My new Olds project 1970 Cutlass S

[olds307 and 403]

I like the ivory interior. Congrats!

If his is the same as mine, it is pearl, can't tell on the orginal but there is an iridescent colour to it on my PUI cover.

Is the S different than other cutlasses? The rear quarters look different than I remember. Nice looking car. I had a 69 GTO circa 2002. Same chassis I believe. Nice enough car, just didn't speak to me like the Gbodys do.

Yes, there is also the Supreme/Convertible body style, different back end. There is a 70 Convertible locally, good price but needs work. No comment on being less desirable than a G body.

Didn't say less desirable. Didn't speak to me is all.

The "S" is the sport model. They all are pretty much identical but have different trim packages. They range from base packages to of course 442s, w30s, hursts, etc.

Cool, that is nearly identical on the interior as mine. Nice blue but a vinyl top, not a fan. Mine had a 260 installed and the original 350 was long gone. Here are my interior pics, I went with the PUI front seat covers, there catalog is confusing, right cover but no new head rest covers or the spots cut out so I left them out. Also my interior was full of mice, had to restuff the pass side seat and my car is now Tremclad Green, I will take a pic when I can of the new exterior colour. I currently have a 9 to 1 Olds 350 that is decent and did a RPM intake along with 1.72 roller rockers over winter but will work on the 403 stroker this year for it, just need a girdle and machine work. I did have a 2004R in it but my daughter ran it low on fluid, so the stock TH350 went in, it will
get a TH400 when the stroker is done.

Yes, our interiors are identical. I decided not to save my interior and just go black. Fits the 60s and 70s cars well imo. I just picked up some procar seats from a gbody forum member over the weekend and purchased some oem black door panels in nice shape so now I can start improving the interior.

I think youre now my new favorite forum member but I kind of also hate you now.... one of these is my dream car. Ive had a lot of cars but everytime I go to get one of these it slips through my fingers.

Yes, this was my first time being able to get one. I got a great deal on it and was the first potential buyer to check it out. One of those, you better get there first deals. Keep you eyes open, the deals will be out there. This project has me buying parts already so now have to get rid of other g body projects and parts.

Glad to see another Olds getting fixed up, no matter what year! That will always get my seal of approval.
