1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Convertible at No Reserve

This 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme convertible was purchased by a friend of the seller’s spouse in the mid-1970s, and it remained with that owner until their passing, after which it was purchased by the seller in 2023. The body wears weathered and worn Flame Orange paint and features a power-operated white soft top that was recovered over two decades ago. Inside, the front bucket seats have sheepskin-style covers over worn white vinyl upholstery, and a center console is accompanied by an eight-track stereo and an inoperative air conditioning system. Power is provided by a 350ci V8 that is topped with a four-barrel carburetor and linked to a three-speed automatic transmission and a 10-bolt rear end. Additional details include a dual exhaust system, power steering, 15″ Super Stock III wheels, and power-assisted front disc brakes. This Cutlass Supreme convertible is now offered with recent service records and a Colorado title in the seller’s name.

The car is finished in Flame Orange with a power-operated white soft top that was recovered in 2002, according to the seller, who notes chipped, crazed, and cracked paint around the body. Details include a white top boot, chrome bumpers, body color side mirrors, rocker and wheel-arch moldings. The seller notes the windshield seal and door weatherstripping was replaced. Corrosion is visible in the trunk lid and lower quarter panels.

The 15″ Super Stock III wheels are mounted with 215/70 BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires. The car is equipped with power steering, and stopping power is provided by power-assisted front disc and rear drum brakes. The seller notes the brake booster and master cylinder were replaced in 2026 along with the rear brake shoes and hardware.

The front bucket seats and rear bench are upholstered in white vinyl, and the front seats have sheepskin-style covers over the torn and weathered upholstery. Details include a center console, an eight-track stereo, and black lap belts. The seller notes the air conditioning does not blow cold air, and the radio audio is not clear.

The two-spoke steering wheel frames a 120-mph speedometer and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 20k miles and has rolled over, according to the seller, who notes approximately 300 miles have been added under current ownership.

The car is powered by a 350ci Rocket V8 topped with a rebuilt Quadrajet four-barrel carburetor. The alternator was replaced in July 2026, and the fuel tank, pump, and filter were replaced in September 2026.

Power is routed to the rear wheels through a three-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission. The 10-bolt rear end was overhauled in 2026 with replacement bearings and seals. The car has a dual exhaust system.
