New project Cutlass...

[85GPLef41]

Hello, recently picked up a new project... 87 cutlass supreme brougham.. pretty clean for its age needs some work here are a few pics still trying to decide which route to go with.
A. keep the 307 add a czf code 200r4 better gears rebuild the suspension to f41 specs
B. have a line on a olds 350 and the above upgrades
c. do a ls variant swap with a auto trans just not as built as what my GP would be..
as for the wheels I'm not sold on them but am willing to do either some 13in daytons OR some 22in wheels but tucked in 8)
here are some pics of my new to me Cutty!!

at home in my garage

what do you guys think?

hmmmm I was not planning to convert to buckets the torn leather seats are kinda comfy... but send me pics of what you got if you don't mind and I could change plans... :lol: I do want to upgrade it somewhat, the suspension is real soft compared to my GP and the steering sucks! but it's going to be a cruiser of some sort... pm me with pics and what you have thanks!

no it still has a 3 speed in it, I do have a 87 czf code 2004r that I plan on getting rebuilt for it, with upgrades if I decide to keep the 307 or build the Olds 350 which I think is out of a mids 70's car... not sure the actual car doubt it's anything special though. Still debating what route to go with, but the ls1 swap is sounding good..

Good looking car! I'm usually not one to try peddling things, but if you're missing that piece of lower front fender trim for the passengers side, I have it. I know a lot of olds guys like to keep everything all Oldsmobile, but it's getting harder and harder to find complete engines in this day and age. I have a chevy 350 I could drop in mine, also considered doing a vortec. I really wanted to do a 68'-72' 350 or even an earlier 330, but finding one running locally has been a challenge.

Thanks, please pm with pics and a price for the trim.... I wish I could keep it it all olds the main issue is that it's gonna be harder to pass emissions with the carb... emissions standards were lowered a few years ago and it's getting harder to pass this rides!
