Oldsmobile’s flagship full-size offering, the 88 soldiered on from 1949 until 1999, across ten generations. It was popularly considered to be a fine family car, and that’s likely where this 1950 Oldsmobile 88 Sedan began life seventy six years ago. The car comes to you with a suitably Fifties black suit, a nice white interior and a healthy 70,041 miles on the odometer. It’s got the famous Rocket V8 under the hood, hooked up to a 4-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission! Yes, a four-speeder in 1950, how lavish. So if you’d like to cruise around in a car from the Fifties and see what driving was like way back then, this car is up for grabs in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Exterior and Interior
Wearing whitewall tires on steel wheels with chrome hubcaps, this black 1950 Oldsmobile 88 Sedan is every bit the Fifties family car you’d expect it to be. It’s got generous helpings of chrome because chrome on your car meant that you were making it back then. The bumpers are coated in the shiny stuff, as well as the headlamp surrounds, window frames and other trim elements. The car also features semi faired-in rear wheels for a sleek look – once again a very Fifties thing. The white cloth interior of this 1950 Oldsmobile 88 Sedan features two bench seats but that’s not the most striking thing you’ll find upon opening the doors. No, that’s got to be the dashboard, particularly the gauge cluster! The main gauges are arranged in a semicircular pod around the speedometer, with several knobs and pulls on the sides. These operate systems such as the heating and ventilation, windshield wipers and lights. You’ve also got a push-button radio in the center of the dashboard. Looking downwards, we see an aftermarket USB and 12-volt power socket duo have been installed.
Engine
This 1950 Oldsmobile 88 Sedan packs the reported 135-horsepower 303ci Rocket V8 under the hood. The engine breathes via a 2-barrel carburetor. It sends power to the rear axle via a 4-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. Curiously, the manual transmission option for the first-generation 88 had fewer gears, with just three! No surprise, then, why many opted for the easy-driving auto.

Oldsmobile was one of General Motors’ well-known brands, until it was retired in 2004. One of the brand’s most prolific models was the 88 full-size car. Produced across ten generations from 1949 to 1999. In 1957, the third generation debuted, and had a few variants. One of these was the Rocket, which represented the base model. Moving up, one could find the Dynamic 88 and Super 88, but exterior badging on these variants was limited to merely ‘88’. Today, we’ve got a meticulously-restored 1957 Oldsmobile Rocket 88 for sale in Whittier, California. The car comes with a rebuilt engine and gearbox that have reportedly got under 1,000 miles on them.
