1955 Oldsmobile Ninety Eight

Beautiful original Frost Blue with nice matching interior (all original).   This is a well preserved original survivor.   Purchased new in New Mexico and then spent the next 40+ years in Arizona with an Oldsmobile collector.   Has been in Florida for three years.   Always garaged and cared for.  

There are not many Ninety Eights left. and to find one with all of these options. is a very rare find .   Draws lots of attention at all the car shows and cruise-ins.   Has won several trophies over the past couple of years.

 

Features/options:

324ci "Rocket" V8 Engine (4 BBL. 202 hp) Hydra-Matic Transmission (4 Speed Automatic) Power Steering Power Brakes Power Windows Power Antenna Wonder Bar Radio (not working) Rear Speaker Factory Padded Dash Courtesy Lights Parking Brake Light Factory Air Conditioning (not working) WWW Tires Fender Skirts Seat/Safety Belts Traffic Light Viewer Detailed engine and trunk compartments Recent tune-up. oil change. and check-up (runs great!)

 

The original "Rocket" V8 makes good power and starts well everytime.   Idles very smooth. quiet. and no lifter noise (or smoke).   The transmission also works very well and goes through of the gears nicely.   The car runs and drives excellent.   Keeps up with modern traffic at highway speed with ease.

 

Car is very nice and very solid.   No rust issues to deal with (great under-carriage).   Chrome and stainless is very nice original.   The car has some obvious age flaws and the original Frost Blue has a lot of touch up present. but the car still displays well as is.   The interior is also nice with good working gauges and most accessories (including directional signals. lights. parking brake. nbsp;all four power windows. etc).   Electric fuel pump has been added and the car runs cool. even on a hot day in traffic.   Factory A/C was working great as of late last year. however. it is not working currently.   Overall. the car looks and drives great.   Ready to drive and enjoy right away.

 

A really fun car and great investment .   Good original '55 Olds Ninety Eights are very hard to find.
