1964 Oldsmobile Jetstar 88 in Youngville, North Carolina

This is believed to be the only 315 HP high performance 4 speed Jet Star 88 built in 1964. It was ordered from the factory nearing the end of the 1964 production year for the sole purpose of placing a special order for the new 1965 Jet Star 88 only UG code high performance 315 HP engine that was not available in 1964. The highest hp in 1964 was the TG code 290 hp engine. This increase of 25 hp was the goal of this special order. CHEVY CALLED THESE COPO ORDERS. This is a 1 of a kind car and this is the only known and documented example. This beauty has just 35,254 actual miles. It has been confirmed by the General Motors Heritage Center as having come from the factory with the new 1965 only 315 hp UG code high performance engine before it was available to the general public for the 1965 model year. Olds only offered 4 speeds in the full sized cars for 3 years 1964-65-66. Extensive research including the original 1964 and 65 Olds factory options lists and dealer brochures. The original Olds factory engine identification charts obtained from the General Motors Historical Archives and many more references shows there were no 1964 UG code 315 HP cars made. This is an extremely rare highly documented car.
