For those looking for that "rare" 1971 W31 ...
... here it is.

Cutlass Supreme
Came in three colors
Last year of W-31
Old's
Anyway, aside from the misinformation (or just plain B S), it looks like a nice car.

[QUOTE=Finn5033;490192]Looks like he changed the add to a cutlass supreme. For those of us that don't know, what were the issues with the post?[/QUOTE
It wasn't the post per say, more like the ebay sellers claim.
#1 Cutlass Supreme, actually an #87 F-85,S or 442 body less converts
#2 W-31 engine??? Looks like everyone here thought is was stated as a W-31, 2 problems W-31 option 68-70 only plus it has a Z in the VIN which should be Fremont build, W machines only M or Lansing builds only.
#3 Three colors only, I think most color combos were available to any W machine.
Still as few people said, appears to be a nice looking car except for the missing hood locks.

Yep....now he's calling it a Cutlass Supreme when it's a Cutlass S. He also has it listed with "original" hood stripes. which they aren't, they're covering the entire hood scoop. I don't think they added the pinstripe outline, either.
also just noticed the 12 bolt differential. Unless it was changed, it's not original either.
