Just got my '70 Cutlass Supreme Convertible project car delivered today.

Meet the actual seller for the first time today (been dealing with a 3rd party) when I traded a check for the title. Found out he has owned it since 1983 but just never was able to get around to restoring the car and now he's too old. It's been sitting in a shed for at least the last 15 years.

I was surprised when he showed me the build sheet he had for the car. Although it is not in really good shape, most of the items are readable.

He also said the engine is original but I will confirm this once I take a look at the numbers on the block.

I haven't had a chance yet to research out to read these build sheets yet.

Anyone an expert at reading build sheets that can tell me what I have?

My expectations are that it is just a plain vanilla Supreme Convertible.

thanks, Pat

Well, all the options are right there on the build sheet. Interestingly, the base engine in the 1970 Supreme was the L74 350 4bbl motor. The L65 2bbl motor was an available option, but had to be ordered. 2.56 was the standard rear axle ratio with the TH350.
