1950 Oldsmobile Series 88 Futuramic

Description for Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight 1950

This green 1950 Olds 88 2 door sedan is an impressive car from a fussy owner. It is in excellent condition inside and out. The term "muscle car" would not be applied to cars until the mid 1960's but it should have been used on the 1949 and 1950 Oldsmobile "Rocket" 88's. These cars used the new Kettering concept OHV V8 short-stroke high performance engines in a smaller lighter body and they were correctly labeled "Rockets"! However, while these cars were good sellers, the Futuramic were built in only limited quantities. This 1950 Olds "Rocket" 88 4-doors rocket 88 features a 303 cubic inch, 135 horsepower, OHV V8 and 4-speed "Hydro" automatic transmission. Very rare indeed, today!

The body is laser straight and the chrome and stainless shines. It is a beautiful car with solid floors, frame and trunk. The gray interior is immaculate. As with any car this age, there are a couple of issues. The gas gauge doesn’t work and the passenger window is cracked. Otherwise, it is a car you take to your next car show and be proud to own.

Avideois available upon request. An inspection can be arranged by appointment only. If the car needs to be shipped, we will ensure the car is available for the transporter's schedule. Reasonable offers will be considered. If you have questions or want to discuss the car, contact Randy at 612-619-2252.

I do marketing consignments for customers who don't have time to set up ads for their vehicle or don't use the internet. I charge a flat fee up front and do not collect any consignment fees when the vehicle sells. I am not a dealer. The vehicle remains in the owner's possession. I handle inquiries. When the potential buyer becomes serious, I put them in touch with the owner who can answer specific questions about the vehicle.

Note: This car is located in Grand Rapids MN.
