1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass Restomod

Description

Oldsmobile has always been about offering a premium feeling, and while the company did not survive into modern time, this classic 1971 Cutlass restomod sure feels like it did. The vintage exterior has amazing modern metallic paint, the interior is filled with the latest luxuries, and the V8 drivertrain even has all the right upgrades. So this is the Oldsmobile for those who want the best of it all, including iconic styling.

You know from the moment you lay eyes on this coupe that it's no ordinary Cutlass. There were shades of blue similar to this in Oldsmobile's color palette for 1971, but the moment the sunshine hits it, you know this is no ordinary paintjob. There was a serious investment in modern metallic elements and a superior clearcoat finish. The quality of the work complements the sheetmetal excellence as it highlights iconic design elements like the flared fenders, rounded rear, and long pillarless hardtop with the fastback silhouette. And with a shine like this, only the best brightwork will do. On the bumpers, the mirror-like front one gives this coupe the classic American appearance, and few companies were better at integrating the chrome rear bumper into the sheetmetal design than Olds. Complementing the shine of those are the MHT polished alloys. They have a great 20/22-inch front/rear stagger to give this Olds an aggressive stance that confirms to everyone that this is a very custom machine.

Be prepared to be amazed from the moment you open the door. This is a complete custom interior that would not look out of place in a modern Cadillac. The light tan bucket seats have modern bolstering and a leather diamond-stitched center section for the ultimate in modern comfort. And the blue piping not only matches the exterior color, but also the dash and center console that runs the full length of the car. Yes, someone put a lot of time, money, and effort into this uniform presentation. You'll even notice that when you slip behind the Grant GT three-spoke steering wheel that the premium wood grain on the wheel matches the wood on the armrests. You get every modern convenience you could want, including keyless ignition, power locks, tilt wheel, and keyless entry/alarm. Plus, the dash now features a multi-speaker premium AM/FM head unit that has a screen for everything from satellite navigation to a backup camera. But the feature we think you'll love the most is the power windows. They allow you to show off the pillarless hardtop style without ever having to leave the driver's seat. And with cold air conditioning, you can stay cool while looking cool all year long.

This is a car that you're going to want to show off every inch, and so even the engine bay is dressed to impress. The shine of the valve covers, breather, and master cylinder go nicely with the slick painted elements like the inner fenders, firewall, and radiator shroud. Oldsmobile people know that a Rocket 350 cubic-inch motor is something very special. Olds manufactured their own V8 engines during this era, and they were quite different than the Chevy version. These are beefier motors that have proven to be virtually indestructible out in the real world. Plus, upgrades like the performance intake and four-barrel carburetor add power while making a meaner rumble out of the dual exhaust. But even with all the added attitude this Olds doesn't lose its premium driving feeling. It has features like power steering and a three-speed automatic transmission. Plus, there are upgrades such as new sway bars front & rear, as well as four-wheel disc brakes. So this is a true easy any time cruiser.
