There's a fun spirit with some restomods that love to deliver a
nearly stock-looking vehicle but then they can't help but add an
element of serious flair just to let everyone know it's
extra-special. And we bet you can immediately pick up on this 1950
Oldsmobile 88 Station Wagon's burning secret. The flame-kissed
style is just the beginning for a full custom build that gives you
fuel-injected V8 power, an overdrive transmission, upgraded
suspension, and a luxury all-bucket seat interior. But more than
just an awesome upgraded cruiser, we like this one for its
exceptional rarity. Station wagons were often one of the most
expensive models in a lineup, and so there were less than 2400
examples made in 1950. So it's going to be more than just the power
sunroof that wows them with this Olds.
