Mid-Life Crisis Purchase!

New to the Oldsmobile family. Always loved but never owned until now. She's in long-term storage for the winter, but cannot wait to have her back home in the spring.

'71 Cutlass

That's a nice looking vehicle! Also, if anyone asks, it's not a mid-life crisis, it's a reward for paying your dues! I got a hammer for my mid-life crisis = \

Welcome to the site! Beautiful car! Ok, no one else has asked, so I will. The caption on the picture of your car says "71 Cutlass". I noticed the W30 badging, is your car restored to be a "442 W30" tribute? Just curious???

Waiting to hear from the OP on whether this is a true W-30 or a tribute car.

Another W-30 along with the other 10,000 W-30’s, it’s getting rare not to see W-30’s

With the wing I'm guessing tribute

Sweet looking ride, welcome.

There doesn't seem to be 442 badges on the fenders (the photo almost looks blurred in that area above the W30 badge......can't imagine why they'd be missing or blurred). Inquiring minds want to know!
