Nice car ! Just have a question for you about your wheel/suspesion set up.... I am currently working on a 71 myself and have some 18's for the wheel set up all around. Just am curious if you lowered yours because your rear tires fit in really nice. Also was wondering how big a tire you have in the rear with that set up andhow it is for room ?

@bizkitzone3 I can't remember the size tires on the back, but they are 18's. I can find out for ya from my buddy Ronnie who owns the car, he and I built it. We installed an Eibach suspension lowering kit which is a total of 2 inches in the back and it has a ton of room. I was able to put a 22X10 under the back with a low pro tire (just to see what it looked like) and it fit tight.

70-72 were minor changes in looks but I am partial to the 71 cause I owned one in the 70's. Just an all around beautiful Olds. What I found to make these cars above anything in their class is it also has the ride and feel of a Luxury car. You have an extremely amazing car. Would love to see it at dusk. I think that time of day cars look their best. I am 50 so thinking about putting away the motorcycle and replace it with a 71cutlass-The "S" -442- don't matter as long as it has the rocket-4bbl
