Restored 1954 Oldsmobile Super 88 for sale. A 4-door saloon with the original but larger 5309 cc V8 engine with 170hp (127kW). The car was completely repainted and had new leather fitted (seats, door panels, dashboard, headliner, all new, as you can see in the photos); the engine and carburettor have also been re-adjusted, which you notice straight away when you start-up. This vehicle has a 3-speed automatic transmission, which shifts cleanly. The seats, door panels and headliner are new and undamaged and in an immaculate condition. It still has both working sun visors, even the mirror is still there. New seatbelts were fitted to both seats at a later date. Everything in this vehicle works except for the clock. The headlights and indicators have already been converted to EU standards (H4, lights and yellow indicators). This vehicle comes from California, has only had 3 owners, and only has 79,646 miles on the clock, it has always been kept in a garage and has no rust and only a little patina. Definitely no corrosion, the underbody is also very clean and free of rust, as can be clearly seen in the photos. All of the windows work fine, even the vent windows can be wound down, no glass or pane is broken. This vehicle was restored by the previous owner to a good standard and was seldom driven.
