Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Automatic, P W, spotlight, steering wheel mounted clock, skirts, wire wheel covers. Not a great restoration but sound and complete. Thick repaint, good interior and chrome, fair door fits.

Market commentary

This IS your fathers Oldsmobile, and an attractive example at that. The restoration wont grace the lawn at Pebble Beach, but its going to be a lot more rewarding driving it around anyway. The price, however, seems more appropriate to a Fiesta than a 98.
