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.
This 1957 Oldsmobile Rocket 88 was repainted in a two-tone color theme of Dark Cherry and white. Combining a color with white in such a fashion was quite popular in the Fifties and Sixties, and this four-door sedan pulls it off with perfection. We’re told that the car boasts new lights and new tires as part of its restoration, so it’s ready to be driven on the roads from the moment you take over the keys. The interior of this 1957 Oldsmobile Rocket 88 continues the Dark Cherry and white theme, with front and rear bench seats. It’s not hard to imagine three full-size adults occupying each bench, chatting merrily with each other while going on spirited trips across the country. We’re told that the interior, including the seats, dashboard and carpeting are all new which explains why everything looks so fresh. This car has also received a retro-modern radio which maintains the period look but brings you some modern connectivity avenues. The car may also have air conditioning, as its control panel is visible to the right of the steering column but we’re not informed of its functionality.
This 1957 Oldsmobile Rocket 88 comes with a 371ci Rocket V8 paired with a 3-speed manual gearbox and rear-wheel drive. As we mentioned, the powertrain has been rebuilt and has covered under 1,000 miles since then. We’re also informed that the vehicle has received new brakes, making it safer to drive on a regular basis, which isn’t a hard thing to do given its degree of restoration.

With the oil crisis settling, the American automotive world was slowly springing back into action; the fuel Sipping imports still shared the roads, but the all too familiar big American motors were slowly making their way back into dealership floors and the open highways. The 1975 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale we have today represents a post-fuel crisis America and is here to ensure your weekend is lived up to in style in true 70s fashion. What's better? This big American class act has just a reported 82,100 miles on the clock and comes with extensive service documentation.
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'.
Now here’s a legend of the muscle car scene, the fearsome Oldsmobile 442. Made between 1964 and 1980 as a proper performance machine, it was well-known for decimating nearly all comers at the drag strip. The 442 was potent out of the box, but it could also be tuned with near unlimited scope. Today, those who seek a 442 do so not only for its performative capabilities but its style as well. That’s why we are proud to offer this Torrance-based second-generation 1969 Oldsmobile 442 for sale. With under 107,000 miles, it’s definitely been enjoyed but has so much more to give. Of course when you’ve got a 400ci V8 under the hood and a stick shift to control it with, you don’t want to end journeys too quickly…
Oldsmobile is yet another one of those American automakers who is, sadly, no more. Our country’s storied automotive history is littered with such manufacturers who gave us some truly spectacular machines; yet time and economics were unkind to them. But have you heard of the Oldsmobile Hurst/Olds range? You see, in 1968, Oldsmobile collaborated with renowned aftermarket tuning firm Hurst Performance to create a special line-up of sporty cars. They started with the Cutlass. By 1983, it was time to celebrate 15 years of this amazing partnership, and a line-up of special 15th Anniversary Edition Oldsmobile Hurst/Olds were made. This 1983 Oldsmobile Hurst/Olds 15th Anniversary Edition is one of just 3,001 units made, and comes to you with 14,152 miles. Currently residing in Hiawatha, Iowa, this car packs the iconic Rocket V8 and Lightning Rod transmission combo.
An interesting name for a car – Cutlass. Yes, that’s what Oldsmobile called their compact car offering between 1961 and 1999. In 1964, the Cutlass graduated to the midsize segment, and also dabbled around as a personal luxury car between 1968 and 1988. That’s what we’ve got here, a third-generation 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Convertible from San Antonio, Texas. The third generation saw some major changes, including fresh and more dynamic styling by Stan Wilen, different wheelbases for two and four-door variants, and some nice V8 power. The Cutlass S was the midrange trim, bookended by the F-85 beneath and the Supreme above. Today, this car is a fine way to relive the glorious Sixties of American automobilia, and do so with a machine from a celebrated brand that’s sadly, no more.

One of Chevy’s immediate post-war stalwarts, the Fleetline was a car that was aimed at getting Americans up and about in a post-war world of promise. It was offered in various forms including as a two-door coupe and four-door sedan. With its classic Forties lines, it’s a desirable classic today, but becoming increasingly hard to maintain in period form. That’s why it’s also an ideal restomod platform, as showcased by this California-based 1951 Chevrolet Fleetline Deluxe Restomod. With its 350ci V8, air conditioning and automatic gearbox, this fine Fleetline could be yours if you wish.
Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.
