Equipment
Automatic, radio, heater, clock, dual enclosed sidemounts, fog lights, hubcaps, beauty rings, rumble seat. Sound older restoration that shows its age and use. Not up to todays standard of restorations but a handsome and very usable Olds.
Market commentary
The real important attribute of this 38 Olds is its Safety Automatic transmission, the first appearance of what would become in 1939 the Hydra Matic automatic. In 38 it still had a clutch for stopping and starting. This is a true automotive milestone, as well as a handsome, luxurious, powerful convertible. It is worth every dollar paid for it here today,
