1956 Olds 88 324" Rocket V8 Jetaway Hydromatic 4 Speeds Auto - Complete Restore! on 2040-cars

This auction is for a beautiful newly restored Olds 88 custom cruiser, with a 324 rocket V8 engine that has gone through a complete restoration. This car has had nothing but the best put into it. It has a turn key build. You can jump in and drive across the country with no fears. The tranny is the rare 4-speed jetaway hydromatic that shifts out flawlessly. The engine is equipped with a Edelbrock  4bbl.carb with the Olds/Caddy air cleaner.

Includes:

New distributer with new wires and plugs

Rebuilt wiper motor

Custom 50's rocket valve covers

Complete new brake system with rebuilt treddle-vac (stops smooth and straight)

Power steering

And

Shaved door handles with key remote popper and a exterior safety switch built into the driver's spotlight.

This cruiser has had one repaint back to its original color of island coral and shantung beige. It’s just as beautiful as you can see in the photos. The interior has new vinyl seating with hand stitched headliner using the seating material. There is new carpeting, original door panels, new 15x6 rocket wheels with American classic wide whites, fender skirts, and Smithy's muffler with new exhaust. All stainless and chrome is in excellent condition (inside and out). It has a new fuel sending unit with aftermarket gauge, all other gauges (oil, temp, speedo, amp) are original and work perfect. Mounted tachometer, original auto dimmer, dummy spots, lighted hood ornament, custom auto radio in stock location (no dash cutting), and the modern oil spin-on adapter is installed.

Custom painted traditional fine line pin striping (not too much, just enough). This car is straight and solid with no issues (no rot or patches) no lose wires under the dash.

You will not be disappointed with this beautiful cruiser. I drive this car on long cruises, (weather permitting). It can travel the interstate at 70 mph all day. I have sunk several $$$'s in this build and it shows! This is one beautiful car for one special person.

Be sure and take time to look at all the photos.

I have this car in consignment from a gentleman that I sold a car to in Alabama. He sent me this car to sell for him and I am honoring his wishes. In Alabama, cars from 1975 on down do not have titles, only registrations for the license plates with the official paperwork. With the registration and the paperwork, you can get an actual title in any of the other 49 states. This is Alabama’s state law. I will supply all paperwork required for your new title. I am selling this car as-is, with no warranty, which means that the buyer is responsible for the vehicle that they are purchasing.

This is a 7-day auction, which gives any potential lookers or bidders an opportunity to come out, see the vehicle and drive it or send from the local area a qualified mechanic to come and inspect this car. Once the auction is over, the winner has 48 hours to pay for the car by cash or wire transfer. If the car is not paid for in that amount of time, I will offer it to the runner-up bidder. I will not pay for any shipping but I would be glad to assist your shipper for the pickup of this vehicle.

I would like the vehicle picked up within a 7 day period because I have no room to keep the car and I don’t want to be responsible for somebody else’s vehicle. I’m sure that you would want to have the vehicle as soon as possible to drive and enjoy it, because it is a beautiful car. If car is not picked up in 7 days there is a 15.00 charge every day after till car is gone. I also would like to add that the miles on the car are believed to be original. If any potential buyers would come and see and drive this car, it drives nicer than you think it would based on this ad, and the body and interior must seen in person to be appreciated. The floors and frame underneath this car are as solid as the days are long.

This is a rare, hard-to-find car in this beautiful condition. I hope you will appreciate it as much as the gentleman who presently owns the car does. If you have any questions about the car or about making the transaction or about how the title will transfer in your state, please call Lou Davis at 216-210-8488. I would be happy to give you any additional information that you would need. If you can, please call rather than e-mail or eBay Message. This way, you can get an answer quickly, whereas my email may not be checked every day.

Thank you for looking, and good luck bidding!
