Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

303/135hp, automatic, pushbutton radio, stoplight viewer, pushbutton radio, radio, skirts, hubcaps trim rings, wide whitewalls, fog lights, windshield washer, side window visors.

Condition

Very good paint, chrome and interior except for two touched up stone chips and a new scratch on the front of the hood. Engine reeks of old, stale gasoline. A seriously nicely done Olds that has been well cared for after restoration.

Market commentary

The second year for Boss Kettering's high compression overhead valve V-8, a fact that by itself makes this a desirable auto to own. The restoration makes it even better and is a car that needs no excuses, whether for condition, equipment or price.
