Description for Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight 19490000

ORIGINAL 1949 ROCKET 88- it has the 303 v8-the motor that won the first Nascar race. If you know what you're looking at you know it is a very rare historical car. In good shape, engine/transmission good. Interior recovered in similar cloth to 1949 style using all the original interior parts. no modern updates on the car at all. This car is still a 6 volt electrical system and and is stock in every way. You could call the car a survivor basically. It has been painted blue sometime in the 1980's when the interior was recovered. It has some things that need repaired such as; right now the fuel pump has a bad diaphram, the intake manifold has a crack filled with silicone sealant-BUT A HAVE A GOOD ORIGINAL intake that the car comes with, 2 of the passenger and a vent windown have some cracks and marks(I have pics available) and the car has no battery. the main windshield/back glass is all good. Chrome is pretty good-the front and rear main bumpers were rechromed i think in the 80's. It has been sitting for a year and will need to be trailered away. I have video of it running on Youtube taken before it went into storage a year or so ago. hasnt changed any since then. I have a LOT MORE pics available! underside, interior etc. I also have the original hubcaps with it.YOU CAN SEE THE CAR RUNNING ON YOUTUBE!!! look at the pic of the youtube page-has the web address in it. search rocket 88 1949 please ask all questions before bidding and I will get back right away. you can call me as well with questions. 507 202 5040-
