WhiteOut Posted April 5, 2004 Report Posted April 5, 2004 Good luck. Your going to need it. According to my local shop there may as well be a three year waiting list for anyone wanting wrecked Cutlass parts. I had to wait over a month to get my car fixed when I got rear ended becuase parts are so hard to find, and all I was waiting on were some fiberglass pieces that act as a facia surround around the rear deck where the top is. You'd be better off going out and trying to hit someone driving one and then offer to buy it when they find out its totalled. Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted April 5, 2004 Report Posted April 5, 2004 GM still sells some convertible top parts. Small brackets and such will run ya $200+ each. The convertible top is probably worth $10k in parts. Quote

Dont ruin the poor cutty Just dont get a top, cut the top off the project car, add the rollbar thing, and keep it in a garage Quote

DOHCRagtopguy Posted April 5, 2004 Report Posted April 5, 2004 My Bro-in-law is selling his 95 Cutty Ragtop, black on black, I think he wants like $3000 for it. I think it has 125K or so on it. With the DOHC motor. Needs some work though. And a new top. Just thought I'd let you all know. PM me if you're interested. Quote
