An interesting name for a car – Cutlass. Yes, that’s what Oldsmobile called their compact car offering between 1961 and 1999. In 1964, the Cutlass graduated to the midsize segment, and also dabbled around as a personal luxury car between 1968 and 1988. That’s what we’ve got here, a third-generation 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Convertible from San Antonio, Texas. The third generation saw some major changes, including fresh and more dynamic styling by Stan Wilen, different wheelbases for two and four-door variants, and some nice V8 power. The Cutlass S was the midrange trim, bookended by the F-85 beneath and the Supreme above. Today, this car is a fine way to relive the glorious Sixties of American automobilia, and do so with a machine from a celebrated brand that’s sadly, no more.
This 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Convertible wears a nice coat of blue paint, but what will really strike you is its interesting frontal design. The angular, jutting-out nose section is framed by triple headlamp clusters that see the parking lamps in the center, flanked by circular headlamps on either side. It sure makes for an interesting face to look at. The rest of the car is pretty standard Sixties stuff, with a long body, considerable overhangs and chrome. Plenty of chrome. At the rear, things taper downwards into a very sleekly terminated tail, with a sizable chrome bumper and slimline taillamps. This car also has some nice alloy wheels. The interior of this 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Convertible is accessed via frameless doors that are very cool, and offers leather upholstered seating for up to four adults. You’ve got a full gauge pack, a thin-rimmed steering wheel and an Oldsmobile-branded push-button radio. A closer look at this radio reveals it to be quite sophisticated for the time, allowing you to adjust the front-rear speaker balance (what we call the fader today), as well as various modes to optimize sound output depending on content – think like equalizer presets. We also see a Vintage Air heating and air conditioning control panel, indicating that this car is equipped as such. A peek under the hood confirms this, with a clearly visible air conditioning compressor.
This 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Convertible is reported to pack a 350ci V8. We aren’t told if it’s a 2-barrel or 4-barrel carbureted version, but either way there’s more than enough grunt on tap. Power goes to the rear wheels via an automatic gearbox.

Named after a fighter jet which in turn was named after a sword, the Cutlass in Oldsmobile speak was a series of cars that was made between 1961 and 1999. It started off as a compact for just two short years before spending the meat of its life in the midsize segment. It also flirted with the Personal Luxury Car segment between 1968 and 1988. Today’s 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Convertible hails from the third generation which was available as a coupe, sedan, hardtop, station wagon and convertible. It’s got the famous Rocket V8 under the hood, and has covered 93,000 miles so far. Now, it rests peacefully in Wellington, Florida, waiting for a new owner to pick it up and care for it. Is that you, then?
Yes, the Oldsmobile Cutlass is named after the sword of the same name. But, it’s also named after the Vought F7U Cutlass fighter jet. What a combination of inspirations for a car from a now-defunct brand. Over its production, the Cutlass would compete in the compact, midsize and personal luxury car segments. That’s quite broad for a single nameplate. Today’s 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass is a third-generation car that hails from Belcourt, North Dakota. We’re told that it has been upgraded with a Rocket 455 engine, making it a real sleeper for those who don’t expect such an old-timey car to be so sprightly. So why not buy it and make it your weekend toy?
Oldsmobile is yet another one of those American automakers who is, sadly, no more. Our country’s storied automotive history is littered with such manufacturers who gave us some truly spectacular machines; yet time and economics were unkind to them. But have you heard of the Oldsmobile Hurst/Olds range? You see, in 1968, Oldsmobile collaborated with renowned aftermarket tuning firm Hurst Performance to create a special line-up of sporty cars. They started with the Cutlass. By 1983, it was time to celebrate 15 years of this amazing partnership, and a line-up of special 15th Anniversary Edition Oldsmobile Hurst/Olds were made. This 1983 Oldsmobile Hurst/Olds 15th Anniversary Edition is one of just 3,001 units made, and comes to you with 14,152 miles. Currently residing in Hiawatha, Iowa, this car packs the iconic Rocket V8 and Lightning Rod transmission combo.

Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.
Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.
Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.
