With its upgraded big fuel-injected V8, single-year paint, full
custom interior, and adjustable air ride suspension, this 1961
Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 Holiday Coupe is the full custom build that
no one expected. And once they see it, they'll never forget.
This coupe is striking from every angle. It was the debut year for
a sleeker Olds design, and that's been taken one step further any
time you decide to let the upgraded air ride suspension really hug
the round. In fact, this whole car is a great place to start a
custom build. The front end has a wide enough stance to space out
the Oldsmobile lettering, the headlights have their own individual
pods, and electric shaver style grille has a hint of the Willys
coupe vibe. In the rear, the taillights have a cool jet-inspired
look, and the bright chrome bumper hugs the shapely form. And the
whole car looks fast just standing still thanks to the torpedo-like
profile. You can tell they paid attention to bodywork when they
were investing in this Olds, and we're especially happy to see a
good respray of the factory-correct Twilight Mist. It was a color
only available in 1961, and so this unique coupe has unique
paint.
The white and gray two-tone interior has an awesome custom and
clean look. So we know you'll want to roll down all the windows on
this pillarless Holiday hardtop just so people can get a better
look. Custom buckets match the rear seats and door panels. Even the
center console, carpeting, headliner, and dash are all part of the
total coordinated presentation. There are some terrific upgrades,
like the B&M shifter and full auxiliary gauge package that make
this a better driver. And the radio keeps everyone entertained with
an AM/FM/CD/XM touchscreen unit that features Bluetooth and full
custom sound system. Plus, there's a remote for the air ride
controls so you can dial-in the ideal stance without leaving the
driver's seat. Even with all these upgrades, this still has the
nice vintage feeling that comes from the thin/grippy dual-spoke
Olds wheel and gazing at the artfully stylish dash.
The motor has been upgraded to the best Olds had to offer: the
mighty 455 cubic-inch V8. This has the clean and tidy appearance
like this big powerhouse belonged here since day one. But when you
look closer, you also see another terrific upgrade. The Atomic
electronic fuel injection system is great for upgrading the
performance and consistency. There's even an upgraded aluminum
radiator to help keep this updated system running its best. It
fires up readily as the wrapped headers add power and rumble to the
X-pipe dual exhaust. The three-speed automatic transmission, power
steering, power brakes, newer bushings, and modern tires afforded
by the wheel upgrade all make for a solid cruising package. And
don't forget that the air suspension can also be dialed-in for
added comfort, too.
This is the fully-built custom that will not only make you go
"WOW!" but also everyone else at the car show will, too. It's hard
to believe such a unique and rare coupe is available at such an
obtainable price. Call today!!!
