Nice Cutlass. What is the name of that color? Emberglow or something like that?

My father-in-law has a 1971 Cutlass S ragtop in the same color! It belonged to his brother prior to him getting it.

----I had a pretty decent 71 442 Bittersweet with matching interior for a year or two as a daily driver in fair to good weather. It had AC but little else so over a period of time I added a bunch of options. Guage package, ram air hood, 8-track and stereo, correct optional wheels, 4-spoke steering wheel and tilt column. Back then you could find most of that stuff all at one trip to Peotone. Loved that color combo, still do!....Bill S

No, I haven't touched it. Need to get back on it though and get the a/c charged now that the weather switch has flipped to hot!

Well, at least you got to see the good side when driving it!
This is my 5th '70 to '72 Cutlass/442. They are nice driving cars.
Here's my first one from 1983-84, I bought it from a used car lot.
