1972 oldsmobile Cutlass S survivor estate car mostly original paint must see

CAR IS BEING SOLD WITH THE SUPER STOCK 2's (RALLIES) AS SHOWN IN A FEW PICTURES>< Pauline Bodman of Elizabettown PA bought this 1972 cutlass from H S Risser Motors In may of 1972. She had specially ordered this car in covert beige and a baroque gold painted top. She did not care for the look of vinyl and chose this very seldom seen combination. It has been out of her estate for only about a year or so. It is very apparent when viewing this car that she did not drive it in inclament weather as it has held up wonderfully. The car has a 90. 00 mile 350-2 and is one of the best driving oldsmobiles I have ever had. In fact I just drove it home from PA and it averaged 17+ mpg @ 75 mph for over 725 miles. I believe this is the first time in all its life it has left the state of PA. As far as slapping the term "survivor" on a car. it is a very overused term. I would rate this car high. The paint upon my inspection is about 70% original. The hood. roof. trunklid. driver fender and passenger door look to be still 1972 issue laquer. The driver door I believe has been touched up and both rear quarters. In my experience this happens as people age and the garage opening "seems" to shrink over time! One look into the trunk. the bottom of the car and lower extremities prove this car to never have been rusty or driven in a winter. As long as I am on the subject of the trunk. I will say that this is one of if not THE best trunk insides I have ever seen. I have dealt wth and restored alot of cars and I will say that it still boggles my mind when you see such a pristine factory applied spatter job. I highlighted the red oxide primer application. the beige paint overspray. and the patterns of the spatter paint and the way it was done quickly on the line. The top portion of the felt mat is still fastened down with its red colored spray glue. The bottom has been replaced and I took great care an alot of time to get the old stuck foam rubber material off the floor which sticks with age. There is not even a dime sized speck of orange rust anywhere. The wire harness looks reproduction even and the weatherstrip still has that latex coated feel and 2 painted stripes still present not to mention the base of rear window and windshield moldings have the original clear plastic washers underneath the screws holding them on! The plating on the jack mast looks new and the condition of the whole jack assembly is mind blowing. Car was ordered with a light group package which consisted of a hood. trunk. dash and rear view mirror lamp. All of them work. Car also has power disc brakes. I have only a partial build sheet and the rest may still be in the car. I have not wanted to tear anything apaty and there really is no need to. Interior is clean. and at one time the front seat fabric gave way but only the driver portion was replaced. The passenger side has some splits and the rear seat looks never used. Car does not have any odors and never was smoked in. Dash is crack free. Fasten seat belt light works until you buckle up and key buzzer still buzzes. All other controls. wipers etc work except the radio. Paint on roof is slightly crazed and has some staining which is typical of old 40+ year laquer. It still shines and is neat to say its original. Chrome and trim is excellent. engine bay is unmolested and one can learn from the way things were done then. You can see primer where the firewall meets the cowl as they painted from the top down. brake booster has the aqua dot paint daub and part sticker residue still in place. Power steering pump still had its small yellow oval part identifier decal still on it. The car does not leak. make noise or smoke. Choke works as it idles high when cold and then can be kicked down nicely. Video of it running is the last picture shown.  These cars are getting harder and harder to find in this type of original state. It is nice to say that it still has all 5 original rims and it has never been switched over to a super stock rally wheel of any kind. Car is absolutely a turn key ready to drive anywhere car. as it just ran a 11 hour trip without a hiccup. feel confident. look at my feedback and study the 120+ photos. Nothing to hide and as a hobbyist I like to get a good feel for something before I buy. This is why I take hours to take pictures of areas I like to know more about. I encourage any inspections. Please do homework or ask questions prior to bidding. I am here to help. car is located 90 miles north of chicago and I;m a suburb of milwaukee. Jason. 414-688-060four.
