1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supremes Compared

By Dave Ashton

Oldsmobiles are not always the first choice when you think about classic muscle cars, but they could be just as good as their counterparts depending on the setup. At today’s market prices you’re also getting value for your money.

Here we have two 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supremes at different price points, one being a regular hardtop and a 442, the other a convertible, but with the same Rocket 350 V8 4bbl engine in each. As you can see both vehicles are in fantastic condition, both having had full restorations and in the convertibles case, what looks like a full detailing job.

Clearly the 442 is the rarer of the two and being a hardtop will need less long-term maintenance, but the red convertible looks simply stunning, especially for its current asking price.

If you consider how much car you’re getting for your money compared to its contemporaries, a Cutlass Supreme could be a viable solution if you are after a classic era muscle car. Just check out the two vehicles below and their direct listings. Which one would you go for?
