Market commentary
There were some remarkable cars at Keels & Wheels, but perhaps none as idiosyncratic as this: a 4 4 2 W 30 station wagon. And loaded with options, too. Whats it worth As much as the bidders here wanted to pay for it which, considering how rare this car is, is not a lot of money. If only my father had had an Oldsmobile like this but we would have driven the snot out of it and it never would have survived in such good condition.
