I think the striker bolts were painted at the factory. Nothing to see there.

Make a PPI of this “survivor” and bring a coating thickness meter.

The hood insulation is after market but the install was well done.

Even the underhood pad is incredible. I’m surprised to see a Harrison type compressor instead of the Fridgidaire unit. The 305 and Hydramatic 350 combo will last forever given proper maintenance. Its a keeper. 19 g’s a bit high but at 15 it should find a nice home

He bought it new, and babied it for 20 years+. It was immaculate. A film company convinced him to rent it to them for a period show. It was supposed to be used only for close-ups, and not driven. There was another (crappy) duplicate car that was to be used for the “action” shots. The 2nd car was the wrong colour, and was quickly sprayed blue to match. The action scene was at night, things got rushed, and a picture car wrangler assumed the shinier(freshly painted crappy) car was the good one, and my buddy’s dads car got used for the stunts. It was trashed. He was heart-broken. BTW, this happens more than you think, so don’t be so quick to rent your ride for film/TV (unless you are paid to drive it as an extra).

I just looked at the ad to see all the pictures. This has to be the original mileage. Even the hood insulation is completely intact. Its incredible to find a Cutlass like this so well preserved. I hope it stays preserved and yet driven and enjoyed too.
