Vehicle Description
Is this a cool family classic? The best vehicle to haul the other
toys? A great head-turner for an affordable price? The answer to
all of that is "yes." That's because this 1991 Oldsmobile 88 Custom
Cruiser wagon has a sporty upgraded appearance, but the
eight-person interior and fuel-injected V8 remain in place to keep
it exceptionally useful, too.
You're first impression is all that needs to sell you on this Olds.
The metallic copper paint is a great way to highlight the cool
curves of the torpedo-shaped wagons. And we love the look of the
gunmetal gray lower section. Not only are the turbine-style wheels
painted to match, but also it looks great against the tinted glass
- including the Vista Cruiser-style second-row sunroof. Add in the
billet-grille, custom fog light front bumpers, and bright exhaust
tips, and this is one heck of a total package. But more than just
the custom work, there is an enduring appeal to this vehicle
because of its rarity. This generation of the Custom Cruiser wagon
was only in production for two years.
Inside is a great mix of factory luxury with the right upgrades. It
starts with the blue velour cloth seats that have a fold down
center console to give you individual comfort when the middle seat
isn't needed. You get great factory luxuries such as automatic
climate control, power windows, power locks, cruise control, and
anti-lock brakes. Those are joined by great upgrades like the
AM/FM/CD stereo and Grant wood steering wheel. The reverse-facing
third row seat is a great piece we wish we could still get in
wagons today. After all, any noise is facing the other direction.
And since you're likely to put the stickiest of fingers in the "way
back", it's made of easy-clean vinyl. And if you want to fold both
rear rows flat, you've got the perfect machine to securely haul
everything from a weekend's worth of projects, to the ultimate
tailgate package.
Under the hood is a 5.0-liter fuel-injected V8. Oldsmobile borrowed
this powerplant from GM's truck division, which should make you
quite happy. After all, you now have a modern powerplant that has
all the right torque to haul around family, friends, and/or
equipment (that's exactly why there's already a trailer hitch
mounted on the rear.) Add in power steering, front disc brakes, and
a four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly
overdrive, and you really see the utility in a cool ride like
this.
We already know your imagination is running wild with the places
you'll go and the things you can do with this unique wagon. But
since there is only one up for grabs, and it's so affordable, you
might want to hurry up and call today!
