Here's the 1993 Cutlass Supreme convertible 3.1 that I bought from Invasion1 (Dave). He imported it from Florida a few years ago. It has just over 60K miles, but I don't know the exact mileage because the speedo has been changed by Dave to a metric one.

It's in awesome shape mechanically, and there's no rust. It just needs some bodywork (dent removal) and some other cosmetic attention to be a sweet cruiser.

It purchased with brand new calipers, rotors, pads, and KYB struts on all 4 corners. It also has a recent radiator, alternator and PS pump. It has less than 1000mi on a rebuilt transmission.

It has a couple tiny holes in the top which is otherwise in good shape. I'm going to have it repaired at an upholstery shop locally.

I'm going to tinker with it this winter and get it ready for summer cruising.

Anyways heres the pics....don't worry the whitewalls will be history shortly.













Interior ( needs new seats, gonna do a rear bucket swap hopefully)







Good ol reliable 3.1



New brakes all around





The underbody is fairly clean too







Sorry the car is dirty, I haven't had a chance to wash it since Dave delivered it from Sudbury.

What do ya think?

glad your happy with it Matt

I tried my best to describe it and what its "needs" were, selling online with pics and such can be tricky and im glad it went so smoothly.

Just sorry about having to bail on ya saturday nite, FWIW i made it to the service call and went underground for 5 mins and fixed the issue with the piece of communications equiptment, but i had to wait 5 hours for a lift back to surface.

nothing like getting overtime and having a good sleep waiting for the Cage to pick you up.

It was real nice to get to meet ya. Next time you come down (autoshow or whatever) we'll have to meet up and have a few beers.

I think you did a really good job describing the car. I'm happy with it.

Getting overtime while sleeping FTW!

Very nice car until the door was opened! :puke: Burgandy and me do not mix.

Other than that I bet you got a great deal! ;)
