71 and 86 Olds
Hi, I've been a long time reader and since I just purchased a 1971 Olds Cutlass Supreme I figured it's time to introduce myself and my cars. My names Mitchell and I have a 1986 442 along with the 71 I just purchased and a few chevys. Been a die hard Olds fan ever since I restored the 86 442 a few years ago.
The 86 when I bought it.
After restoration. Complete matching numbers car
Picture of all my cars
The new 71 I just purchased
Another angle of the 71.
I had the choice between the 71 Supreme and a 68 442. I ultimately picked the 71 because I did not wish to devalue a matching numbers 442 by switching the original engine out for my 488 Stroker that I have ready to drop in. Plans for the 71 are simple compared to my other restorations since the cars body and interior are immaculate, put the in the 488 Olds Stroker, rebuilt transmission and a stronger rear. Most likely getting a W-25 hood, a spoiler, new tires (get some beefy ones on the back) and a fresh coat of paint.
