Oldsmobile Cutlass 455 V8 1967
General description :
Featuring an upsized 455/Turbo 400 drivetrain, intense Spanish Red on Black aesthetics and acute restoration, this 442 has to be one of the coolest A-Bodies on the planet! And if you're looking for a solid, road-ready classic that's sure to turn heads, it's your round-trip rocket ride to the moon!
With a striking combination of modernist appeal and open road prowess, it's virtually impossible to picture this classy Olds in anything other than a happy, sunny landscape. Not long ago the car benefitted from a focused, body-on restoration, during which its solid sheetmetal was layered in vivid Spanish Red 2-stage. Power-operated canvas was unfolded over mirrored chrome, freshened stainless and a full suite of retro 442 trim. And today, this sweet Olds is a razor-sharp muscle car that intimidates like a cruise missile and shines like the family's best silver.
Hoist the car's long hood and you'll find 455 cubic inches of red hot Rocket big block that, under a flash of chrome, complements spry HEI ignition with a reliable Edelbrock carburetor and a lightweight Edelbrock intake. That cast iron mill fronts a proven Turbo-Hydramatic 400 3-speed, which sends power to a stout 10-bolt axle that's equipped with a posi-traction differential and friendly, 3.08 gears. That driveline hangs in a requisite heavy-duty suspension, which, from the factory, includes better shocks, thicker coil springs, reinforced control arms and a mandatory rear sway bar. Power-assisted discs and drums provide braking, while turns come courtesy of factory power steering. The buff big block barks through fresh turbo mufflers and polished stainless tips. And chromed Ridler wheels spin 225/40ZR18 Ohtsus in front of 275/35ZR20 Lexanis.
Inside this impressive Olds, you'll find a correct Black interior that's both comfortable and appealing. At the center of the car, stainless-trimmed buckets ride fresh black carpet. A warp-free dash hangs stylish factory telemetry beside modern air conditioning and a modern Pioneer CD player that bumps rich Audiopipe kick speakers. At the base of that dash, an optional console frames a stylish, resin-topped shifter. And the driver spins a thick wood wheel around polished spokes and a tasteful Oldsmobile horn button.
Tired of the same old Chevelles and GTOs you can find anywhere, anytime? Then call your friends at RK Motors and take a close look at this head-turning 442!

About Oldsmobile
Ah, Oldsmobile, the very name conjures up images of classic American automobiles and the open road. Let's embark on a leisurely journey through the annals of automotive history with this venerable brand.Our story begins in 1897 when a man named Ransom Eli Olds founded the Olds Motor Vehicle Company. He wasn't the first to build cars, but he was a pioneer in mass production techniques. In 1901, Oldsmobile introduced the "Curved Dash" Olds, widely considered one of the first mass-produced automobiles in the United States. It was simple, reliable, and affordable, making it accessible to the masses.
Fast forward a few decades to the 1930s, and we encounter one of Oldsmobile's most iconic creations, the Oldsmobile Rocket 88. This was a car that not only looked cool with its sleek design but also packed a punch under the hood. The Rocket 88 featured a powerful V8 engine, earning it the nickname "the first muscle car." It was a true American classic, a car that epitomized the spirit of the open road and the freedom of post-war America.
As we approach the 1950s, Oldsmobile continued to innovate. The Oldsmobile Fiesta, introduced in 1953, was notable for being one of the first cars to feature a fully wraparound windshield, a design feature that would become a hallmark of the era. It also showcased the brand's commitment to luxury and style.
But perhaps the zenith of Oldsmobile's excellence came in the 1960s with the Oldsmobile 4-4-2, a car that was both sporty and practical. The 4-4-2 stood for 4-barrel carburetor, 4-speed manual transmission, and dual exhausts. It was a muscle car for those who wanted power without sacrificing comfort. It was the embodiment of the American muscle car era.
Then there was the Oldsmobile Cutlass, a car that became an American institution. It was a family sedan, a sports car, and a luxury car all rolled into one. The Cutlass was reliable, comfortable, and versatile, making it one of the best-selling cars in American automotive history.
Sadly, as the years went by, Oldsmobile faced challenges, and the brand that had once been a symbol of American automotive innovation and excellence ceased production in 2004. It marked the end of an era.
But the legacy of Oldsmobile lives on in the hearts of car enthusiasts, collectors, and anyone who appreciates the classic American automobile. It's a brand that gave us some of the most iconic cars in automotive history, a brand that embodied the American dream of freedom, mobility, and style.
So here's to Oldsmobile, a name that will forever be associated with the golden age of American automobiles and the enduring spirit of adventure on the open road.
