The Olds' Eighty-Eight was the marque's full-size car, and it ran and ran. From 1949 to 1999, in fact, across ten generations. From its inception, the Oldsmobile 88 was also a strong contender in NASCAR. This 1955 Oldsmobile 88 2-Door Coupe hails from the second generation of the nameplate. The second generation saw a longer wheelbase and was offered as a 2-door coupe, 2-door Holiday hardtop, 4-door Holiday hardtop, 4-door sedan, and a 4-door station wagon. With just 85,000 miles on the clock, this car is also a restomod. Let's dive into the details and see why you should seriously consider this Olds'.
Sporting a reportedly three-year-old red paint job, this 1955 Oldsmobile 88 2-Door Coupe looks fresh and neat with its contrasting white roof, chrome bumpers, and rolls on tires that are reportedly just two years old. The first hints of restomod are the ride height which has been lowered by 4 inches. Inside, you'll find a lovely period beige interior with two bench seats that sport lap belts. The current owner reports that all the dash gauges were rebuilt and are functional. While there's no AC or radio, there's nothing to stop you from installing them by yourself. In the meantime, you can appreciate the lovely art-deco style details on the dash, including the chrome embellishing. Cast your eyes downwards, and you'll see an aftermarket console with two cupholders. The current owner also tells us that the car was recarpeted at the time of purchase.
Under the skin of this 1955 Oldsmobile 88 2-Door Coupe is where you'll find the most enhancements. For starters, there's a 327ci V8 from a Z28 with a 4-bolt main that should offer a healthy power increase over the stock 324ci V8 that the car originally came with. This enhanced engine also sports an Edelbrock air cleaner and Edelbrock headers and drives the rear wheels via a Turbo 400 automatic transmission. There's a new wiring harness, power steering, and power brakes as well. Finally, the current owner reports the suspension has been rebuilt as well, resulting in a car that's bound to give you years of thrilling yet trouble-free driving.
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.

Oldsmobile introduced the Toronado in 1965 as their personal luxury car contender. What made the Toronado most distinctive was not its styling or land yacht proportions, but the fact that it was front-wheel drive! Yes, this was probably one of a handful of V8 front-wheel drive cars around at the time. What a curious decision by General Motors, and you can discover their curio right here with this 20,197-mile 1985 Oldsmobile Toronado Brougham that we’ve got for sale. Currently relaxing in Grand Prairie, Texas, this all-original restored car awaits a new owner, which might very well be you, dear reader!
The Oldsmobile Cutlass was a car that was made by this now-defunct American brand between 1961 and 1999. The Cutlass saw the light of day as a compact car in 1961, where it remained for just three model years. Then, it moved to the midsize segment until 1981. That’s where this third-generation 1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass 442 Tribute comes from. With 82,754 miles to its name, this car is styled to resemble the iconic 442 muscle car option package that was available for the Cutlass. Why not make this car your first or next classic, then? It’s largely original, with a few enhancements here and there.
One of the smartest classic cars to own and drive on a regular basis has got to be a Mercedes-Benz SL from the R107 generation of 1971 to 1989. These cars were Hollywood darlings when they were new, and over 300,000 were sold worldwide. It’s estimated that 68% of these ended up in the United States, as official or gray market imports. That’s why getting your hands on one isn’t that hard. This Florida-based 1975 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is one great example. The car has got 86,100 miles under its belt, and has received some new components to keep it driving as sweetly as it did back when it was new.
