Cheap Thrills: Bonehead's Olds

First things first -- you don't get much for $2,500. And with this 67 Cutlass, it's not clear what you get. The owner in Hyattsville, Maryland, says the 350 doesn't run because he "drove it with no oil cuz the oil cap came off and I didn't notice."
If he means he smoked a joint while changing the oil and forget to replace the oil plug, we can sympathize. But if he's saying all the Quaker State sprayed out through the valve cover and burned up on the block without him noticing, we're calling bullshit. Doesn't happen.
Engine aside, this Olds looks like a sweet deal. We love the body style and this one looks clean, at least in the photo. Owner says he took it to Maco, which is cause for concern. Then again, don't get much for $2,500. Guy says it has to go. Baby on the way. We hope he takes better care of it.
