Vehicle Description
You're looking at a classic with road-owning style, the best
features, and a big SkyRocket V8 under the hood. So this 1963
Oldsmobile 98 convertible is the kind of large and luxurious
boulevard machine that looks absolutely distinct when you take it
out for a Sunday drive.
This car is a truly great American convertible cruiser. It loves to
be a long and outstretched design, and so even the fenders are
extended out on this full-sized Olds. In fact, speaking of the
body, take a moment to appreciate what this one has to offer. The
factory-correct Saddle Mist has a terrific-looking respray that
really let the sunlight highlight the quality of the body panels.
The mirror-like chrome bumpers cleanly contour the imposing lines
of this drop-top. And there are intricate details, like the rear
fender skirts, bright ribbed rockers, factory wheel covers, clean
glass, and a trim line that begins behind the door to crisply
define a hint of tailfin. So this is '60s styling at its best. And
the attraction is more than just beauty, this one is rare.
Oldsmobile only produced about 4300 examples of the Ninety-Eight
convertible in 1963... and how many do you think look this clean
and complete over half a century later?
The beige roof harmonizes nicely with the exterior Saddle Mist, and
the same kind of earthy appeal is seen with the saddle tan
interior. So this is an attractive package with the roof up or
down. This has an attractive style everywhere from the beige
convertible boot to the intricate upholstery on the wide bench
seats. This is a full-size convertible, so there's plenty of room
for family and friends. You can even make some added investment to
restore the retro radio or R134a air conditioning to make this an
even more appealing cruiser for everyone. But you also know the
driver takes proper priority in this cruiser. That's why you have
nice luxury features like a power front seat and a tilt steering
column. And when was the last time you saw a1960s machine with
cruise control? Plus, you know it's a driver-oriented car when the
power windows and power convertible top mean you don't have to
leave the driver's seat to open this one up to the world.
Another reason to love a classic Olds is the way the motors were
done in this era. Oldsmobile seemed to explore the upper end of its
power with robust engines and big displacements. And they also gave
them terrific names. So this one has a 394 cubic-inch SkyRocket V8.
But what you really want to know is how this one glides down the
road like a true big motor luxury car should. Features like the
three-speed automatic transmission, smooth power steering, and
power brakes give this a true effortless '60s cruiser feeling.
The sale comes complete with a car cover, dash cover, folding top
manual, and more. Size, power, luxury, and distinction all come on
this rare Olds drop-top. Call today!!!
