I'm In ! 69 Cutlass S Convertible Dressed as a 442 +-

Hi Ya'll !
New to Me Today -
It took me nearly 2 years to find this one ! Was Worth the Wait
Definitely a driver - not a show winner car or as they say a "It's a 10 Footer" (for now +-)
So someone transformed this about 20 years ago ...
And today it's got the aging blues - made for a good deal ! Lower body paint has bubbles
Seems the Floor & Trunk Pans are original and never replaced - not even rusted (so my guess this was not an original Northern car (?)
Very Solid Frame throughout
Fenders, Rockers, & Quarters have had metal and bondo work (and now bubbles)
some of the fender / door / hood gaps are a bit off
Hood has 2 low spots +-

VIN - 336679Mxxxxxx
No Sticker on the Oil Fill - Tube Stamp -0244658
Now It has a 70 Olds 455 -
Block Stamp - 30M209943
Block Casting # - 396021F
Heads # - E - 403686
4 Speed Muncie - I was told it was a M20 but not confirmed yet, fresh feeling clutch & shifts nice (3525660 - 3088336 -3857584 - P9R10)
12 Bolt open rear end
Dash & Gauges are like new - nothing ever cut up, gauges are clear (maybe new), Mileage is 102,750 and seems believable
Cloth top with boot & rugs like new
Cloth covered bucket seats are very good
All interiors panels are good too
Mags & Tires look new as well P245-60R-14
Motor runs like day 1 - not even a tick at all rpms, true dual exhaust
PS, PDB up front
Newer steering box has issues - turns more to the left than compared to the right (for now)
And the lights ,wipers, heater, 4 way flashers, electric top .. all work
glass is very good as well
1 sun visor has the stitching opening up
LOL - my comments may be in error +-

Nice score! Now the fun begins of "working out the kinks" as they say. Enjoy your ride, and don't hesitate to ask for help here on the forum. we're all on this journey together.

Happy Oldsmobiling!
