1947 Oldsmobile Series 66 360 Miles Black Coupe 455 V8 3 Speed Automatic

Description for Oldsmobile Series 66 1947

a legendary 455 backed by a rugged Turbo-Hydramatic 3-speed and dressed in opulent Jet Black paint this stunning Oldsmobile epitomizes understated American elegance. And if you're looking for a near-perfect cruiser that puts a new shine on old school ambition they simply don't get nicer! Approaching this beauty it's difficult not to be taken with its killer profile. Larger than your average street rod this sleek sedanette began life as an upper class commuter that was likely enjoyed ...by an upper middle class family. During a detailed body-off restoration the car's slant-back profile was stripped carefully sanded and bathed in a fresh layer of rich 2-stage. And that pigment was finished in a roster of stylish mods and tasteful factory trim. Under this custom's long hood you'll find 455 cubic inches of Rocket monster block that's poised to provide excellent motivation. Behind that torquey mill a proven Turbo-Hydramatic 400 3-speed twists power to a custom Fearless Gear nine that thanks to 31-spline axles is capable of handling 1000 horsepower. Beneath that drivetrain a completely rebuilt suspension employs a custom powder-coated rear-clip behind a Fat Man independent front-half which stacks chrome control arms on power rack-and-pinion steering. Those sturdy bones are augmented with adjustable air bags at all four corners. A traditional combination of disc and drum brakes provides quick drama-free stops. Torque transitions to pavement through chrome Coys wheels which spin 225/40ZR18 Nitto NT555 Extreme ZRs in front of 255/35ZR20 Nitto NT555 Extreme ZRs. And between the shaved doors you'll find a supple ultraleather cockpit that despite being custom looks as timeless as original factory fodder. Stylish and alluring this striking custom is a bellwether of street rod creativity. Why not step up to something different? Call click or visit for more information.
