Vehicle Description
This 1990 Oldsmobile 88 Custom Cruiser Wagon is a fun find. It's a
terrific survivor that reminds you of long family trips. And the
soft velour interior, loaded features, and V8 power are all there
to make sure this lives up to your nostalgia.
There's a whole new appreciation for the squared-off lines of this
generation of Oldsmobiles. Today, they have matured into an elegant
style. And this wagon has nice details, like the Olds wire hubcaps,
a luggage rack, and of course, plenty of wood veneer paneling. The
finish and many details are far from perfect, but it's what you
want on a wagon like this. Some people just love this kind of
originality that looks like it has spent decades making runs
in-between school and baseball practice. Others will see the car's
completeness as the right base to fulfill a personal project. If
this reminds you of the wagon of your childhood, you probably want
to change it to that color, right? Or maybe you're going to give it
the sleek metallic for your restomod project. And if you're looking
to have a sleeper-style grocery-getter, we bet the current
imperfect (and likely original) finish is absolutely perfect. The
options are almost endless when this wagon's value price leaves
plenty of room in your budget for whatever plans you have.
This Oldsmobile is particularly impressive for the level of
features inside. A tilt steering column and a fold-down armrest
make sure this wagon knows how to get long-haul comfortable. This
premium Olds has plenty of features that weren't on the average
family wagon, like a power front seat, power windows, power locks,
and air conditioning. You may need to service/recharge some of
these features to return an ideal operation, but it's all about how
opulent you want your classic Olds to be. There are three rows all
done in a blue velour that looks good without being too fancy to
let everyone pile in on a whim. And both back rows can all be
folded flat for utility. So it's perfect for loading up with
supplies and spending the day showing it off at the car show. And
don't forget, the tailgate is a two-position piece that opens to
the side to let people in or it folds down for true tailgating.
There's even a trailer hitch with wiring and a trailer brake so you
can take even more of the fun with you.
Under the hood is a 350 cubic-inch V8 with a four-barrel carburetor
on top. So we know some are already dreaming of taking this hardy
small block and adding some easy performance upgrades to create a
terrific sleeper-style grocery-getter. But there's also just
something alluring about the honest package with a torque-filled V8
that's already ready to cruise. So this Olds remains an appealing
family wagon. It even has a four-speed automatic transmission with
highway-ready overdrive for those long road trips. Plus, power
steering, power brakes, front discs, and cruiser control give you
the potential for even a highway-friendly classic.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and service manual.
This is family-style nostalgia with plenty of potential and
all-around appeal. Call today!!!
