Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

371 300hp J2 three two barrels, automatic, P W, P S, P B, P seat, continental ki,. skirts, spinner wheel covers, wide whitewalls, Autronic Eye, WonderBar radio. A very presentable and usable cosmetic restoration with good paint and interior. Front bumper scratched but rear bumper and trim are excellent. Some weak trim chrome and soft, cracked old rubber seals. Hood fit isnt flush. Chassis has been painted over, not restored. A cruiser with lots of eye appeal.

Market commentary

While inherently rare and desirable, particularly with the J2 engine, the condition of this Olds leaves a lot to be desired. The price is reasonable, but any more than this would push the envelope.
