Well, I picked up an 82 Cutlass today. Not sure what the plans hold for this one, the outer body is pretty rough. Floors/trunk and frame seem solid and the doors close very nice, but its a basic car. Motor hasnt run in a few years, but I should have it going this week. Its got a new full dual exhaust with cats, lots of new and good parts. Any suggestions??

Gasoline and a match... :rolf j/k

Actually, clean it up, keep the stainless, landau and the interior stock and throw an LC2 in it! :thumbsup

Make sure you tighten the lug buts down on those rims often. Trust me ;) Theres a good story that goes along with me knowing to check them often :D

Jack it up a few and put some 26"s on it with about 6 TV's, lambo doors and candy paint. :D

Make a driver out of it...and put on a 87-88 front clip.

I wanted to see the first one who picked that out! You win...a discounted console!:thumbsup

My thinking is to pull the motor and trans and sell the rest. Still undecided as of yet though...

that's a nice looking cutlass just needs some love. i just picked up an 85 cutlass supreme from some hillbilly guy who swapped in a chevy 350 out of a caprice. it runs fine just has a little rust on the rockers and needs a better tranny. i got a straight trade for an 86 celica i got off this forum for 180 bucks. not too bad if you ask me.
