Vehicle Description
This is an example of when American cars were long and sleek, and
the stylists ruled the road. So look over all of this 1960
Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 Holiday Coupe, and you'll realize how rare an
opportunity this V8 hardtop really is.
With only a two-year production run, this is one of the rarest
full-size Oldsmobiles around. The era of extra wide cars is
showcased where each of the quad headlights has room for their own
individual pod, and the hood is as long as the horizon. And the
sheetmetal is absolutely an amazing design. A crisp crease in the
rear starts a style line that runs all the way around the car. And
the trim does a fantastic job of mimicking the sleek roof line. But
as amazing the Olds designers were in 1960, it's even more
astonishing how well it's still presented today. The panels are
quite straight and the factory-correct Garnet Red benefits from a
respray later in life. There are some subtle upgrades, like the
headlight eyelids and wire wheel covers, but it's all about
delivering a cool cruising Olds.
The gray interior has a tasteful look, especially with the updated
seats with comfy velour inserts. So it's nice that this coupe has
the room to take family and friends along for the ride. But the
driver is the one who gets to enjoy this Olds the most. The
wraparound windshield and stylized two-spoke steering wheel gives
you a commanding view of the whole road. It's the kind of
thoughtful design that comes from an era when artists were working
on interiors. And all of the components are in place - from the
extra wide speedometer to the Wonderbar AM radio - so you get to
experience this bright dash in all its glory. And you might have
noticed the factory-style air conditioning (will need servicing)
for that extra touch of luxury Olds presentation.
A big coupe needs a big motor, and that's why it carries a correct
394 cubic-inch V8 with a four-barrel carburetor on top. In fact, we
bet people will marvel at classic details, like the golden block
paint. Thanks to their durable construction, Oldsmobile engines of
this vintage are known for their longevity. Today the motor still
fires up quickly and with a precision that's an instant reminder of
Oldsmobile's quality reputation. This is a luxurious Olds 88, and
so the driving experience is meant to be an easy one. That's why it
comes with features like the Jetaway Hydramatic automatic
transmission, power steering, and power brakes.
This was a very unique year to own an Olds. So if you don't act
quickly, you might never see an awesome hardtop like this again.
