1984 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Brougham

These are the controls I will use for the power mirrors (1993 Cadillac) and the fog lights (1985 Cutlass).

Cornering lights - these were not offered originally on 1984 Cutlasses, this is from a 1977 Oldsmobile 88 or 98.

Modified the door handle to have the courtesy light feature - the one where you can have the interior lights lit by lifting the door handle. This is required because I am using the lighted key holes - without this modification, lighted keyholes are pretty useless.

Not much to add --- I have been driving the car a lot lately, back and forth to work.

I guess the 200-4R + the 3.73 diff will go in next year.

Out for winter!

In summary - love the ride with the GN suspension + steering box + Jeep steering shaft. Love the oversize calipers + big body master cylinder brake feel.

Winter: working on the turbo engine, 200-4R, and 3.73 diff for next year.

I did not work on my V6 this winter, but I'm driving the car a lot

I will be putting the transmission this summer.

And maybe even the differential.

Who knows!

Just found your thread and read every page. That's a really cool project you've got! I like that you keep it drivable so you can enjoy it as you work on it. I'm going to steal some ideas from you!

That is one cool 4 door. Mention the term gbody and the last thing most people think of is a 4 door cutlass with a v6. I like the fact you upgraded the suspension. Reminds me of an 80's getaway car prepped for a bank robbery lol.
