There are some minor blemishes to be foun, the cloth front seat is showing wear and the engine bay could use some light refreshing, but otherwise this true survivor is perfect for most collectors just the way she sits today.

Additionally, this 1951 Oldsmobile Super 88 Holiday starts up nicely and everything works properly, The Rocket V-8 engine in particular sounds great and the transmission shifts as smoothly as it did when it left the factory in 1951.

You just don’t find many of these examples anymore in this type of condition- it’s an amazing, beautiful find that any collector would instantly appreciate.
