1955 Olds Super Rocket 88 - 2 Door Hardtop - Super Nice Original Car on 2040-cars

1955 Oldsmobile Super Rocket 88

Very nice and original 2 door hardtop.  This is a factory Super Rocket 88 and it still has it's original 324 V8 with Hydramatic transmission.  The Super Rockets came with a factory 4 barrel carb and engine output was 202hp.  This is not a regular '55 Olds, it's quite a special and sought after classic. 

The body is straight and rust free.  Floors, frame, trunk pan and body panels are all clean and solid.  Everything fits good and the chrome/stainless all basically still looks new.  The doors shut easy with just a click and the little door flappers work fine.  Paint is old lacquer that still looks excellent overall and holds a deep shine.  The light mint colored part shows some checking and it has a few small little nicks here and there from driving - but nothing too bad and no bubbling from rust problems popping up.  No worries of what may unexpectantly show up like on a freshly painted car.  The car was restored in the 90's and is still beautiful inside and out.  The interior basically looks new and is very impressive.  All gauges, lights, signals, radio, horn, wipers, etc work as they should.  The wiring is all neat and clean and the gauges were completely restored (faces, wiring and all).  The car runs and drives like a dream.  The drivetrain has been rebuilt and the combination has less than 10k miles on it.  The engine starts right up, runs quiet and smooth with excellent oil pressure, it doesn't overheat, knock, misfire or anything else bad like that.  The Hydramatic transmission shifts crisp.  It comes equipped with power steering which makes the car easy for anyone to drive.  The engine compartment is clean and stock.  It has wide white wall radials and runs down the road straight and smooth with good alignment etc.  It will surprise you how good the old car drives.  New glass and weather stripping when the car was restored.   Even though  it is an older restoration, the car has always been garage kept and still looks great!   Since photos can tell more than I can type, I am posting over 80 detailed pics to show it's condition and features, inside, out, and underneath.         No funny business, clean and clear Kentucky title in my name.         Questions are welcomed - 270-799-8388
