Touching story about a man and his mom's Oldsmobile
This might be behind a paywall, but it is a wonderful story about a man who tracked down and bought his mother's 1971 Cutlass Supreme convertible.

That was amazing, wasn't it? It sounds like the previous owner who bought it from the guy's mother's estate really took good care of it.

Is a great story. It was on ABC World News last night as well. Some video of the car included:

I saw the story on ABC World News last night also. Great story. The buyer persisted until the owner, in his 80's, relented in order to see the car go to a good home, and boy did it!! Great story showing the son of the the original owner driving the car with his children. Now there is certainly a car that won't be flipped.
Joe P. The car, a Cutlass Supreme convertible, has rocker moldings, no W-30 stripe nor W-30 badges, no W-25 hood, no wing, no bumper cut outs.... Check it out!;
Keep hope alive......
