Newbie from Ontario,Canada

Hi Guys


I can tell you it is not classic car weather here, Snow & more Snow.
I own a 1972 Cutlass Supreme 455/ auto, A/C. tilt wheel, AMFM
I purchased the cutlass in April this year.
This car spent 40 plus years in SC, A Body off restoration by Supercar Specialties, (scott tieman) in 1997,

Newbie from Clarkston, Oakland County, Michigan

My very first car was '72 Olds Cutlass Supreme when I bought it in 1975. My newest acquisition is a '72 Olds Cutlass Supreme (45,000 original miles, and original paint), I bought in 1990. Still has 45,000 on it, and still has original paint. Would love to post a pic if I can figure out how to scan the image from a photograph. Any tips?

thanks guys for the compliments on the cutlass.


engine bay is very nicely detailed out, Has the W25 hood with the functional ram air system added a few years ago,,


honestly the undercarriage is every bit as nice as the exterior.


Supercar Specialties did an amazing job of the undercarriage,

Welcome. Very nice! Soft yellows always look the best on a Cutlass....and golds. The Skylark don't look half bad either.

Welcome aboard! Gee from the pics I'd swear it was cruisin weather. Biggest mistake ever made by Olds IMO was not making the 455 standard on all the holiday coupes/post coupes. But then if they did that, EVERYONE would have a 455 wouldn't they, and the 350 would be the sought after one...not.
