| 1962 Olds 98 2-Door
Hardtop in beautiful Cameo Cream with a Provincial White top and a
silver brocade interior; excellent condition N. Carolina car in a lovely
color combination. The original 394 engine and SlimJim
Hydramatic transmission have been replaced with the
best that Oldsmobile has ever produced; a 1971
Olds 455 four barrel engine and its Turbohydramatic 400 automatic
transmission. Starts right up and settles into a smooth idle
with a deep rumble from the chrome tipped dual exhaust. The engine was
rebuilt to factory specs and retains the correct Quadrajet four barrel
carburetor and cast iron intake manifold; runs perfectly on pump gas,
and there are no mechanical issues; no smoke, no leaks, no noises.
Has loads of torque, happily burbles along at highway speeds,
and has incredible acceleration when you floor it. Of course, being a
98, effortless power steering, big power brakes, and a smooth supple
ride. The interior is 100% factory original and in excellent condition. The tri-color silver brocade & vinyl 6-way power seats are exceptionally comfortable and have no wear, no marks, and the power 6-way adjustments work smoothly. Power windows and power vent windows; all operate smoothly and properly. Factory air conditioning; cycles correctly but does not blow cold. Factory signal-seeking WonderBar radio with the pushbutton foot control, factory rear speaker, and factory power antenna; works & plays perfectly and sounds good. Two speed power rear defogger. Automatic headlight dimmer. Neat speedometer in which the needle changes colors as the speed increases; the needle is green from 0-35 mph, changes to orange from 36-65, and changes to red from 66-130. Excellent original door panels, beautiful original dash, excellent steering wheel with no cracks. All gauges work correctly and their chrome bezels and the chrome dash trim is bright & shiny. Excellent original carpets and a new headliner has been installed. Extremely nice, very luxurious interior. Perfect all original body with no dents, no dings, no waves, and I cannot find any body filler or repair panels. Always a southern car (originally Florida then N. Carolina); never rusted or wrecked. Panel fit is factory perfect and has never been apart. Gorgeous paint in correct Cameo Cream with a Provincial White top; done to high standards and a very attractive color combination. Excellent chrome bumpers front & rear. Excellent brightwork and stainless steel trim with no pitting and no discoloration (the tail panel, tail light bezels, front grill, side vents, door handles, dual side mirrors, etc. are all perfect). Excellent glass and all windows operate smoothly. Excellent weatherstripping, window whiskers, and trunk seal. The trunk contains the original trunk mats, original jack assembly, and original spare tire. All four of the headlights are the original T3's. Original steel wheels with the correct deluxe hubcaps and correct whitewall radial tires. Just professionally detailed, polished, hand waxed, and turnkey ready for cruises and shows. Definitely a show quality car; runs & drives perfectly and a pleasure to cruise in. VERY VERY NICE. |
