Vehicle Detail
I am selling this absolutely stunning, very rare, custom 1959 Oldsmobile 98 convertible for an elderly friend of mine. He bought this beautiful, rust free car from his best friend over 30 years ago and it has always been pampered and garage kept since new. This car was professionally built - sparing no expense - by one of the best custom car builders around. The car was finally completed about eight years ago and is showing only minor imperfections. The car has a beautiful, straight, rust free body - refinished in its original (paint code J-J) Frost Blue color. The underneath also looks fantastic. The trim has been removed and replaced by custom airbrushed painted on trim. The door handles have been shaved and are now opened by electric poppers. The bumpers are coated in a metal flake finish. The interior is also amazing - finished in the same tri-color blue as it was when new. The top looks and operates fantastic with its deep blue haartz cloth material and its completely restored power top system. The power windows, power seats and power trunk also work great. The entire mechanical system - from the original 394 cubic inch V8 engine and the Hydra-matic transmission to the suspension and brakes - have been completely rebuilt. This car is an absolute pleasure to drive. Everything on the car works as it should except the factory radio and clock. The car starts, runs, drives, shifts, brakes, handles and sounds excellent. The car is nicely detailed and ready for a collector, enthusiast or just fun convertible lover. This car is ready to drive cross country, enjoy or show immediately. Current NADA Book Value: Low - $25,400; Average - $62,000; High - $111,300. I have 100% positive feedback (please read) because I don't exaggerate the condition of cars. This is truly a great investment climbing in value every year. This car is being sold without reserve as I feel this is the only fair way to sell a car at auction. If you have any question, please call Ken directly (quickest and preferred) at 513-403-7386, or email, and I will help you. $2,000 due in 48 hours, balance due in 7 days. Car is located in Cincinnati, Ohio 45248. I can help with shipping arrangements if you would like.
