The sixth generation of Oldsmobile's 98 model debuted in 1959, with
a completely redesigned look, featuring sleeker body lines,
indicative of future models. For 1960, the Oldsmobile line was
slightly restyled while keeping the underpinnings and rooflines
from 1959. The 98 once again represented the top-of-the-line
offering from Oldsmobile, and was available in the same four body
styles as the year prior. In keeping pace with other marques, the
98's list of standard features grew. For 1960, the rarest 98 model
was the Convertible with just 7,284 produced.
This 1960 Oldsmobile 98 Convertible is finished in Provincial White
with a white top and tri-color interior. The car is powered by
Oldsmobile's legendary "Rocket" V-8 engine, which is paired to an
automatic transmission. It is luxuriously equipped with power
windows, seat, convertible top, steering, and brakes. The beautiful
tri-tone interior features a clock and Wonderbar radio. This
Oldsmobile 98 Convertible achieved an AACA National First Prize
award in 2014, a testament its quality restoration.To view this car
