It was the fastest Oldsmobile on the new car lot in 1962 and, the most expensive. This particular Starfire is unusually powerful and drives practically like a new car. It was built the last week of May, 1962 at the historic Oldsmobile plant in Lansing, Michigan. All side glass and the rear window are correctly dated April or May and the original drive train even has its original starter, dated May 3, 1962. A 50 year old car with its original starter is an amazing thing, while also making it easy to believe the 101,500 miles are for real. Need help with the bidding process? Call Doug at 702-353-7500 and give him your absolute highest bid.. If you've read this far, you know why all '62 Starfires are special but what makes this Starfire unique is its incredible condition, inside and out. It's had a re-paint some time ago that looks absolutely glass smooth and the rarely seen original cloth top still looks terrific. Exterior chrome is knockout, the stainless is beautiful and die-cast is good. These were quality cars when new and the quality can still be seen here with great panel alignment, perfectly functioning doors, hood and trunk and bright, crystal clear lenses on all lights. A top dollar car in top survivor condition. Call Doug at 702-353-7500 to streamline your eBay experience. But the best news has to be how this baby cruises. It is no exaggeration to say this Starfire will humble many supposedly "fast" modern cars. This is one seriously powerful Oldsmobile and it tracks arrow straight, steers nicely and stops sure and smooth. The reason for all this excellence, of course is that the hard work and expense of steering and suspension repair has already been done . . . Buying online make you nervous? Call Doug at 702-353-7500 and breathe easy. . . . not only that; bulbs are nearly all new, whatever bad switches there were are new and basically, anything a 100,000 mile car needs to function as new as possible has been attended to. The engine starts immediately, the transmission shifts great and this 50 year old Olds is ready for a trip across the country or a shiny cruise down main street . . . Do you just want to know how much this car will sell for? So do we, hence the auction. Call Doug at 702-353-7500 and own it. . . . if that cruise involves warm and/or hot weather, your Oldsmobile has factory air conditioning and it blows ice cold. Would you expect anything less from a top retail classic? Like the car, hate auctions? Call Doug at 702-353-7500 and make your best deal. (on eBay) Check out the trunk lid fit and how perfectly the chrome trim lines up. The twin exhaust is newer and sounds great. By the way; all Starfires had "color matched" trunks. Instructions to purchase this Oldsmobile . . . step 1, call Doug at 702-353-7500; step 2, buy Oldsmobile. Power steering and power brakes make this rocket a breeze to drive. The cloth top is original and is in superb condition. Prefer buying to bidding? A vintage car at this price deserves a chat with the owner. Call Doug at 702-353-7500. The windows glide up and down easily, the doors are firm and secure and the Wedgewood Mist paint looks spectacular. You can pay small and buy a car that breaks and cost more money later . . . or, you can step up and buy a top vehicle and avoid the headache. The horror stories are true; buying online is a nightmare. Call Doug at 702-353-7500 for a sweet dream of a deal. This is what makes a Starfire really special. Leather was standard and there's enough chrome, stainless and aluminum trim to build an airplane and all of it in this Starfire looks awesome. Serious buyers: call Doug at 702-353-7500. All others: continue bidding until someone else gets the car. Carpet, upholstery, door panels, headliner - it's all good and it's all beautiful. The factory air works great and the radio comes on and you can hear it faintly but not well. Starfire graphics on dash and bright roof bows were part of the interior gingerbread. eBay - the only game in town. Doug at 702-353-7500 - the only way to a quick and easy car deal. A tachometer was standard (This one works when it feels like it, but not consistently, two hours in the shop to diagnose & we still couldn't figure it out.) This Starfire also has the optional remote trunk release that works. One neat feature exclusive to the Starfire are these "aluminum accented carpet inserts" in both the front and rear. Want to know what the reserve is? It doesn't matter, only your offer matters! Call Doug at 702-353-7500 and give him your bottom line, because he won't give you his. 394 Starfire V8 Engine 345 horsepower @ 4,600/440 ft-lb torque @ 3,200 RPM For vastly improved drivability, we installed a brand new Edelbrock carburetor. The original comes with the car. Undercarriage is beautifully presented. Do what 75% of our customers do; call Doug at 702-353-7500 and buy this car. Looks great back here too.
