Hi Jeff, How are you? Anyways i have a 1970 cutlass oldsmobile s 350 rocket with matching #'s. It has bucket seats with the wood grain effects and also has original wood grain shifter. it also has the vinal top!! I'm just a bit concerned as to why i can not find any cars identical to this one. Usually it is 69 or 71 or convertible or 442 and so on i have checked hi and low please fill me in with what ever you know. Also i have considered selling it. What would be fair value for it. Condition is excellent with 64,000 miles with orig. manual warranty pkg. and so on. thank you very much for taking the time to answer. sincerely Raymond.

My favorite aunt had a 1970 Cutlass Supreme coupe: dark green in and out, white vinyl top and those same buckets and console!  Great car.  With any model, people tend to save and preserve what's perceived as the "best" or most valuable model.  As a result, we see lots of GTOs and 4-4-2s, but a lot fewer of the more standard models.  Unfortunately, no one can appraise a vehicle they can't see, and I'm certainly one of those people.  You can have an appraiser in your area look at the car, or you can keep an eye on eBay Motors or Hemmings Motor News classifieds to see what they're going for there.
