For sale is my 1960 Oldsmobile 98 2 door. The car was built at the one and only SoCal Suspension for me Eric Conner the Owner of the shop. We spared no expense on this one since it was my first car I bought at 16 years ol, 28 years ago... This is a full kustom car that has been featured at the SEMA show and chosen by Barry Miguiers as one of the top ten car of the 2015 SEMA Show as well as numerous online and print magazines. Starting on the exterior it has had most of the moldings and emblems shaved along with the door handles. Paint job is a custom one of a kind 20,000 dollar beauty. Paint is house of colors gold mix and shines beautifully when the sun hits it from any angle. The front and rear bumper valances, dash, rear deck lid and roof have all been patterned with various gold and silver bases and pinstriped to match. Paint is very well executed as well is the bodywork. Car was completely disassembled in the paint process and painted with all panels removed.

Dash pad has been rewrapped and restitched along with new carpet and headliner, also has matching floor mats custom made and to finish it off a fully custom upholstered trunk. The patterns on the dash flow through the dash to the roof and into the rear custom made deck lid. The steering wheel has been refinished and repainted as well to complete an all new interior. All interior work was done by Lindys Upholstery in La Mesa CA.
