1977 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser


As a follow up to the 1992 GM Ultralite we looked at the other day, look at what GM was building 15 years prior. The sellers description, “made at a time when General Motors Oldsmobile Division was building great American classics with much pride and craftsmanship," is a unique interpretation of 1970's smog era vehicles, which generally offered both less power and real world fuel economy than their predecessors in exchange for reduced smog emissions. However, this is one fine specimen, as well it should be for the seller's $12k asking price:


55,523 certified one owner miles. This was made at a time when General Motors Oldsmobile Division was building great American classics with much pride and craftsmanship. It was lovingly maintained mechanically and cosmetically by its only owner. There is not a spot of rust anywhere. It is as if it was washed and dried every time it was driven. This is truly a one of a kind. It is finished in a flawless copper metallic with an impeccable champagne beige interior. It is fitted with a 5.7 liter 350 V-8 engine with automatic transmission. It is fitted with every refinement available the time. The air conditioning blows cold, it has power steering and brakes and factory luggage rack. It does not have a third row seat.
