there's hardly anything cutlass related on cl as of right now, but i've got tons for my truck dwn there..i got alot of cutlass parts dwn there as well, but it was around 3 yrs ago, gbody cutlass in our areas are just few n far between anymore...most around IN and KY have been used for dirt track cars or scraped out. you need a deck lid? have u tried p.a.p? i was there a couple weeks ago and pretty sure there was one. I'm from around Bedford,In...only about 70 miles from ya.

i'm needing a side marker light lens for 81-86 cutlass that isnt faded out for front left side, if u see one cheap

also...the oil sending unit and temp switch if u still got the 307 olds laying around...need the ones for the rallye gauges

Yeah I have seen a few for cheap but only for track uses or Demolition, Sucks to see them getting abused.
I tried Pull a part there was one same color same year and everything but it was wrecked only in the rear so everything including the trunk were non unusable. But everything else on the car was immaculate.

I think I might have a side marker, I will have to check the condition but I know I have one.
If its good I could give it to yah, but I don't promise it will be nice and if its not I will just tell yah its not in good condition.

I don't have the original engine, It was a 3.8 anyways not even a 307.

Yep, I seen the car @ p.a.p that you're referring to(i got a wheel well trim piece off of it), any deck lid off a 81-87 cutlass will fit right on if you're not worried about color.

and oh ok....ya, if u got a good front left side marker lens, I'd like that.

it does suck that there's fewer and fewer everyday, but i guess it just makes 'em more valuable to people wanting one each n everyday.

Yeah its nice as could be, But I am not worried about color that much but I would love something close.
Just kind of weird on the color difference, I don't have money to paint it or anything so i would like to just keep it similar without a eye sore.

Yeah I will check though.

It is becoming more of a value to have these cars.
But Hopefully people see it before they ruin anymore of these beautiful cars.

oh ok, i see. might be fairly hard to find that color. it sucks everyones scrapping these cars, i've had mine 5 yrs and theres been fewer and fewer each yr. yep, let me know on the left front side marker lens, how goood it is

Oh yeah going to be hard, But I was thinking anyways to just primer it for right now until tax time and get it painted.
That would be easy.
But Yeah I will go out now and check, I will try to get a picture for you as well.
 
if you're going to prime it and leave it, don't. Primer is porous and it won't protect the metal. Paint with sealer or if you do prime it just cover it with some paint

I got these pictures, Its not bad at all. Besides the back has a crack and its the kind you cant put a light into, Its the reflecter kind and I am sure you want to light.

But here they are any ways.

Okay now I won't I guess I will just wait till tax time which is next month or two i will keep the paint like it is then get it painted back factory but it will look nicer because its new and not faded and cracked.
