During the late 50s and early 60's, America was fascinated with the
space race; and what things would look like in the future as new
technologies and new designs were on a rapid pace. The American
automotive manufacturers picked up on this concept and futuristic
designs and nameplates began showing up on their cars. The cars
were lower, and sleeker, with interiors with shapely gauges to
mimic aerospace cockpits, long rear fenders with taillights
designed to resemble rockets or jet engines, etc. Vehicles like the
Olds Starfire were designed and marketed in this theme. They were
big, they were beautiful, they drove smoothly and they gave the
American public a peak towards the future.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this ultra-sleek, 1962
Oldsmobile Starfire Convertible for consideration. The car is
powered by its "ultra-high compression" Starfire 394 cid V8 that
from the factory produced a healthy 345 horsepower and a
face-ripping 440 ft lbs of torque. This power is transferred via
its silky smooth Hydra-Matic automatic transmission and applied to
the rear wheels. The Starfire was a premium line of Olds and
typically came loaded with options and creature comforts. The car
offered here remains highly original with the exception of an older
repaint. At 45,841 miles, this Starfire remains in wonderful
overall condition and possesses great drivability. Highlights
include: Power steering, power brakes, power windows, power
antenna, bucket seats, console with automatic shifter,
console-mounted tachometer, factory futuristic steering wheel, dual
spotlights, clock, etc. The exterior features original trim and
chrome, the Starfire signature satin-smooth aluminum accent that
runs the entire length of the car, fender skirts, wheel covers,
etc.
Price does not include applicable tax, title, license, processing
and/or $199 documentation fees.
