Hello - my father-in-law recently passed away. He left behind his 1980 Cutlass Diesel. He bought it new and took good care of it. For the last 20 years or so, he kept it in a storage garage. Is this car something we should sell or scrap? Let us know what you think - if we should sell, I'll re-post into the classified section.

We knocked on all the body panels - all seem solid. My father-in-law kept good maintenance records, we found most of them. It was last registered in the late '90s. We have the title.

Shipping order - LF9 (diesel engine), N67 (wheels), U14 (gage package), 7777 Cinnabar (paint)

Rear view - excuse the dust

Right side - solid panels - left side similar

Front grill

Diesel engine - ready for an engine swap?

Interior

Gage package from factory - odometer shows 1416 - we assume 201416 based on service records

 

Looks too good to scrap. Nice body & I love the interior. Too bad there's no A/C. I'd see if a garage can get it running for a reasonable cost. If they can't, put it up for sale. It'd be a great candidate for a 350 Oldsmobile gasoline engine swap!

 

I am interested in buying it

 

Hello - Thank you for your interest. What's your offer? Right now, it's just sitting in the storage garage and we want to be rid of it. I imagine it would need to be winched onto a flatbed or trailer. The location is in NW Indiana, if that helps.
Regards,

OK - do you mind if I try to contact you directly. I think there is a method to Private Message.

 

Hello,
any interest still?
