If you like a RARE classic. this Olds Cutlass Calais just might be the car for you.

GM did not make convertibles back in 1983. but they DID send a very few out to select coach builders to convert to a convertible. Dealers were also allowed to use the GM selected coach builders in order to sell the Cutlass convertible as an option. Select coach builders had to be used so they did not compromise the structural integrity or warranty of the car.

 Texas Ragtops was one of such select coach builders used in the process. and this Olds has the Texas Ragtops badge affixed to the door jamb. Since the conversion process was quite expensive. there were not many conversions done. which is good news for the collector car owner today because of the rarity that affects the value of these cars.

This beauty  features a custom leather interior. new convertible top. as well as boot. It comes equipped with the 3. 8 liter v6 engine and smooth shifting automatic transmission. power steering. brakes. windows. and seats. The air conditioning needs a re-charge. and the cruise control quit working but might be just a fuse. All glass is in very nice condition. the owner says the car runs. drives. and stops great. and the entire car shows no signs of rust anywhere - including the undercarriage. He also states that the mileage shown on the odometer is actual although the previous owner checked the non - actual box on the clear Ohio title.  
There is a stationary antenna in place. but a new poser antenna goes with the sale. There is also a built in CD/DVD unit in the dash. so you can listen to your favorite tunes or let the kids watch a movie while you drive. The paint is original and has lost it's shine. but it really appears that with a little buffing effort the shine might come back. The paint is certainly presentable as it is but would look nicer if polished. While not cheap. you may be surprised at the amount of reserve for this rare opportunity to own a very RARE convertible.
