1973 lineup, including three station wagons, the

CRUISER (foreground), and the' spacious Cu*

1972 Oldsmobiles Reported
To Be Beautifully Restyled
Oldsmobile’s beautifully re
styled 1972 cars incorporate
several major engineering ad
vancements, including an in
novative spring steel bump
er support system designed to
greatly reduce now impact
collision damage.
The new system is being in
troduced initially as the front
bumper on the 1972 Delta 88’s,
98’s and the Custom Cruiser
station wagon. An Oldsmobile
exclusive, the spring steel
bumper support system permits
these 1972 Oldsmobiles to strike
a stationary object or another
car at minor (parking lot) speed
without damage to the bumper
bar itself, the surrounding
sheet metal, or any other part
of the car.
The spring steel supports
yield upon impact and spring
back to their original position.
In addition, both front and
rear bumpers of the 88’s and
98’s, and the front bumper
Of the Toronado are equipped
with protective rubber strips
for better light impact perfor
mance. Bumper guards con
tinue optional on the 1972
Cutlasses, Delta 88’s, and
Custom Cruiser.
In other areas of public con
cern, the 1972 Oldsmobiles are
being built with an even more
intensive Quality control sys
stem. The company has expand
ed its reliability recheck pro-_
gram to cover 100% of produc
tion at its main assembly plant
in Lansing. All cars undergo
hundreds of inspection checks
during assembly, but, in addi
tion, are now re-inspected upon
completion as they pass through
a brand new 45,000 square foot
facility. In the reinspection pro
cess, the car’s electrical and me
chanical operations are fullv
rechecked, as are the dial and
gai^ge functions, lubricant levels,
and the underhood, underbody
When you think of prescrip
tions. think of VARNER’S, adv.
and truck areas.
A third area of public con
cern is the control of automo
tive emissions. Here, too,
Oldsmobile engineers have
more than met, the increasing
ly stringent Federal and Cali
fornia exhaust emission re
quirements. All of Oldsmo
bile’s 1972 engines are equip
ped with valve rotators on
both intake and exhaust val
ves, a feature pioneered by
Oldsmobile in 1970. Compared
to uncontrolled engines, the
1972 Oldsmobile power plants
emit less than l/6th the
amounts of hydro . carbons
and carbon monoxide.
In styling, all 1972 Olds
mobiles have undergone sub
stantial front and rear improve
ments with specific exterior ap
pearance changes and bright
new interiors.
The number of Oldsmo
mile models in 1972 is reduc
ed from 28 to 25. The Delta
Custom series has been dis
continued, leaving the Delta
88 and an expanded Delta
Royiale line of cars. The Del
ta Royale line of cars. The
Delta Rovale is produced in
four models; hardtop coupe
and sedan, a pillar sedan and
a convertible.
The 4-4-2, formerly marketed
as a separate series, is now op
tional in the Cutlass coupes and
Cutlass Supreme convertible.
The handling characteristics of
the 4-4-2’s suspension system
and power train are now more
widely available.
The Turbo Hydra - Matic
400 transmission is standard
eouipment in 1972 on aU
Oldsmobiles equipped with the
445 cubic inch engine. A mod
ified version of the 400 is
standard on those Delta 88’s
and Vista Cruisers ordered
with the 350 cubic inch en
gine.

continues as an option on all
Cutlass models. The standard
engine in these cars is the 350
cubic inch V-8. The L-6 engine
has been discontinued.
On all of the full • size
1972 Oldsmobiles, the very
successful “G” ride suspen
sion system is continued, with
tuning refinements to achieve
even higher standards of ride,
comfort and handling.
An example of a tuning
change, on the Delta 88’s, 98’s
and the Custom Cruisen is the
relocation of the righthand en
gine mount to correct the im
balance resulting from engine
accessories not being evenly dis
tributed about the engine cen
terline. The new mount loca
tion equalizes the forces trans
mitted through the mounts in
to the frame and makes the car
more pleasing from the stand
point of ride smoothness and
quietness.
Other mechanical improve
ments found on the 1972
Oldsmobiles include more
fade - resistant drum brakes
on the Cutlass models, the use
of air outlets in the door
lock pillars in the flow-thru
ventilation system on all full
size models, thus eliminat
ing decklid air exhaust louv
ers.
