm sure there's some work to be done if you wanted it to be 'original' again. But not too much. I'm watching to see if it sells. 66OldsNinetyEight, are you looking at this? Might be something your buddy can buy at a decent price, and it's in your area.
