27k Mile Time Capsule: 1980 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser

Six Cylinder Looker: 1980 Pontiac Firebird

Stored 30 Years: 1958 Cadillac Fleetwood Series 75

The ’70-’72 GS always seem to steal all of the Buick intermediate thunder; the ’68-’69 versions? Not so much. Under the skin, they’re basically the same car but it’s that skin – lots of differences going on there. I’ll… more»
