1982 Oldsmobile Cutlass supreme review from North America
"Its old, its rumbly and its green. no complaints here!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
OK, this should be fun:
Total loss of AC, not even a hint.
The radio only turns one way.
A two barrel?
T200R4 transmission with the lockdown converter.
The windshield squeaks.
Its rusting. ah well, 20 years in NY winters will do that to ya.
General comments?
The good points.
The car is state green and does not get ticketed easily.
The 307 is a torque engine. in other words, twin strips.
The posi still works well.
Its cost me less in five years on parts then it has for the car. always a plus.
