If you're kind of looking for a Chevelle or GTO but not finding any within your budget, perhaps you should start thinking differently. Take this 1965 Oldsmobile Cutlass, for example. The same tidy A-body footprint, a uniquely aggressive Oldsmobile look, and a fantastic combination of power and luxury that the junior brands can't quite match. All for a price that is half of what people will predict you paid.
The light metallic blue paint gives this big Olds a mature feeling that is also fresh thanks to the luster provided by a modern clearcoat. The chrome and stainless are quite nice and really pop against the blue paint. But there's also a sinister side. Iconic Cragar SS wheels, tinted windows, and the square-jaw toughness of the design allow this classic coupe to fit in with the muscle car crowd. The wide grille with quad headlights was a distinctive Oldsmobile look for more than a decade, and it looks right without trying too hard. Stacked taillights were used throughout the lineup, so there's a full-sized connection to the brand even from behind.
Open the door, and you'll instantly remember what premium looked like in the 60s. There was a lot of investment inside to take it from a standard blue bench to the cool white bucket seat interior you get today. The capering, door panels, and headliner are all part of this refresh that helps this one truly feel like a cool classic. The dashboard is one of those great exercises in driver dominance. The big chrome panel houses everything including the extra wide speedometer, heater/defrost controls, and the upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo that has an auxiliary input so this classic can play the most modern tunes. A wood steering wheel was added for a touch of class, and you can keep an eye on everything going on under the hood thanks to a set of auxiliary gauges.
The engine bay houses an interesting upgrade to a 350 cubic-inch V8 out of a 70s Olds, and this Rocket 350 motor is something very special. Oldsmobile manufactured their own V8 engines during this era, and they were quite different than the Chevy version. These golden blocks are beefy motors that have proven to be virtually indestructible out in the real world. This one goes one step further with the addition of an aluminum radiator to keep it cool under pressure. It looks great in the engine bay (especially with the shiny air cleaner and alternator) and has a nice rumble from the dual exhaust. But even with all the added attitude, this Olds doesn't lose its premium driving feeling. With features like power steering and two-speed automatic transmission, there's an easy drive behind the aggressive appearance.
A great Olds coupe is the perfect way to get that muscle car attitude without sacrificing your wallet. The secret of this Cutlass coupe won't last long, so call today!
