Old guy new to me 73
Hey all,
Got a 73 Cutlass awhile ago and wanted to share a pic. 350/350 with a 3.08 rear, buckets and air. New Mexico car so fairly clean. I'm sure that I'll be asking lots of questions.

Curious
Was that on Craigslist in TX? If it is the same car we discussed it over on the 73-77 site.

Hey Dave,
Yes, same car. Our kids live in TX and we were looking for 1 for a while. My wife and I had a 75 for a few years in the late 70's. Sellers father bought the car new in Albuquerque, NM. After dad died, son didn't want to keep the car. 69900 miles are actual. 2 small spots of rust and 1 seat needs the inserts replaced. The car is dirty inside and will require lots of cleaning since dad was a heavy smoker. It does not smell, just nicotine stains on the white trim. Drives like a dream. Wheel eyebrow trim is paint, not vinyl. The car is how it was purchased including the argent color wheels. Everything including the 8-track works. New tires and all maint done with R-134 A/C upgrade for $9K. Will need little things done but we wanted a nice cruiser that will run on cheap gas and be reliable.
