1963 Oldsmobile Starfire Base 6.5l on 2040-cars

Hello!

Video of the beauty! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duOQCFQZCow&list=UU_nqJFlFjcbuxz1Lv25bBHQ

I have a beautiful driving project 1963 Oldsmobile Starfire coupe, Golf Course/Barn find! Thats right, this car was located by Aspen Lakes in Central Oregon, where it was parked around 1971. The original motor was removed with nothing less than a torch and crane. Trunk lid and hood where no-where to be found. Luckily, I happen to have found several parts cars and have the vehicle complete except for the rear center trunk emblem.

Here is the story of this beautiful car!

I was 13 years old, playing with my friend on his family farm and I had an addiction for old project cars! I was given the car, and had to hunt down all the lost pieces, I purchased a parts car 1963 Olds 88 4-door, and used the front clip, trunk lid, and any other parts that would interchange to give this Starfire the best it could get! I also purchased a 1963 Olds Starfire Convertible (1 of 4800ish), that car had a completely new drivetrain in it! I simply swapped the engine, transmission, brakes, gas tank, driveline, rear-end, and basically anything that made the car move to save money on rebuilding everything. That is how I put $11k into this car. I drove the car around for a little while working out the kinks, like lengthening the driveline to not rattle, rebuild the transmission, and fine tune it to the 394. It has been a great car, and you can either enjoy it as a luxury car, but it is a true sleeper! I own seven cars, and this one is the most dependable, starts immediately on the first click, which you can see in the video I have a link for below.

Thats basically it, I have spent a lot of money and time in this car, but I have no need for the car anymore.

Before you turn away start paying attention! There is $11k wrapped up in this car!

Rebuilt 394 Olds V8 6.5L with 345 HP stock! There was 200> miles put on by the previous owner, and I have only driven this motor around 1800 miles. I ONLY RUN CLEAR PREMIUM! By running the highest octane fuel in the old cars, you preserve the lifters, valve seats, and overall engine! There is 3/4 tank of gas already in it, $4.68/gallon last time I filled it.

4Brl Rochester Carburetor, professionally rebuilt by Don Monroe.

Here's the cherry on top! If you are familiar with these cars you understand how crappy and unreliable the stock roto-Hydramatic 3spd transmissions are in these cars. LUCKILY! This car has been through a "Counting Cars" overall and has a 4spd Auto 700r4 out of a 1980's style Camaro/Vette. Increases the horsepower and the MPG! But don't worry purist's, the shifter has not been modified at all, either has the engine! The bell-housing of the 700r4 is cut and an adapter plate is welded on, along with a torque converter special to these cars, and for the shifter, only the rod that moves the shifter was lenghtened! Completely stock on the inside of the car, even the Neutral Safety switch, and reverse lights work! A custom driveline was also made at New-House co. in Redmond Oregon.

Original Posi-Rear-end!

Rebuilt Radiator and stock hoses!

New headlights and all bulbs.

the entire front end on this car has been taken apart, sand-blasted and repainted. Then put together to create the beautiful front clip.

Entirely new brakes, pads, lines, and booster (This was bout 15 years ago but the car has only had 2000 miles on it since everything was rebuilt.

Working tachometer, spent $145 on ebay for it

NEW dual exhaust, 2 1/2" piping, with dual Blue-Streak Glass Packs, (Magna-Flow and Flowmaster are the economy version of Blue-Streak). The Glass packs are barely broke in, this car has a beautiful rumble, not obnoxious, absolutely beautiful. (NOS heat-riser installed on the Driver side)

New Wheels and tires, spent $650 in 2013 to get those replaced, I got the 40,000 mile 1" white wall strip 225/70/R14, the stock 225/75/R14 tires were $985 and extremely hard to find, so I went with some shorter tires, and it gives the car an amazing stance.

Minor rust in the trunk floor, and driver front floor, but dont worry! Since I have parts cars, I have the replacement panels cut out to size to fit in perfectly!

Title: With DMV it is a clean title, and since I got the car from my friends, and they were the last owners on the title it will be super easy for a title recovery, I am in the progress of one, but understand that they are slow but do work! 541-678-0606 - Call w/ questions/progress.

All original interior, and I do have absolutely EVERY part for this car whether it is shown in the pictures or not.

Power antenna, power trunk, even though most of the trunk stuff has been removed for some reason?

I was trying to get $6k out of this car locally for the longest time, if I can get over $6k I will donate all extra to the Good Samaritan Ministries located in Portland Oregon, to support their outreach to Masaka, Uganda schools.
