Hello from Nova Scotia

Hello,

Just wanted to say hello to all the other Oldsmobile owners out there, here is my 1972 Cutlass S, it was brought up from Connecticut to Nova Scotia six years ago, it's original right down down to the paint, even the ball joints are original, it had 85000 miles when I bought it and now it's at 88000, I'm on the hunt for NOS and original options, I have added a NOS hood light, NOS clock ( still in the box ) I added the trunk light, complete courtesy light kit, changed the brake pedal pad with a new NOS.

Thats it for now take care.

Jamie

Welcome to our site! Nice Olds!!! Maybe you've seen Wolfman 98 and his big ole yellow land yacht? He lives in Nova Scotia. He hasn't been on here for a while, though.

Adding factory options is not only fun tracking down the parts, but makes for a much more enjoyable car and most of all making it "yours", as if you were ordering it when it was new. I added the following to my SX during its resto:

Tilt wheel
Sport Wheel
442 suspension
Super Stock 111 wheels
Power Windows, door locks, trunk release, bucket seat.
AM-FM radio
8 track player
Rallye Pack guages
Bumper Guards
Dual Gate shifter
3:08 Anti spin rear end
442 Dual snorkel air cleaner


I'm in the process of doing a resto on my 442 and plan on adding:

Power windows, tilt wheel, sport wheel, Super stock 111 wheels, AM/FM radio, 8 track player, power trunk release, anti-spin rear end, full tinted glass and rallye pack. I have just installed all the wiring and lights for the courtesy light package. It's the time to do all this as the car is entirely stripped and the body is about to come off the frame.

What options do you have and what woud you like to add?

I have added:

- under hood light
- trunk light
- courtesy lights
- glove box light
- clock

I want:

- tilt column
- am/fm
- anti spin rear end
- rear sway bar
- sport steering wheel
- hood lock
- sport mirrors
- power trunk

That's enough for now to keep me busy looking
