Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Starlite V8 engine, automatic transmission, narrow whitewall tires. Razor straight bodywork and trim. Some pitting on drivers side door trim. New vinyl on seats. Restored dash with very minor pitting. Engine bay well detailed and clean. Just far enough past its restoration to drive without guilt.

Market commentary

Judging by the success of AMCs Mad Men and the explosion in the prices of mid century modern furniture, the early Sixties are in. This Olds Starfire was no exception. At most times a crowd gathered to take in its fantastic color, condition, and style. Maintaining the miles of chrome trim will be a task but the color and style will likely never grow old. This was not exceptional money for an exceptional car.
