Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight 1955 Description
I bought this car a few years ago. It is an older restoration and is in great shape. When I acquired the car, it needed a rebuild to the engine, which was done less than 100 miles ago. In the restoration, it appears the front floor board was replaced in the restoration, otherwise I didn't identify any replacement panels or damage. Frame is clean and straight, overall car runs and drives very good. The top is hydraulic and still operates as it should. This is a fun car to drive.Two tone paint is in excellent condition, shows extremely well. The interior is like new with no tears. The convertible top is new and operates as it should. Body panels line up nicely and there are no unusual "gaps" like you see in a lot of restored cars. The floor pan was replaced when the car was restored. The hydramatic transmissions shifts as it should and the car runs down the road nicely and stops as it should. The engine compartment is nicely detailed and looks as good as it runs.
