Hi all,

Names Bryan I don't currently own a 73-77 cutlass but am in the market for one. In the past I have 2 cutlass my first car ever was an 82 4dr that I got when I was 15 and an 87 2dr that I got when I was 20. I currently own an 06 Chrysler 300C and a 91 caprice that I have turned into a lowrider but it's time for me to let the caprice go and start a new project. Originally I wasn't looking for a cutlass it was an el camino a friend of mine was looking for a 70-72 cutlass and asked me if I could help him in his search. As I began looking on Craigslist for him I started looking at all of the cutlasses in the 70 and came across the 76-77 salon and decided that's the one for me. I've narrowed my search down to two in my area that I've found there both 77's first one is white with a red brougham top with t-tops with red cloth bucket seats and a 350 for 4,500 the second needs a paint job has a brougham top with leather seats and a 455 for 2,500

 

Welcome, good luck with your quest!

 

Any suggestions on what would be a better buy I would prefer having t-tops but would also like to have a 455 but I don't think I would be that lucky to find one with both

 

You can swap the 350 for a 455 but you can't convert to t-tops,so in my opinion one with t-tops would be the better choice for you!

 

And since you are from chicago there are some good sources for parts in the area.
