Visually, this 1969 Oldsmobile 98 Convertible is a true American icon, with undeniable, explicit, classic car traits. The exterior is coated in a unique shade of blue, while the cabin and vinyl convertible roof are beautifully specced in white. Belonging to the latter end of the eighth generation Oldsmobile 98, this car is distinguished by its split front grille design. With a wheelbase of 127 inches, the 98 was the largest car produced by the brand, back in 1969. Standard interior features of the 1969 Oldsmobile 98 Convertible include a powered seat adjuster, a deluxe steering wheel, power windows, and a custom foam padded front sports seat. Many of these now-common features were flagship-exclusive amenities of the time. On top of all that, this car has been outfitted with a new Kenwood Bluetooth audio system.
This 1969 Oldsmobile 98 Convertible has been endowed with the most number of upgrades on the powertrain front. It is powered by a high-displacement 455 cu 7.5-liter V8 engine, dubbed “Super Rocket” which is capable of outputting 365 horsepower in its stock configuration. This motor comes mated to a 3-speed “Turbo Hydramatic” torque converter automatic transmission. This particular car, however, is far from stock.

Oldsmobile might not be the most talked about auto brand right now, but the company was responsible for quite a few groundbreaking achievements in the automobile world. They were the first car maker to mass produce a gasoline-engine-powered vehicle and were pioneers in the American automotive scene. One of their greatest achievements, the Oldsmobile 98, was their top-of-the-line vehicle, and the car saw twelve generations before it finally retired. This 10th generation Oldsmobile 98 is of the Regency model, a premium trim of the vehicle, and is currently up for sale.

The second-generation Chevrolet Corvette (C2) is where the legendary Corvette inherited its sharp lines and looks that are still used to this day. This new design over the first-generation Corvette did not only present itself with a spectacular view but also newfound handling prowess. The new lighter body meant this convertible found more acceleration than its predecessor, even though the power remained the same and the new suspension significantly improved handling. All the 1963 cars came out with 372 ci engines, making 250 horsepower as standard, with optional variants like this particular restored model we have for you today, which can produce a whopping 340 horsepower. All this excitement for the second-generation Corvette resulted in an increase of 50% in units built compared to the then-record-setting 1962 version. This made the C2 an automotive icon of the past and present. We’re told that this 1963 convertible American beauty, for sale in Rosamond, California, has only done less than 1000 miles on the odometer after restoration. The current owner also reports that the numbers are matching for the motor and transmission, however documentation cannot be provided.
The Chevrolet Impala has played the role of the Bowtie’s flagship full-size car for years. Produced over ten generations, the Impala was first introduced in 1957. Named after the eponymous African antelope, the first generation was strictly a two-door affair. Buyers could choose a coupe or convertible. If you’d like to own a classic Impala but with a bit more pep up and go, this 1958 Chevrolet Impala is a worthy contender. The car comes with an upgraded engine, but remains otherwise stock as far as possible. That makes it a lovely classic car to own and drive, but something to surprise other classics with when the mood strikes.
One of the most popular classic cars is the Chevy Bel Air. Introduced in 1950 and named after the stylish Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles, the Bel Air was Chevy’s full-size offering until 1981. Today, the Bel Air has proved itself to be a worthy classic, as well as an excellent restomod platform. Take this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Coupe Restomod as a prime example. The car has undergone a full restoration, which was concluded in December 2020. Moreover, it’s got a more potent engine with just 4,000 miles on it, plus some interior and exterior niceties.
