1958 Oldsmobile 88

Cruisin Classics is proud to present to you today this gorgeous 1958 Oldsmobile Super 88. This Oldsmobile has unmistakable styling that will turn heads everywhere and enough chrome to make a 57 BelAir or 59 Cadillac blush with envy! The body of this big beauty is dressed in deep glossy red paint with a white top and rear quarter accents all in high driver-level condition. Bright trim begins up front with a large chrome Rocket hood ornament that is flanked by dual side-by-side headlights set in chrome bezels that wrap around the sides onto the fenders, forming a spear that extends most of the way down the doors. The center of the spears feature Super 88 badging the only badging to be found on the car. Beneath the headlights and hood rocket is a chrome framed horizontal bar grille and an enormous mirror-finish chrome bumper with integrated turn indicator lights. Originally, the grill would have had an Oldsmobile crest badge at the center but it has since been deleted. Also removed are the OLDSMOBILE block letters that would have graced the front lip of the hood when new. Thick pieces of chrome trim border the wrap-around windshield and just ahead of it youll find chrome air vents on either side and bright wiper arms. Chrome trim continues on from the windshield to frame all of the windows and provide an accent as the roof slopes down to the C-pillars. The upper body line of the car takes a sweetheart dip at the rear of the doors then curves back upward with a chrome rail that continues all of the way down the rear fins to the insanely cool rocket tip tunnel tail-lamps. Oldsmobile took these already over-the-top taillight assemblies to a whole different level by using the one on the drivers side to conceal the gas fill brilliant design! Beneath the fins on the rear quarter panels are four horizontal chrome spears with a white painted background that brings the white from the roof down onto the body for a beautiful accent. Originally there would have been Oldsmobile crest badges ahead of this section but they have been removed. Bringing the whole side-view of the car together into perfect harmony is a set of gleaming chrome wire wheels with faux knock-off center caps all wrapped in Silvertown wide white-wall radial tires. Stunning design work continues at the rear of the car where youll find an oversized continental kit with another gigantic chrome bumper (with extensions!) surrounding the base. The spare is encased in a red and chrome cover with a release bar behind it that allows access to the trunk. Like the rest of the car, the trunk lid has been completely de-badged for a clean, slick look. Peeking out from under the corners of the bumper are a set of chrome Magnaflow exhaust tips that emit a fantastic rumble. Under the big hood is a very tidy and presentable engine bay illuminated by a courtesy light. At the center is a gold-painted 350ci Chevrolet V-8 dressed to look like an Olds Rocket engine with Oldsmobile Rocket decals on the gold valve covers and on the black Oldsmobile bat-wing air cleaner. The 350 is topped off with stock heads and an intake manifold with an Edelbrock 1406 600cfm 4-barrel carburetor. The fuel pump has been upgraded to an electric unit and the ignition has been upgraded to HEI. Other highlights under the hood include power steering, power brakes (drums on all 4 corners), a newer radiator, and a Sanden compressor that powers the working Vintage Air system. Exhaust flows from cast manifolds through glass pack-style mufflers to exit the rear with a heavenly sound. The 350 V-8 is mated up to a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission (with an external cooler) that puts power to the pavement via a GM limited-slip rear axle.
