It's a sad time for the family as both of my in-laws are going into senior care this week due to memory issues. My father in law, Wayne was a Viet Nam Vet and is also suffering from Agent Orange effects and Parkinsons just to add to the whole dilemma .
He has a 1971 Olds Cutlass Supreme Convertible that he has owned for at least 23 years after inheriting it from his late brother. He used to cruise this baby across the state to all the semi-local cruise nights and car shows over the years. My wife went up to NY State this week and took some photos. She also has the file folder on the car so I am waiting for her to bring that back since it may have original paperwork. The body looks beautiful to me but I have no idea where to look on an Oldsmobile engine block and trans for the VIN to see if its the original 350 in it. Any suggestions would be welcomed at this point. We are looking for a value estimate since any money from this sale will go for their medical care. What do you guys think? You can reply here or email me at nk15268@ hotmail.com Update: Given everyone's input, I did end up posting a price of $30K in the facebook link so hopefully that helps.

underside stuff. Looks like a ton of factory undercoating down there.

Sorry to hear about your in-laws. Nice looking car, great color combo and paperwork is a plus. I'd say $30 to $35K as a starting point.

Funny how they charged more for the 2BBL when the Supreme comes standard with a 4BBL.

Crazy thing is that I didn’t ask the wife to check if it’s a 2bbl or a 4bbl. Can you tell from the tiny bit of the carb you can see in the photos?

It does appear to be a 2BBL.

So they came standard with a 4bbl and someone ordered it with a 2bbl instead? I recall they had a similar GTO option around 1969 for that kind of craziness.
