Oldsmobile Starfire 1965 Description
Rare 1965 Olds Jetstar up for auction with NO RESERVE425 V8. 83K. Options include power steering. power brakes. power top and am/fm radio with rear speaker. As the link below explains. the value and rarity of the '65 Jetstar is steadily increasing. particularly with the optional high output 425 V8; only 2900 Jetstar convertibles were made. far fewer with the 425. The mid 60's Jetstar/88 models are particularly desirable; the engines have higher compression and increased horsepower. https://www. hagerty. com/price-guide/1965-Oldsmobile-Jetstar_88Mechanical: The Imperial has always been regularly maintained. She's powerful. smooth and quiet. just a pleasure on the highway cruising along at 75. Recent master cylinder and brake work including booster and master cylinder. new muffler. valve cover gaskets. high output distributor from a 70's Cutlass (no points to mess with) as well as a new set of tires. Road ready. she starts easy and is dependable. No leaks. garage floor always dry. No noises from anywhere. the 425 has that nice deep rumble. AM/FM radio works intermittently. Power top works easily with no help necessary. Cosmetic: Interior was redone by an upholstery shop that specializes in classics; seat vinyl with new cushioning. carpet. door panels. and a new convertible top. The Jetstar was painted about 20 years ago but could use a respray. she's presentable but the paint and bumpers are dull. The rear quarters were replaced when the car was painted. you can see the weld spots in the trunk shots. The front passenger floor was replaced at the same time. Otherwise the Olds is fine. frame. wheel wells and trunk solid as seen in the pix. She's in nice driver condition overall. Cruises nicely on the highway. runs strong. LOTS of power from the 425 V8. tracks straight and brakes evenly. no pulling or fading. suspension and steering are good. She's roadworthy. all directional/brake/turn signal/headlights and the horn work. Rare classic Oldsmobile with no reserve price. winning bidder gets her! Any questions feel free to call or email. Nine One Four. Two Two Four. Three Two Three Zero.
