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.

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.

Perhaps some of you may not be as familiar with the Oldsmobile brand as much as you are with Corvettes and Mustangs. So let's go over some history! Oldsmobile was an American automobile company that was initially established back in 1897. It produced over 35 million vehicles throughout its lifetime, and its flagship model was the Oldsmobile 98. This full-size car was manufactured until 1996 and had the most technologically advanced items available at the time. This well-kept example of the 1964 Oldsmobile 98 comes to you with just 68,449 miles on its clock, a very good mileage for a car of its age. It is currently located in Cheney, Washington, waiting for its next owner.
An Oldsmobile Cutlass is an interesting choice of classic car if you want to stray away from the more popular brands. Oldsmobile was a division of General Motors that dated back to 1987. The General bought it 1908. Sadly, Oldsmobile ceased to be in 2004, making its cars even more intriguing and desirable for those who want to own something that isn’t available anymore. Today, we’ve got a 1964 Oldsmobile Cutlass for sale in Redmond, Oregon. The Cutlass was named after a fighter jet as well as a swashbuckling sword, and was produced across six generations from 1961 to 1999. This second-generation car includes the original owner’s manual and approximately $45,000 worth of receipts, showing that it’s been well-cared for.
Oldsmobile is a brand that the current generation won’t know much about because it was defunct by 2004. A division of General Motors, the company itself dates back to 1987, which tells you that it’s pretty historically significant towards American automotive culture as a whole. In the ʼ60s and ʼ70s, Oldsmobile was right up there with the rest, making muscle cars, personal luxury cars, full-size cars and everything else that Americans wanted, save for SUVs and pickup trucks. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme for sale from Saint Paul, Indiana. The Cutlass represented the brand’s compact car for a brief period before switching to the midsize segment in 1963, where it remained for several generations. So, this car is a great way to teach your kids some automotive history, as well as give them something that is not only a lovely car to cherish, but also a smart investment for the future.
You can’t go amiss by choosing a first-generation Ford Mustang as your starter classic car. Ford’s signature model created the whole pony car arena, and over sixty years later, remains the sole survivor of the segment. The first generation Mustang was offered between 1964 (called 1964½ models) and 1973. Along the way, it offered various engines and came in some high-performance variants too. Buyers could choose three body styles, and many went for the stylish fastback or the slick convertible. But, the third choice, the two-door hardtop offered sleek and arguably unappreciated style that really made owning one a personal choice of distinction. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Ford Mustang Hardtop for sale in Goodyear, Arizona. With its host of upgrades, this is a classic car that’s suitable for daily driving if desired. Snap it up soon!
