Market commentary
Sold at Barrett-Jackson in 2013 for $68,200, which was a modest but reasonable result at the time. This time around, Oldsmobile buyers must have had their eyes on other 4-4-2s at Westworld or elsewhere in Scottsdale, because this car just didn't get very much attention. The buyer paid worn-out driver money for a relatively recent body-off restored car. An astute purchase.
