Description
I love Cars especially when they are All Original, Intact and have the documents that prove it! Everything about this car is original (that includes its one and only owner) this is a 1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. It was special ordered by Harry and his son Ron after Ron returned home from the Vietnam War it was Ron's dream car. Just getting out of the service his father helped him purchase the car. Forty-seven years later Ron still has his dream car and now in his seventies he shares it at car shows. It has about 50,000 miles on it now and still looks like new, it has never been repainted or restored in any way. Ron attributes the paint to all the Simonizing his father did while Ron spent a great deal of time traveling for work. Even though this car spent most of its life in Indiana it has never been out in ice and snow, it was kept warm in a garage til spring. There is a lot more to this story but I'll save that for an article.
