1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass / 442 Convertible Restomod For Sale

455 V8 Sniper EFI Overdrive A/C

This 1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass / 442 Convertible is a thoughtfully upgraded custom Restomod built with an emphasis on drivability, comfort, and classic Oldsmobile performance.

Under the hood is a 455ci V8 equipped with Holley Sniper II electronic fuel injection and backed by a CPT 200-4R overdrive automatic transmission from California Performance Transmission by Art Carr. This combination provides plenty of big-block character while adding the convenience of fuel injection and overdrive for more comfortable cruising.

Cooling is handled by a custom aluminum radiator with electric fans, and Vintage A/C provides cold air for warm-weather driving. Power steering and four-wheel power disc brakes with a Wilwood master cylinder further improve everyday usability.

The suspension has also received substantial upgrades, including springs, shocks, Global West tubular control arms, bushings, and related components. Together, these improvements help give the car more modern and confident road manners while retaining its classic muscle-car character.

Inside, youll find Dakota VHX gauges along with power windows and a Custom Autosound stereo featuring Bluetooth and satellite capability, kick-panel speakers, an amplifier, and additional audio components.

During the build, the car received replacement sheet metal along with new seat covers, door felts, mats, and other components. The convertible top and pump system were replaced, and the chrome was renewed throughout. Additional details include billet hood hinges and Holley RetroBright headlights.
