I worked at a local junk yard and one day an 85 cutlass came in, I told the guy who owned that yard I wasn't going to let him crush it. Now I own it, it's about 1/3 of the way through a frame off resto-mod with a 350 chev and 700r4. It had seen some action with 0ver 300k miles but imma make her great again.
Yea i came across a 85 buicke regal T type with T Tops only had 42,301 miles on it and even still had the factory bill sheet to it. It was covered with tree sap and weeds. Only surface rust. I damn near tore a hole in my pockets to give her what she wanted.
I've never had any luck with those 231ci V6 engines. Both my Regals had that and they both blew. Watching all that crap blow out the exhaust was amazing. I was absolutely shocked when it started. I said no way it was. That was a fast "will it run" video. Lol. Awesome.
I also have a Chevrolet Caprice Classic at home. It is a 305 (5.0L) V8 sedan. It's an exceptional car for us because I'm from the Czech Republic. This is Central Europe.
I remember back in the late 90's early 2000's when you could buy a cutty for a few hundred bucks. Now (in bad shape) you can't touch one for less than a couple grand.
Had an 84 cutlass supreme one of my favorite cars I owned comfortable and enough power not a lot but enough also had a 84 camaro Berlinetta at the same time also enough power and just beautiful mine had a a firebird spoiler from the factory and the z28 wheels factory beautiful version of the Berlinetta all the add on’s love the gem 80’s
Thoes were popular cars in 80s They're were everywhere like the buick regal Montel Carlos grand pix were alot those are all favorite cars in 90 my dad bought A 85 Oldsmobile cutlass beautiful condition in Brooklyn didnt still Nice dent and scratch he had 9 years hard to keep it got vandalized he junk it ill miss it We good time with it lot memories You guy lucky to find a great car Not bad shape
My son had a 1982 cutlass supreme brougham Dove Grey with navy blue vinyl top until he got hit and it was totaled and he got hurt he really loved that car
My grandma gave me a 83 Cutlass Supreme Brougham that was bought new it's been parked 20 plus years but the inside is so clean the sun killed the vinyl top and paint low miles and looks nice under the hood
Had a 84 the same exterior color but with brown interior. Those pillow type seats were comfortable.Had a 307 4 barrel with posi and Shelby aftermarket wheels. Was originally born with wire wheels. Mine had no rear defogger. Manual windows and locks but had air conditioning and cruise. Was garage kept majority of its life and bought it with 60k miles of my uncles ex father in law. Miss that car. Should've kept it. Guy I sold it to wrecked it and put junkyard parts on it.
I had both a 84 and a 85 Oldsmobile Cutlass supreme brougham coupe and I probably paid more for each than what you scored this 82 for sir and one was a very solid car and one had three dents and one golf ball size hole in the front of the quarter panel right behind the Dr door, and I had to fix the roof because it was a vinyl top car that was the 84 factory beautiful buttercream yellow paint and burgundy interior
If you have an extra Chevy, Pontiac, Oldsmobile,Buick driveline (motor, transmission,and all the mounting hardware and whatever else,it looks good enough to keep on the road). Peace and Blessings once again 🙏💯👍
I love these cars.. had one with a 260 v8 and I put 300k miles on it before I swapped with a chevy 350 performance engine.. would still have it but the frame rails rotted which were common for those cars.
@hondarider61601 I actually have a problem lol I got a few but redoing my 82 on a 79 frame lifted 9inches on 35's but having issues mating up my motor to the sm465 but when I get time from work I'll be back at it.
Really wish GM would have given the G-Bodies a better engine option, yeah the 305/307 were decent but a factory 350 would have made these a blast to drive, I had a 76 L48 from a wrecked Vette in my old 86 Cutlass and that car was fun, night and day different even though the power ratings weren't massively different the 350 definitely pulled harder.
@@FranklinsteinsGarage No problem. I'd like to see the trim tag on the cowl by the LH wiper area. There aren't any VIN numbers on that, so no danger of revealing anything there.
By the way I own and drive a 1981 Oldsmobile Delta 88 sedan . Good luck with your Cutlass Supreme you are going to get many Happy years of reliable enjoyment with very little high tech to worry about .
@@FranklinsteinsGarage your welcome now we only have a 2005 Ford Taurus se and our uncle has a 2005 dodge neon sxt they are better than not having a ride hope you get the Oldsmobile running soon
For sure the 350 has to go in it and we will absolutely do a will it run on it first as well, Probably some new gaskets and valve covers and paint as well. Thank you for your comment.
@@FranklinsteinsGarage For paint, find the Oldsmobile Gold (60's and early 70's). For installation, you will need to find the frame mounts from a 1978-1987 Cutlass that had an Oldsmobile 307. Then, lengthen and shorten wires to the accessories. Last, then you will need to update the front suspension coil springs and radiator. Good luck on that project.
Those early 3.8 carbureted v6 engines were terrible. Because it's a Buick derived engine they suffered from oil problems and if the timing cover was wore out it was very common for them to not reprime the oil pump after an oil change or after sitting for long periods of time, as a result spun bearings are very common and I have seen many with rods thrown through the block. That olds V8 should work nicely as a replacement.
Why wouldn’t you have cleaned the trash and debris out of the engine bay BEFORE you started trying to crank it? Seems like a lot of that mess could be ingested into the carburetor and then really messing things up.
I had that exact same car. It was my 2nd car when I was 16 in 1999. It was stolen from in front of my friends house in 2002 in Memphis. Do me a favor and check the interior back quarter panel on the driver side and tell me if there is a "D" carved into it. My high school girlfriend Danielle carved it in there when were in the backseat "Talking". Even if its not mine I would love to buy her from you... how much ?
This one came with a clear title but I will look but I really don't want to sell it I've been looking for one of these cars in ok condition for a while now. Thank you for your comment.
when you get snake no worries either dead cause freeze or move on no food source either way good sign for rodent prevention plus i had few those good low but easy to fix then newer stuff in case something happens
I know it runs on it also just like brake clean I've actually started a lot of engines on that carb and choke cleaner it's just not as combustible as starting fluid. Thank you for your comment.

