A Cutlass without an engine is called what? A Gutless Cutlass. Correct, Oshawa, Ontario Canada, with the tag for the brag: ST68 for 1968 model year, 33687 for Oldsmobile (3) Cutlass S V8 (36) Holiday Coupe (87), OS for Oshawa, Ontario Canada assembly, 950 for Black interior trim, T-S for Ivory (T) and Jade Gold (S) two-tone exterior paint, C60 for factory installed air conditioning, D99 for two-tone paint, M31 for three speed automatic transmission. Yes, Wilmington, DE, Framingham, MA, Linden, NJ, Lansing, MI, Fairfax, KS, Southgate, CA, Fremont, CA among other locations. The Oshawa Ontario plant opened in 1953 and then operated until 2019, closing for a time and restarting in 2021, with the first vehicle being a Chevrolet Silverado off the restarted line. I've always been an Oldsmobile fan. They've always made solid cars and solid engines and were very stylish. One note bearing is that "Made in Canada" often had nothing to do with final destination. It was whatever plant had the capacity to produce the given model and where the demand was. Yes, generally the plant closest to the destination usually produced the vehicle, but that wasn't always the case. Dealers traded stock, production stopped in one place, picked up in another, etc. The move to RPO codes on trim tags during this time was occurring as was shown on the 1970 LeMans featured the other day. Also in 1968, GM began to regularly stamp the partial VIN #s (division, model year, assembly plant, and last six of the VIN) on engines and transmissions and the VIN would move up to the dashboard from the driver's door post. However, GM VINs wouldn't have an engine code until 1972. Ford, Chrysler, and AMC had engine codes in their VIN #s prior to 1972. I went on a date with a girl several years back and she said to me that after she got divorced, she sold "some Oldsmobile car with numbers on it" that had been sitting in her driveway that belonged to her ex-husband. She called him a few times to come get it as she was having work done on the driveway and he never did. So she called a junkyard and they came for it. I said, "Was it a 4-4-2 perhaps?" She said, "Yup that was it......" Yikes. No VIN, can't win, but easy to figure out, no doubt: 3 for Oldsmobile, 3687 for V8 Cutlass S two door Holiday Coupe, 8 for 1968 model year, 1 for Oshawa, Ontario Canada assembly and the rest is the production sequence.

A cool crawl that brings back some great memories! In 1974 my girlfriend's dad bought her a 1968 Cutlass. That Cutlass had the best looking front end of all the years, in my opinion, anyway! It was a 4 door ,however, but 2 doors usually were beaten to death by then. Too many 'boy racers' were the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th owners! 😁. It of course had the nylon coated, die cast, camshaft timing gear. I replaced it, and that was about all that the car needed for a lot of years. I forget who supplied the timing gears to GM, but I was surprised to find out a few years later that Ford used them too! With the same lousy, nylon teeth stripping results.

[@Cstoreri]

I just acquired a 1970 Buick GS from the original owner 110k on the clock , the motor never opened so before putting back in service I pulled the timing cover to check the condition of the timing chain and to my surprise the nylon gear was perfect!

@burthenry7740 I had to replace that lousy nylon timing set on my ‘69 Cutlass S as well. That was the one weak link in an otherwise outstanding engine.

[@SteveMagnante]

Many Mopars had them too. The idea was a "silent timing chain" where the softer teeth muted the harmonics of the link-tooth when running. The idea is good but pushed to failure when hot rodders install stiffer valve springs, hotter cams and then rev the engine beyond 5,000 rpm or so. Then the teeth shed. Gotta get them OUT if you hop up an engine with them. The good news is most aftermarket timing sets for hi-perf use are steel toothed. Thanks for watching and writing. -Steve Magnante

I will never forget that exhaust tone that I heard pulling up in the driveway. Big Silver car with black stripes and chrome. It was my soon to be step dad. I'd never met him and he walked up to me and asked me my name.. He kept that car for years racing it at Holiday Beach Dragway and nobody could outrun it. I've spent my life dreaming of someday having one of my own but since there were only 500 or so ever built that hasn't and will never happen.

I have skills and talents when it comes to cars and such. I've recently scored an AMC Javelin with no motor and the front/rear glass smashed in. But it's one of the rare "go package" ones that came with a 401 and a 4 speed manual. My point is that if things go well I can possibly work my way up to having that Hurst Olds I've always wanted... U gotta understand that it means something special to me. As in there's a burning in my stomach. An anxiety that I can't really explain. And if I did ever get one I know I'd obsess over it. Keep it the rest of my years making sure to leave it to someone who appreciates it as much as I do/did/would.... Anyways... Thanks for the response. James E. Carden was his name. He was 20 and bought the car from the showroom floor on his 16th birthday. We were very poor and he asked me my name. Then asked me "would you like for me to let y'all live in my new house?" But I was fixated on his beautiful car. He was murdered in our front yard a week after my 13th birthday. My mother had to sell the car. So, I can't explain really the emotions I felt for a long time. Heartbreak from losing him and losing the car he had promised me for when I graduated. . Sorry but you responded so I felt like I should elaborate a little. I can still remember that exhaust tone from the 455. Cheers from southeast USA. ✌️

Or at least a 68 Cutlass so I could build a clone one. Lol I'm a 53 year old man, 6' and 210 pounds and just the thought makes me tear up.

