verry nice cutlass. i only wish my 83 supreme was half as nice as yours. id kill for a floor shift car. the only way it could be any better in my opinion is if it had the manual 4spd transmission. then it would truely be a perfect car. i am going to convert mine to a floor shift car with a B&M 3spd ratchet soon.

Very cool! I always like hearing about those rare gems found in countries where they are not normally seen. Can't wait to see it up and running!

Hi guys,

Some good news and pics of the cutlass are coming tomorrow but now, i need your experience to solve my problem.
I've installed a pair of new front shocks (Bilstein B4),all my ball joint and bushings are new (energy suspension) and....i've cut my springs, 1 spindle (no comments lol) but now, the car seems to be more higher than factory height.....
WTF ?? normal or not ?

in the car, i've only installed the engine with the transmission and my front end !!

Let see some pics
