What happens when a purveyor of professional performance has an idea for a new project? Well, in the case of this incredible Oldsmobile and Jeff Schwartz, owner of Schwartz Performance, the result is pretty much gold! Sourced from the daughter of its original owner as a rust-free, 46K-mile driver, this Cutlass was subjected to a world-class, ground-up restoration that was completed in late 2009. The car’s vivid 2-stage is officially called Barrio Gold and, yes, all those attractive stripes are sprayed. And in 2015, Jeff Schwartz conducted a detailed freshening that included addressing the build’s few pop-up issues and applying fresh paint. Tilt this classic’s functional Ram Air Hood and you’ll find 455 cubic inches of stroked Chevrolet Performance LS7 that twists a massive 601 horsepower into 580 lb./ft. of rocket-launching torque! Bottom-side, a requisite Schwartz G-Machine chassis fits well under a massaged transmission tunnel and wide mini tubs. A tough Tremec T56 6-speed spins a custom driveshaft, which is threaded to an aluminum Winters 9-inch that’s finished with 31-spline axles, 3.50 gears and a Detroit Truetrac differential. Power-assisted stops are provided by Baer 6S calipers, which squeeze drilled, 14-inch rotors. Turns come courtesy of power rack-and-pinion steering. And everything rolls on gold Forgeline SP3Ps, which lap Michelin Pilot Sports. Between the doors, heavily bolstered RECAROs, power-operated units that are both heated and cooled, have, along with a factory bench, been decked in quality leather. Front and center, a monochromatic dash hangs factory telemetry over components for Vintage Air conditioning. And the driver enjoys the car’s power through a short Hurst shifter and a tilting Rallye Wheel. Ready to bring home one of the coolest pro-tourers on the market?
