Hello to all my fellow Oldsmobile lovers! When I signed up for this site, I got so anxious to find things, I overlooked introducing myself. my name is David and I am from Mississippi. I am the original owner of a 1972 Cutlass Supreme 442 Convertible. I has been sitting up for about 7 years, but I have decided to get it back in reasonable show condition so I can enjoy it until that day I pass it on to my sons. I have already chatted with a few of you about parts, and I look forward to talking to a lot of you in the future. This seems to be a great outlet for information and hard to find parts. I have very few spare parts, but what I have, I will post in case anybody has a need for them. Until then, thanks for letting me be a part of your world.

I like how the stripes are factory correct for a 4-4-2,

everyone usually adds w-30 stripes

Dent,

Yes, I haven't really changed anything. The front seats were reupholstered back in the 80's with an aftermarket cover. I will re-do those soon.

Nice car. I had a 72 Vista Cruiser that color and my son has a Cutlass Supreme convertible that color. It was a popular color back in 72, but you don't see many of them any more.

Welcome to the site David. Your '72 looks sharp (always loved the '72 442 grilles!). Best of luck with it!
