1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass 4-4-2 Convertible & Coupe Apparel and Accessories by Legend Lines

“Oldsmobile”For 1971 Oldsmobile no longer offered the sport coupe body-style, leaving only a coupe or convertible to select from. The Sport Coupe would be gone for only a short time, re-appearing the following year. The muscle car era was coming to an end due to stricter government regulations, safety concerns, and an impending oil embargo. As a result, vehicles throughout the industry saw a decrease in power. This was true for the Oldsmobile 442, which saw its standard engine receive a lower compression ratio, decreasing the horsepower to 340. The W-30 unit produced 350. This would be the final year the 442 was its own model. In 1972 it reverted to being an option. It was an option for a number of years lasting until 1980. It was used again from 1985 through 1987 as an option on the Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon. In 1990 the name appeared for the final time as an option on the Cutlass Calais. It was nothing like the original.
