This 1962 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 Holiday hardtop coupe represents an
interesting era in all the best ways. GM's rocket division was
still holding on to a hint of tailfin, and this full-size car
carried a larger V8 than the 4-4-2 that was on the horizon. So when
this history is nicely present on an affordable classic with plenty
of great features, we know there are plenty of folks who take
notice.
The Dynamic name seems to fit this coupe well as it carries some
exceptionally interesting sheet metal. The 1962 facelift has
impressive creases down the side with a bright jet-inspired trim in
the middle. And the reason why you can see details like that is
because this coupe has been carefully kept correct, right down to
the fender skirts and badges. This is a full-size American classic,
so that means it has plenty of chrome. It's best seen at each end
of the car where Olds proved that it was the best at integrating
bumpers into the overall design. These combine with the distinct
grille and trim for a great vintage style. But more than just
classic, this one likes to be a true cruiser. You see it in the
driver-quality and driver-ready total impression. And there are
even cool cruiser details, like the half-chrome headlights,
blue-dot tail lights, and bright dual exhaust tips.
Plastic seat covers mean the classic triple-tone green upholstery
is quite well preserved inside. Even the entrance rails on the
carpeting are well protected. So you can tell there was some added
care with this coupe. It lets you appreciate all the classic
details, including the jet-age steering wheel and working dome
lights. Just like the exterior, this has the right touches to make
for a better cruiser. So while the original AM radio is still there
for a display, your real driving music comes from an upgraded
AM/FM/CD stereo. And you have an air conditioning system running
modern R134a refrigerant (it may need a recharge to blow ideally
cold again.) It's all part of an idea that this full-size Olds is
perfect for getting all your enthusiast friends together, rolling
down all the windows on this pillarless hardtop, and going for a
weekend drive.
This Dynamic 88 is powered by a 394 cubic-inch V8, and it looks
correct right down to the valve covers and Rocket air topper.
Thanks to their legendary durable construction, Oldsmobile engines
of this vintage are known for their reliability and longevity. But
more than just durability, it provides the right torque to smoothly
move this sizable coupe. This is a luxurious Olds, and so the
driving experience is meant to be an easy one. That's why it comes
with features like the three-speed automatic transmission, power
steering, and power brakes.
You don't see too many Oldsmobiles like this anymore, and when it's
offered at an affordable price, your opportunity at something this
distinctive won't last long. Call today!!!
