Beautiful 1960 Oldsmobile Super 88 Sedan BB V8 394 w/ four barrel and Hydramatic Transmission. P/S P/B P/Seat Awesome street cruiser and solid highway driver. Shes a rare car so it really turns the heads and gets a lot of thumbs up. Beautiful mirror finish paint is just moths old. The color is a blend of Black andamp; Red with Gold metallic. Some call it Eggplant. And that description is close. It will look everything from black cherry to cinnamon depending on the light. I apologize that my cell phone doesnt do it justice. Great glass and shiny trim. Emblems present and enamel paint retouched. Strong original chrome with minimal pitting. Lots of rubber replaced...door seals, trunk, window channels, hood andamp; door bumpers. Interior has new AutoMeter instrument panel, Kustom removable center console, seat belts, carpet and custom fitted Mexican blanket seat covers for that SoCal L@@K. Door panels are two-tone vinyl. Headliner is nice but does have a couple small inch long tears and foxing. Original wonder bar radio works. Dome andamp; curtesy lights along with switches all work flawlessly. Factory matched piping around doors. Dash is very nice with exception to one inch long blemish on passenger side. Its not a museum piece, but easy 8 out of 10. All in all very nice. Fires right up, drives anywhere. Runs strong, front end is tight, stops on a dime. Recent full tune up and regular service. Carb andamp; choke has been gone through. Entire braking system, cylinders, bearings have been gone through. Fresh tires (less than 100 miles) with slight combo for an aggressive stance. Front end, idler, drag link, shocks, steering gear box have been replaced. Transmission has been pulled, bearings and seals replaced. Just put on a new alternator, not pictured. Gas tank pulled, cleaned and new sending unit. New water and power steering pump. New radiator, shroud and electric fan with control unit. Lots more to mention and a good deal was invested. The past year since its restoration it has been my daily driver with over 1,300 miles put on during that time. Couple boxes of spare parts go along with it. Enjoy. Shes a sweetie |
