Description

Read the entire ad, this is a project car

1955 Oldsmobile Starfire Ninety Eight Convertible

Rare car in very straight solid condition needing some restoration
324ci Rocket V8
Hydramatic trans
Power steering, power brakes

This was the top of the line fully loaded Olds for 55, full size like a Cadillac, not to be confused with the lesser 88 model

Fantastic looking cruiser!

Engine is on the button , runs sweet , moves under its own steam, i've just done plugs, cap, rotor and points, new heavy duty battery, front wheel cylinders, anti freeze

Needs some brake work, new exhaust, convertible top replacing and some other minor bits.
Paint, chrome, interior are older/ driver quality with blemishes

High dollar car when restored

I hadnt planned on selling this until it was further along but going into winter with 7 cars something needs to go

Offered at just £26, 950

Chesham, Bucks

50's Cadillac wanted

Prefer coupe or convertible but will consider a nice sedan

May consider a nice Oldsmobile, Buick , Pontiac or a 58/ 59 Chevy Impala,
