Hi all. I just bought this 72 cutlass S model this past weekend. It looks a lot better in pictures, I must say. The paint is fairly new and the upholstery was redone by the previous owner, to match the original colors. I had to adjust the distributor and engine idle screw on the carb but I haven't done much past that aside from cleaning/polishing it. It needs the AC converted from R12 and recharged, but winter is coming so that is a lower priority. I am guessing some of the seals might be getting leaky from age. I'm also looking to replace the carb air filter, transmission filter, installing a newer (and working) stereo system, and possibly converting the front drums to discs. I will certainly be by with questions later on haha.

Great car that looks great, welcome aboard.

Love the way the rear tires fill out but don't exceed the width at the high point of fenders edge. Absolutely compliments the side bulges.

Nice Cutlass. I like the background you chose of the A-10 Thunderbolt II (Warthog)! They have such a unique sound; used to listen to them taking off from Patrick AFB in Florida when the Navy sent me to Port Canaveral.
