Hi to all. p>Up for auction is a 1961 olsmobile super 88 celebtiy sedan with 24900 original miles. I am the third owner or the second since the dealer I bought it from 6 years ago owned it for a day.

The car is a true survivor the interior is all original and untouched. the front seat has a dealer installed seat cover on the bench part. all the gauges work.

Since I owned the car I kept up with its maintenance and changed parts that needed replacement. the back shocks were changed . he date correct Rochester carb was rebuild by professionals out of NY . he brake lines for the back were remade as well as a complete brake job and full tune up. never put more than 1/3 a tank to prevent bad gaz I also changed a few cosmetic things like the chrome bumper fins in the back and a light bezel in the front. had a modern radio/cd with two speaker in the package tray. the trunk has the original factory carpet and the interior carpet is original but discolored

The engine purrs like new. it has 24900 original miles with the original compressor. The person who ordered this car wanted the bigger engine but none of the creature comforts.

so the car has radio delete. ower brakes delete. lock delete power steering delete. and there is no ac unit but the air works.

It is currently inspected and registered and perfectly safe to drive.

The things I would do to it

replace the muffler(small holes)

front window rails are rusted out they need help

windshield motor needs a little whack sometimes

full repaint is definitely needed but clean and waxed paint still will shine nicely.

I would drive this car cross country tomorrow it has never in 6 years left me stranded.

I tried to describe the car to the best of my ability but of course I will answer any questions you might have.

This car is a great candidate for a hot rod of some kind. fully restored but it is an untouched original piece of American automobile history and can be driven and enjoyed as is.

the reserve on the car is fair  and the buyer will have to arrange for transportation and is his responsibility (about $800) across country.

I will facilitate pick up with carrier of course. local pick up is also a possibility.

The car comes with a clear mass title

 I Thank you for reading .

I have been asked about the rust situation and I will try to upload more picture but just to give you an idea the tar factory undercoating is still present under the whole car. The body mounts are not rotted or rusted out. this car was stored inside all its life. the previous(original owner) told me the whole story of how he bought it. I was able to find the family with the info on the title.

Thank you

sincerely RB
