Holy old thread but YES!!!!!!!!!!! Black Cutlass with red interior FTMFW, DGAF what people say about red interiors. I love it!

I'm starting to think we did NOT have a Phantom FE3 now. Our ground FX are different. If you go to page 3 of my thread, you can see the pics of the ground effects kit we pulled off. We never had problem with any cracking, the back piece got hit lightly on one inside corner but that's not from the weather...of course it rains all the time here in the Seattle area, no salt on roads either, just like going to the car wash all the time from the rain!

This is not our car, but the ground FX kit we have is almost identical.

yeah i thought the phantom had the more ribbed style ground effects. this one looks more like the pace car front bumper, but i def like it

Pretty cool car! No sport pod and a different center console than I've ever seen - is that a compartment in front of the '1 1of 200' plaque? Can you post another pic of that setup and another view of the spoiler? Someone I know has a factory W-body spoiler for sale, I'm wondering if it's that one...

I'm officially jealous of the phantom owners. That and the black looks so good.

What do the graphics read on the front part of the door? I can't quite make it out. Love the pics!!!

Very nice, cool car! Great condition too, thanks for the extra pics!

Posted

So do you have the first one made? Or does the 1 of 200 plaque just mean it was one out of the 200 made?

ManicMechanic (Jay) just send me these pics, so I'm going to post them here for the FE3 Phantom Fans! Our rear bumper/ground FX cover once had the CUTLASS SUPREME SX decals. I can still see where they were if I look at it in the right light. I plan on putting the decals back on for our 1988 Indy 500 Pace Car tribute car. I figure, the gaudy decals will make it look more like a Indy 500 Pace Car. You know how Oldsmobile/IMS had to tatoo everything everywhere, especially if it was old school!

I found another Cutlass Supreme SX online, here's the pics. It appears the Phantom FE3 & the Cutlass Supreme SX were 2 different Dealer options, from what I can gather in the descriptions. The sure way I can tell the difference is the rear spoiler, it has 3 mounting points underneath it, the Phantom only has 2. The ground FX kits are close, but different too. No Phantom Decals on the SX, just the huge lettering on the back bumper cover. There has to be someone who knows this stuff officially...

I'm guessing this wrecked one is a Phantom FE3, and the other one...I have no clue!

There's one of my lost pics...Of the wrecked car. Maybe I have the rest of them, I will have to investigate further.

One things for sure, whatever they are they only came in Red, White or Black....I think? I'm still waiting on a Blue Convertible FE3 pic I asked about earlier today. Thanks for all the pics gang, this is making me feel all SCI Investigator and stuff :)

Posted

I think I have a pic of a blue Cutlass GST somewhere...

OK Jay, that's a little too familiar. It looks good though! We already have some checkered flag decals we're thinking about adding, now it's a go for sure!

 

Thanks for thinking of me bud.
