Up for sale is my personal 1950 Oldsmobile 88 2 door sedan. I will try and make this as informative as possible. without trying to ramble on. First off if you have been looking for an origional. rust free 50 Oldsmobile your done looking. You will NOT find another Oldsmobile like this. possibly ever. again. This car has 19. 35 origional miles! (Yes you read that right)Hear is the short and sweet story. I bought the car in 2008 from the son of the 2nd owner. (First owner died shortly after buying it. Second owner bought it from the widow in the 50's. He drove it almost. never. Parked it in a building in the mid 60's. The second owner died in the 80's and it sat until I bought it. ) It was verified by the 2nd owners son that it is in fact the origional miles as his dad never drove it. After you look at it you'll also be convinced that this is not a hoax. I own a restoration/hot rod shop and purchased it for my personal vehicle. never intending to sell it. However. I currently am in the progress of building 2 custom cars for myself and because I never drive it and it never left the storage building  last year. I felt it was time to free up some cash and let someone else be her caretaker now. It has had only the best care while i owned it and everything I did was in an attempt to leave it as origional as possible or professional repair any item that it needed. Items that I have done since owning it are as follows: New dual exhaust with "smithy" mufflers. wheel cylinders and brake shoes. master cylinder. carb. kit. fuel filter. oil and filter changes. fan belts. antifreeze flush. diamond back wide white radial tires. bulbs as needed. I have put on approximatly 1000 miles since owning it since 2008. It drives great! I will give it an oil change and new battery before it's sold. The battery is working ok but it's an 08 and I feel that it's time for a new one. This was not an easy decision for me to let this old car go. I think my wife it more attached than i am and thats saying alot. This car will go where ever you want to go. It drives and runs great. I do feel alittle guilty driving it though as they are only origional once. My dream would be that she would go to a museum so that everyone (including myself) could enjoy it's originality. But once it's gone. its gone and I have no more power over it's outcome. Pictures don't do this car justice and anyone is welcome to come and look at it. I will not let anyone but the next owner drive it though. so don't ask. The only bad parts on the car that i can say it the following: A 6-8" crack in the windshield. it was like that when i bought it and hasn't gotten any worse. NO rust except for on the LH fender skirt (See picture). A few small dents. dings and chips. As far as I can tell it's all the origional paint and it still shines very well. It's never been repainted and for being 63 years old is looks pretty darn good. We also have. what we believe is the origional tires that came on the car when it was new. They still held air. and I will give them to the new owner if they want them. They make a great conversation piece. The interior seats had clear vinal protectors (that will also be included) and we removed them the seat upholstery is perfect! the foam is still soft and the cloth is still flexible. No indication of mice EVER. no holes in the fabric or chewing on wiring. The cloth wiring is still in remarkable condition. IT's NOT rotten or fraying. Yuo can tell that this car was under cover. out of the sunlight for years. This thing is a time capsule that wont require any work unless YOU want to. It still has the origional speckle floor mat. NOT a replacement black rubber one. This is not a car "flip". It is my personal car. It will be sold at a very reasonable price considering what some of the others on here are asking for theirs with a ton more miles than this one. I have no doubt that it will sell at the price I'm asking. don't wait bid now. Like I said when it's gone. it's gone and I will miss it and you wont get another chance. Your more than welcome to call and talk to me about it IF your truly serious about owning it. MY phone number is my shop number and I'm always very busy. If you calling to just talk cars DONT. I do that all day. already. I will be happy talk to the next potential owner though. 319-527-7637 If your close enough I will show it to you if you like (providing it's not raining. which it seem to be doing alot of lately) Again NO test drives. buy it and you can drive it when ever you want. Sorry for the pictures. I took them last evening after working and it was raining (again) so I had it in my showroom. I'll post any other pictures that you may want just let me know.
500 deposit with in 24 hours by pay pal. the balance is due BEFORE the transport shows up. Title is ready it go and the plates are up to date. Good luck and I hope it goes to a great future home.
