I also thought that style Olds was one of the better looking mid size cars of the period.

So glad you have been able to love and use the Cutlass for close to 30 years - like @sda, I wish I was in a position to take the mantle of ownership.
Here’s hoping for a quick sale to someone who will cherish it just as much as you.

Wonderfully honest description and many great pics--the way a seller gets the most out of a sale.
Good luck on the sale and also with your health.
Good luck with the sale. I hope it finds a great home. I’m sure it’s tough letting it go.

Every time I see an Eagle woody wagon, I think "Jennifer!".

I think this would have been a brand new car at the time of filming:

That said, in general the interiors were cheapened across the line I think, in '71.
I had a high-school friend whose family had a '70 Impala and a '71 Impala, at the same time. The '70 was a four-door pillared sedan, and the '71 was a Custom Coupe. He often said that the '70 was a more solid car. I do know that even though I goof on fake woodgrain inside, it's preferable to hard, crinkle black plastic which was prevalent on the instrument panel of the '71 Impala.
That seating on the '70 Electra 225 Limited is absolutely gorgeous; top-quality.
RE.: The Eagle--I always thought Studebaker did more with less than AMC, including a full truck line through the end of U.S. production, and I carried that thought throughout the rest of AMC's life. My uncle had a new '72 Hornet, and a couple 4WD Eagles after that. He liked them, and that's all that mattered I guess. Unlike a '64 Hawk, I can't say I think the Hornet styling was so timeless it lasted into the eighties, but I do have to give AMC credit for doing what it felt it had to to hang in there. Sadly, word is that Chrysler got rid of their inventory of AMC parts at some point.
My best man was a Chrysler field service rep in the '80's. He said that Kenosha built Fifth Avenues better than Chrysler did.

Definitely, a nice car though! Those old brocade fabrics didn't always hold up so well over time, but when they've been well cared for, or re-upholstered, they definitely look nice.
Not sure why.

A bad thing that Buick did then, IMHO, is on the Electra 225 Custom models, and in fact on Wildcat Custom models earlier, is that the cars said "Custom" no place--inside or out. If you see a front-seat center armrest, it's a Custom. I can only wonder how many buyers were screwed on their trade-ins later by salesman who figured the Custom cars were base models since there were no Custom nameplates anywhere.
The car is in beautiful condition. I always liked that brown that seemed to be an early '70's GM staple, with a light-colored interior.

Saw this on fb, amused me - and I think that license plate frame is from the same dealer where the fintail was sold new:

Thinking back, this kid also sometimes drove a yellow Gremlin X, which I think belonged to his dad, so there was an odd car thing in his family, too.

Wasn’t it Chrysler who started the warranty wars around 1985 or so? I remember 5/50 power train was a big deal and then 7/70 came later.