Was gas left in that car for years? I heard "16 year old gas". I have a 1987 Regal that hasn't moved in 4 years with 4 year old gas in it. Does it have hope to start like this did? Doesn't 1990's gas age better for cars with carburetors since it doesnt have all the synthetics todays gas has? (gas from 4 years ago?)
As others have said, that is a 1983 and newer model. 1982 had a different steering wheel and different tail lights. The easiest way to determine what year it actually is is to look at the VIN number’s 10th digit. If it’s a C then it’s a 1982, a D it’s a 1983, E is 1984. If you post to VIN less the last six digits, I can decode it and tell you what it is.

Also, post the details of the cowl tag which is a metal tag attached to the cowl by the wipers on the left hand side and can be seen when the hood is up. It will give other details about the car too. I'll tell you what you have. It's either US made (first VIN digit is a 1) or Canadian made (first VIN digit is a 2).
It was purchased for a 16 year old girl for her first car and the story I got was she couldn't see real well out of it because she sat to low to drive it. Also he said the v6 kept flooding out but have yet to see that happen. Thank you for your comment.
A lot of people have told me that but the title says 82 the door says 82 and the 10th digit in the vin is C Which indicates 82 so I have to agree that it is an 82. Thank you for your comment.
lol I know I wouldn't have done that had it been a nice V8 in there but honestly the V6 that's in it is a boat anchor anyway. Thank you for your comment.
It came with a V8 engine and transmission in the deal, so running the V6 that is in it was just for fun. We'll work on the V8 and make sure it's cleaned up before we run it in the Cutlass. Thank you for watching.
The V6 does run pretty good but I'm thinking this car needs the rumble of a V8 I mean there is like 2 feet of extra space in there lol. Thank you for your comment.

Me too. It might blow up in a while, the external oil pumps on the 3.8s sometimes dry out when sitting.
That's a nice Cutlass Brougham to refurbish and bring back to life. I found a very nice 1988 Chevy Caprice and put work into it and she's a beauty 👌🏽

looks like a 84 model to me .. not a 82 or 83. I can tell by the grill and the back taillights.
A lot of people have told me that but the title says 82 the door says 82 and the 10th digit in the vin is C Which indicates 82 so I have to agree that it is an 82. Thank you for your comment.
👍👍💯😎😎
Thank you.
What did u do with the 66
In storage
How much did you pay if you don’t mind me asking?
$500
the glass has barnacles lmao, was it in the ocean haha?
Lol there are lots.
It's just what I call all that green fungus that grows on cars that sit for a long time. 😂
I like how you so called car guys hold a car wide open that’s set for years smart 😅 that dry cam and cylinder walls don’t need both but a lil WOT
lol I know I wouldn't have done that had it been a nice V8 in there but honestly the V6 that's in it is a boat anchor anyway. Thank you for your comment.
It came with a V8 engine and transmission in the deal, so running the V6 that is in it was just for fun. We'll work on the V8 and make sure it's cleaned up before we run it in the Cutlass. Thank you for watching.
He he. A lot of crap in that exhaust
Sure was. Thank you for your comment.
V6 was no good when it was new
Exactly. Thank you for your comment.
leave the V-6 in it the other motor 4 the impala
The V6 does run pretty good but I'm thinking this car needs the rumble of a V8 I mean there is like 2 feet of extra space in there lol. Thank you for your comment.
@@FranklinsteinsGarage & the impala any news
Not at the moment I would like to get my square body and Camaro finished first.
So much of this video could’ve been edited out 😅
