1955 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight Description

Hate to sell this one... have had it for while.Clear title.
2dr HT coupe.
It has been in dry storage for about 10 years and was last on the road around 10 years ago. It is an older restoration from probably the 90's so it does show it's age in many places. Power brakes and steering - autronic eye.
It is a bit dusty.I did drive it several times about 10 years ago and it drove nicely.
-car starts and runs briefly with gas down the carb... but the fuel tank needs to be drained.
The gas in it is very old and will not fire.
- solid frame
-chrome is very nice but some pitting in places.-gas tank has a leak - can't tell where exactly it is weeping from. It is a very very slow drip.
- some rust bubbles in places - some scuffs scratches and dings but overall straight.
Some splits and tears in upholstery.
-Tires are good but are old school white wall painted
-exhaust manifold crack on pass side but I have an NOS replacement manifold included with car.

Please note - I have never seen this car before it was painted... it was done long before I got it.It appears that there is filler in all the typical areas - bottom areas of the rear quarters / a little over the rear wheel openings. Some places in rockers and doglegs...and some places along bottom edges of doors. Some skim fill around fuel door that has some cracks. I can tell by running a magnet over these areas.
Buyer must pay a $1200 deposit within 24hrs.Rest of balance due in cash upon pick up.Car is located in zip 21773 Myersville MD. Will require a rollback as it is very difficult to back a trailer up to my storage garage.
