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.

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.
Oldsmobile…a name that’s not been around for some time now. Yet, this iconic American automaker created one of the most recognizable muscle cars in the Sixties, the 442. Initially, 442 was an option package for the Cutlass and F-85. However, by 1968, Oldsmobile acknowledged that the 442 had earned the right to become a separate model. And it did. Here’s an example of proof. Behold, we’ve got a first-generation 1969 Oldsmobile 442 for sale, in all its golden glory, just waiting for its next lucky owner. Coming to you with all maintenance reportedly up to date, this is a time capsule that can still roar down the street in anger, thanks to its potent, unbridled V8 engine.
The Mercedes-Benz R107-generation SL is undoubtedly one of the most beloved and popular models that the Three-Pointed Star has ever made. Produced for 18 years, this era of SL is the second-longest generation Mercedes has ever made, second only to the equally iconic G-Wagen. And it’s not hard to see why: timeless looks coupled with incredible performance and luxury cemented it as one of the best roadsters money could buy. Our featured car is a 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL, featuring a large-displacement V8 under the hood. This car is located in Frisco, Texas, and has a reported over 141,000 miles on the clock.
The Catalina nameplate in Pontiac nomenclature initially represented a top-level trim for the existing Chieftain Eight and DeLuxe Eight models. However, as we’ve seen many times before with American manufacturers, trim levels have been spun off as separate models. For the Catalina, this happened in 1959, offered as a two-door coupe, convertible, four-door sedan and station wagon. Today, the Catalina may not be at the top of every classic car collector’s list because not everyone remembers it, but it’s definitely an appealing choice for someone who wants to diverge from the crowd. This particular 1964 Pontiac Catalina is a four-door sedan hailing from Ballston Spa, New York, and comes with the original spare tire plus original bill of sale and even the original manual. Having traveled 77,421 miles so far, it’s ready for a new owner who will look after it and cherish it as it deserves. If that’s you, get in touch with us ASAP.
When people say “Classic Corvette”, the image of the second generation immediately springs to mind. Made between 1963 and 1967, this was the generation where the famed Stingray badge came to be, plus pop-up headlamps, the boat-tail rear, the twin-cowled dashboard, and many other signature Corvette features. Today, we’ve got a 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible from Hudson, Florida for your consideration. This car has got some new parts on it, making it a fine driving classic and a car that can be used on a regular basis too. Because let’s face it, why would you buy a classic Corvette if you don’t want to take it out on the roads?
