YOU ARE BIDDING ON A STUNNING 1955 OLDSMOBILE SUPER 88 HOLIDAY COUPE WHICH I RESTORED WITH NO EXPENSE SPARED. TAKE IN MIND THAT I RESTORED THIS OLDS TO A HIGH STANDARD BECAUSE IT WAS DONE AS A REPLICA OF MY LATE FATHERS FIRST CAR HE BOUGHT OUT OF THE MILITARY. I WILL TRY TO DESCRIBE MY VEHICLE AS CLEARLY AND PRECISE AS POSSIBLE SO AS TO LIMIT ANY QUESTIONS.
THIS OLDSMOBILE ORIGINALLY CAME FROM NEVADA AND I PURCHASED IT FROM NORTH CAROLINA IN 2011. IT WAS A RUNNING, LL ORIGINAL CAR THAT HAD ABSOLUTELY ZERO ROT OR RUST! I DROVE IT FOR A BIT UNTIL I WAS READY TO RESTORE. I RESEARCHED ALL PARTS, NTERIOR PATTERNS, TC.
EXTERIOR: THE OLDS WAS STRIPPED DOWN TO BARE METAL AND GIVEN A BEAUTIFUL BLACK AND WHITE 2 TONE PAINT JOB WITH 7 COATS OF CLEAR. ALL WORK WAS DONE BY A WELL KNOWN BODY AND PAINT GUY HERE IN NEW YORK. BODY HAS NO PATCH PANELS, LOORS ARE ORIGINAL. CAR IS AS STRAIGHT AS AN ARROW!
CHROME: ALL CHROME AND STAINLESS WAS REMOVED DURING RESTORATION AND SENT OUT FOR RE-CHROMING. IT CAME OUT BEAUTIFUL! ALL STAINLESS WAS SENT OUT TO RESTO TRIM IN LONG ISLAND, HERE THEY TOOK OUT ANY IMPERFECTIONS AND POLISHED. ALL NEW CLIPS AND HARDWARE WAS USED TO REINSTALL.
MECHANICS: SUPER 88'S CAME WITH A 324 ROCKET MOTOR WITH 202HP MATCHED TO A HYDROMATIC TRANSMISSION. ALL WERE REBUILT USING NEW PARTS FROM FUSICK AUTOMOTIVE. THE ROCHESTER 4 JET CARBURETOR WAS REBUILT ALONG WITH JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING ELSE. BRAKES, .O.S REA, EW SHOCKS, USHINGS, EAF SPRINGS, UEL EXHAUST, HE LIST GOES ON. THIS OLDSMOBILE HAS APPROXIMATELY 1500 MILES ON IT SINCE RESTORED. IT ALSO HAS PS, B.
INTERIOR : THIS INTERIOR IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! IT IS AS ORIGINAL AS IT COMES. ALL MATERIALS WERE RESEARCHED AND PURCHASED THROUGH SMS AUTO FABRICS IN OREGON. DOOR PANELS WERE SENT TO SMS DUE TO THEIR HIGH QUALITY OF ORIGINALITY. SEATS WERE HAND STITCHED USING ORIGINAL PATTERNS AND LEATHER UPPER FRONT SEAT BY MOONLIGHT COACHWORKS OF BOHEMIA, Y. SEAT BELTS WERE INSTALLED FOR SAFETY. ALL WEATHERSTRIPPING REPLACED. EVERYTHING WORKS EXCEPT FOR CLOCK.( NEVER BOTHERED ME TO BENCH TEST IT). TRUNKS IS ALSO BEAUTIFULLY DETAILED.
GLASS: FRONT AND REAR GLASS ORIGINAL AND IN BEAUTIFUL SHAPE. SIDE GLASS ALL NEW USING GREEN FACTORY TINTED. ALL NEW FUZZIES INSTALLED.
NEW WIDE WHITEWALL RADIALS WITH FIESTA SPINNER HUBCAPS. UNDERSIDE IS UNDERCOATED BECAUSE I PLANNED ON ENJOYING THIS CAR.
I HAVE OWNED MANY CARS AND THIS OLDS HAS TO BE THE BEST. IT DRIVES AS GOOD AS IT LOOKS. I WOULD NOT HESITATE IN DRIVING THIS CAR CROSS COUNTRY! TEMPERATURE BARELY MOVES!
THIS OLDSMOBILE WAS USED IN ID DISCOVERY SERIES A CRIME TO REMEMBER AND HAS ALSO WON MANY 1ST PLACE TROPHIES IN THE NY/LONG ISLAND AREA.
OVERALL, HAVE PUT A TON OF TIME AND MONEY INTO THIS OLDSMOBILE AND IT SHOWS! THE RESERVE IS NOT NEARLY CLOSE TO WHAT I PUT INTO THIS CAR. BUT AS ANY CAR GUY KNOWS, NOTHER PROJECT ALWAYS COMES ALONG! I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS AND CAN BE REACHED AT 631-300-7827. I ALSO HAVE MANY MORE PICTURES AND TONS OF PAPERWORK. CAR WILL NOT BE RELEASED UNTIL FUNDS CLEAR. I CAN ALSO ASSIST IN SHIPPING. INSPECTIONS ARE ENCOURAGED BY APPOINTMENT. CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY AND I HAVE THE RIGHT TO END AUCTION EARLY. GOOD LUCK!
I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO ADD THAT I HAD POTENTIAL BUYER THAT JUST COULDN'T PULL THE PLUG ON THE SALE. HE ORDERED A FULL INSPECTION ON THE CAR AND WAS NICE ENOUGH TO SEND IT TO ME.(CAN EMAIL UPON REQUEST).INSPECTION WAS JUST DONE JULY 13TH AND CAME BACK PERFECT! (EXCEPT FOR NON WORKING CLOCK AS I STATED. MAY BE FIXED IF I FIND THE TIME). NO HIDDEN SECRETS HERE! I ALSO HAVE ALL RECEIPTS THAT I HAD SENT HIM AND THEY TOTALED OVER $56,000. RESERVE ISN'T NEARLY CLOSE. AS I TOLD POTENTIAL BUYER... DO YOUR HOMEWORK BECAUSE THERE ARE CHEAPER ONES OUT THERE BUT DON'T NEARLY COME CLOSE TO THIS ONE!!
