Looked up a Cutlass gt. Stripe,hood,trunk and int look the part. They never came in white? Would a gt have the 8.5 rear?

Ok never heard of a Cutlass gt. Interesting
There was a company in N.C. I think it was called Tops and Trends . They took about 200 Olds cutlass's and added stripe kit, hood scoop and rear spoiler and each car had a number that's it. Oldsmobile had nothing to do with this conversion. It didn't come with 8.5 rear plus I have seen a few in black in person but not white. Did they make one in white not sure but like others have said the price isn't bad.

Buy that as if it's an ordinary Cutlass.

Another point would be the speedo, I'm believing '87 442's like the MCSS had 120 MPH units.

Might also be one of those 'LV2' editions I believe? Just like the GT's but both those were 1988 models...guy might be mistaken calling it an 87 or funny biz with the vin..

Another thing to look for in your future search, if you hold out for a 442, is the bumpers would be painted Argent/Silver not chromed
