Welcome to the site! There's lots of members here with spare parts. I'd encourage you to create a parts wanted thread and include your city/state/country with it. Items as large as an engine and seats can be expensive to ship very far. John

Welcome to CO! Just let us know the details of your project and location and lots of guys here can help out. The 72 Cutlass is so popular, one can almost build a whole one from repro parts, providing you have a frame and roof...

Welcome- My '72 Supreme was pretty much a mess when I got it a few years ago. It was complete, but with a lot of incorrect parts. Now it has been painted, new vinyl top, restored SSII's with new BFG's(to go on later this week) as well as a restored grille and new interior from Legendary which I hope to get in by the end of the month. It does have an Olds 350 motor, but a '73. Runs okay, but I will still be looking for a local '71 or '72 motor. Ebay has a ton of parts, used & new. It can add up fast. I just laid down $1,500 for pretty much a full front end rebuild. The more I put into the car, the more I'm inclined to keep it. Welcome again, I've learned a lot on this site. Chumley

mine is far from complete i ran the vin and i figured out it was made in Texas had a 350 with 2bbl but i am not particularly worried about getting it exact but an olds motor in an olds car would be nice lol i don't know why someone put a pontiac 400 in it i found a 455
for $350.00 and can get the seats and most of the interior from summit racing the main things i need is the center console and gauges everything else i have found online i am thinking about getting a digital gauge cluster from Dakota and as far as the console i am clueless

A factory style gauge package is available repro for about 500 bucks if you wish to go factory style. If not, there are many aftermarket solutions ou tthere.

You will love the 455 - except its thirst........

The parts place sells them - http://www.thepartsplaceinc.com/ocat...&YearList=1972
Search rally pack and you will find em. They may need the insides painted white to make them light up better at night, but other than that, I am okay with them.
See my rally pack stuff link below for more info on installation.
