Cruising across the southeast since 1987, this 1948 Oldsmobile
Series 76 showcases a striking red and black color combination that
accentuates its classic body lines. The four-door sedan profile
presents clean, flowing curves characteristic of post-war American
automotive design. Chrome and brightwork remain in excellent
condition, complementing the driver-quality paint job completed in
the early 2000s. The stance is enhanced by 15" wheels wrapped in
235/75R15 tires that fill out the wheel wells perfectly. Glass
remains clear and free from issues, while the lights maintain their
original clarity.
Stepping inside reveals an Antelope vinyl interior that maintains
period-correct styling with modern comfort. The bench seats provide
ample room for passengers and show minimal wear considering their
age. A functional center console adds convenience without
compromising the vintage aesthetic. The dashboard displays good
gauge clarity for easy monitoring of vital statistics. The
column-mounted shifter operates the transmission with precision. An
AM/FM cassette player provides entertainment during long drives,
while the added air conditioning keeps passengers comfortable
regardless of outside temperature.
Powering this classic is a 283 cubic inch V8 engine mated to a
smooth-shifting TH350 three-speed automatic transmission. The
combination delivers reliable performance with a single two-barrel
Quadrajet carburetor handling fuel delivery. Suspension consists of
coil springs up front and trailing arms with coil springs in the
rear, supplemented by an added sway bar for improved handling. The
rear end comes from a 1990 Oldsmobile 98 with 3.48 gearing for
confident highway cruising. Drum brakes at all four corners with a
new master cylinder provide stopping power, while the single
exhaust offers a subtle exhaust note.
