Matador Red Cutlass Supreme with Parchment Interior, 350/260hp, 3-Speed Automatic Transmission

When discussing classic American cars from the ’60s and ’70s, enthusiasts often gravitate toward the iconic muscle cars from the Big Three automakers. However, within the mid-size and intermediate segments, there were also remarkable “tamer” versions worth celebrating. Positioned just below Cadillac in GM’s hierarchy, Oldsmobile produced impressive vehicles, with the Oldsmobile 4-4-2 showcasing notable performance. Yet, the most popular model in Oldsmobile’s lineup was undeniably the Cutlass. This beloved model offered a variety of configurations, with the Cutlass Supreme serving as the top trim level. Produced from ’66 to ’97, the Cutlass Supreme featured a unique roofline, but for the ultimate experience, the Supreme Convertible was the definitive choice.

This stunning two-owner time capsule is completely original, except for the tires, belts, and hoses. Remarkably, the original dual-stripe whitewall spare tire remains in the trunk! Initially purchased by a woman in Oklahoma, this Cutlass was cherished until 1987, when the second owner took over. It has been meticulously maintained throughout its life, evident in its beautiful original paint and interior, which exhibit just the right amount of patina. Features include factory air conditioning, bucket seats with a console, power steering, power front disc brakes, a power soft top with a boot, Rally wheels fitted with whitewall radial tires, an AM/FM radio, and a period-correct Craig cassette player discreetly mounted under the dash.

When Corvette Mike acquired this classic, he quickly grew fond of it and decided to enjoy some weekend drives. After performing maintenance, including servicing the air conditioning, he took it home and relished the experience of cruising in such a delightful vehicle. It’s easy to see why he fell in love! This Cutlass glides down the road effortlessly, boasting ample power while shifting, steering, and stopping as it should. Not every vintage piece of Detroit iron needs to have 400hp and a 4-speed transmission—some are simply designed to be exceptional top-down cruisers, just like this one!
