Tim’s 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Coupe
Every one in a while, a customer sends along pictures of their vehicle that stops us in our tracks. Seeing pictures of Tim’s two show-stopping collector cars was definitely one of those times. Tim has a 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Two-Door Coupe and a 1948 Chevrolet Stylemaster 4-door Sport Sedan that is fashioned as a North Carolina Sheriff Car. For now, we’ll profile the Cutlass and showcase the Sheriff car in the coming days.
Tim purchased this Cutlass five years ago and is just the third owner. The previous owner had spent a decade restoring the car and as you’ll see below, the results are quite spectacular. Not only does this Cutlass turn heads, with an estimated 400 horsepower, it also gets up and goes. For Tim and his wife, cruising in their Cutlass is a favorite pastime. It is smooth, comfortable and has an unbelievable exhaust note. Tim uses AMSOIL Z-Rod 10W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil in the 350 Rocket engine.