Hi Steve, great video on this Olds Cutlass S. In today's video, you have changed my personal history. I've mentioned in other comments that I built a 62 Unibody Ford with a 68 350 rocket, but your catalog tells a different story. The 68 Olds donor was a 4dr car, brown in colour. A pole run a stop sign or something, and T-boned the driver's side rear door. Anyway, that engine was a factory 4bl carb engine, and according to your catalog, that could have only been a 400! Man, has me blown away 🤯. So, for anyone who doesn't know back in trade school, I drove a 59 Ford Fairlane 500, and I needed a project and for class. I had 2 '62 Unibody Fords 1 had a 3spd 6 popper. That was on its last leg. So I decided that was gonna be my project. At 1st, it was gonna be a simple blow apart and rebuild the Ford running gear. Well, I was watching this crazy movie called The Son of Frankenstein and had the brilliant idea that my Ford needed the same treatment. My original plan was to stuff a SBC, but as fate has it I ran across this 68 Olds 4dr. I bought the car for little to nothing, $50 I believe. The owner reached in through the window, and the Olds fired right up. Never touched the pedals. Told me that it was the rocket 350. I never checked #s blah blah. Nicknamed the truck, 'Shorty.' I didn't modify anything on the engine or transmission. That truck would come around when it hit 2nd. It didn't just bark the tires it would get plumb sideways with you, and you better be ready to correct, or it would have you pointed in the same direction you came from. Stay warm up there, Steve. Have a blessed day, everyone. Namaste 🙏🏼

yeah, sounds like the 400--I have a 1968 Olds 442 but with a 455. Considering how light in the tail a pickup truck can get and the 6 banger rear gear ratio, i can imagine your description isn't far off :) When I had my 1969 GTO, I needed a 400 drivetrain since mine was gone (the car was a junkyard refugee). I found a 1971 LeMans 4 door with towing package behind a gas station turned repair shop. For $425 the owner even delivered it a week later to my old man's house--whoops, gee, forgot to mention that Dad :) So i had one hot week in July to strip it. Sold the dash for $400, pulled the 2 bbl 400/THM400/10 bolt LSD and the AC setup and the T3 headlights. found someone to take the remainder of the carcass (all they needed was the front windshield but i wasn't going to risk breaking the glass on the back lawn) and whipped together then $25 drivetrain with used parts. i'd say, "those were the days" but of course now kids can buy an LS and make stupid power out of them.

[@chrisscearce]

@albertgaspar627 Hi, thanks for commenting. As our stories are completely different, they are in a since the same. What we had to do to make power with no big $ to spend were ambition, blood, sweat, and sometimes good friends that didn't have nothing else to do. A bit of trial and error to make things interesting. Wish you could have seen the instructor's face when I dragged the 62 and the Olds to the parking lot, and I told him my plans. Luckily, he was just as creative, and after the blank look on his face disappeared, I saw what I like to call a burning desire to not only see it running but the new learning experience ahead.

As Janis Ian said, I learned the truth at 17. In my case, that truth was that a tree would fare better than my first car, a '65 impala SS convertible, in a head-on encounter. While shopping for a replacement, I test drove a 1968 Olds 442 convertible, red with a white interior and a four-speed manual. I don't know what engine was under the hood, but it had been warmed over and sported finned Mickey Thompson valve covers. Just tapping the accelerator would snap your head back. The used car dealer wanted 1200 bucks for it and was willing to take 1,050 of my 1974 dollars, but for some reason, I didn't purchase it. Damn, that was the one that got away. I loved this generation of GM intermediates (1968 - 1972), the glorious muscle car years, with each division having its own V8s and each version (Buick GS, Chevelle SS396, Olds 442 and Pontiac GTO) all having different C-pillar treatments. If anyone knows the whereabouts of that '68 442 convertible that was for sale in Ledgewood, New Jersey, I'm willing to pony up the full $1,200 now. (Edited to add: Now that I think about an almost five decade old memory of my glance under the hood of the 442 ragtop I drove that day, I think the mill was a big block Chevy. I definitely could have hit trees much faster than in my 327 Impala.)

Is there any collation between Cutlass S and Cutlass Supreme?

[@googleusergp]

Both are GM "A" body cars.

Best friend in high school had a 68 cutlass S convertible, 350 rocket 2bbl/2spd st 300( power glide,) added a '70 455 4bbl outta Olds 98 and made for a killer ride. I had a 76 camaro with a built 71 350 lt one - fun times. His momma bought his new while stationed in Okinawa Japan, and paid more to have it shipped back to tenn than the purchase price
