STK 3623 1950 Oldsmobile 88
The 'Oldsmobile 88' was the top-of-the-line Oldsmobile in 1950. This restored Olds 88 2-door sedan is a rare example of a classic early factory 'muscle car'. The solid exterior is finished in single-stage black that is in overall good condition and rust is not an issue. All chrome is good and accents include a classic '50s chrome grill, stunning 'Rocket 88' hood ornament and steel wheels w/center caps that mount BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires. The restored cloth interior shows very well. Upholstery, door cards, headliner and carpeting are all in good condition. The dash holds the original AM radio (needs TLC) and there is a full set of working gauges, center timepiece and beautiful wheel. The Olds is powered by the infamous 303ci OHV 'Rocket 88' V8. These engines were equipped with a 2-barrel carburetor in 1950, but this engine appears to have been retro-fitted with a '52 Olds 4V intake and rare Uremco 4-barrel carb. The engine compartment is detailed and chrome accents have been added. Electrics have been converted to a 12V alternator-based system w/new battery/regulator and the dual exhaust system is also new. If we understand correctly, the '50 Oldsmobile was factory equipped with a 4-speed Hydra-Matic transmission that is designed to start out in 2nd gear when 'Drive' was selected and progress to 3rd/4th. If you selected 'Lo' and stomped on it, 1st gear would engage and you would take flight. (Information on this version of the Hydra-Matic is somewhat limited, available only on '50-'52 models.) The clean, solid chassis is equipped with manual steering and 4-wheel drum brakes. Factory suspension design is 'Knee-Action' front/rear coil springs and sway bars. This Olds 88 is ready for a new owner who will appreciate a classic 'muscle' sedan. ALL VEHICLES SOLD “AS IS”.
