1959 Oldsmobile Super 88 2 door hardtop. Documented One owner California car (still in the original owner's name). You could be the second owner. Nicely optioned car.. power steering, brakes, antenna, wonderbar radio (with foot switch), rear speaker, heater, tinted glass, and 3.64 gears. The car had dealer installed a/c, which I removed (I still have the parts). The car was sitting in a San Diego garage since 1984 when I found it. I have all regestrations dating back to the begining, and several maintenance receipts from the original owner. All the expensive parts have been rebuilt/replaced. The motor is a rebuilt 1964/394 Ultra High Compression block with original (rebuilt) 59 heads/intake, and carb (I do have the original 394 block). The original Jetaway was just completely rebuilt. The original Tradle-Vac was rebuilt by Ed Strain, and entire brake system was completely overhauled. The fuel system was rebuilt from tank to Carburator (including lines, and fuel pump). The generator, and starter were also rebuilt. New belts/hoses, tune up/points, fluids.. and a new battery. I upgraded the wheels to 15 inch GM, and put new tires all around (including the spare). The rims were sandblasted, etch primed, and professionally shot gloss black first. While the motor was out the entire engine compartment was detailed. The exterior still wears the original paint. Has the selling dealer "Colonial Olds" license plate bracket. There are several small dents and sctaches throughout the body. The left fender needs a patch panel, and one in front of the rear wheel. trunk lid has a dent, right rear corner has a dent, the right rocker has a crease (missing right rocker molding have left). There are other small imperfections from age. I consider the body a solid driver. Nothing is out of the ordinary for the year, and nothing is hidden. The interior is 100% original, and survived well over the years. There are a few rips in the cloth, and there are some stress cracks in the dash. The carpet needs to be replaced. Headliner is similar to my 62 Starfire, and though the boards are good the spray foam is long gone. All glass is original, and good (no cracks). The antenna sounds like it works, but the mast does not move. The radio does not work (will check fuse), and fuel gauge always reads full. Everything else works as it should. The car is a very nice driver which you can actually drive without worry. I documented everything I did to the car (both in pics, and recipts).
