Vehicle Description
The largest 1962 Oldsmobiles were again the Ninety-Eights. Five
body styles were offered including three 4-doors plus an open and a
closed 2-door. The Holiday Coupe was renamed the Holiday Sport
Coupe, and the Sport Sedan was renamed the Holiday Sport Sedan, so
once again, at least temporarily, all hardtops were called
Holidays. Ninety-Eights were well appointed with standard equipment
including padded dash, guard beam frame, live rubber body cushions,
coil springs, foam rubber seats, two-speed windshield wipers,
parking brake lights, courtesy lamp package, special moldings, Roto
Hydramatic, power brakes, power steering, power windows and power
seat. Interiors were leather, vinyl or cloth. Standard tire size
was 8.50 x 14 inches.
The most upscale Oldsmobiles were the Ninety-Eights. A five-model
lineup was available with three four-doors and an open and closed
two-door. The senior car received some significant styling changes
including a new grille of thin vertical bars with "Nighty-Eight" in
script on the driver's side along with a stylized "Rocket" logo.
The front fender edges jutted ahead of the grille, and the entire
fascia was surrounded with a bright metal molding.
On the sides the previous bright metal strip still ran front to
back, but now above the beltline just under the door handle. At the
front edge of the door, grilles simulating "intakes" ran for about
1" horizontally. "Ninety-Eight" appeared in the lower front fender
just aft of the wheel well. "Oldsmobile" in block letters was
placed at the back of the rear fender at the beltline.
At the rear, the four oval tail lights were placed at the outer
edge of the trunk, and a wide chrome strip connected them.
"Ninety-Eight" in script was placed in the upper right corner of
the trunk edge. The rear bumper became massive and contained the
backup lights.
