1947 Oldsmobile Model 66 Wagon Automatic 4-Door Wagon

Description for Oldsmobile Model 66 Wagon 1947

This rare, highly desirable, "Woody”, is one of a kind - sporting classic looks and tons of power. The car was bought at auction in 2002 and built into a running chassis. In May of 2012 the Oldsmobile switched owners and received a full restoration which was completed in 2013. It was sold after its restoration and it has been extremely well maintained and garage kept since (driven less than 150 miles). All doors and windows function properly. All of the wood is in great condition for its age and the body and paint look new. It is definitely an award winning show car. This '47 Oldsmobile Woody features the iconic classic look of the old woody wagons with plenty of power under the hood. The engine is a 371 Cl Oldsmobile Rocket engine with forged pistons, strapped mains, stainless valves, titanium retainers, hardened valve seats, roller rockers, double roller timing chain, 2 Edelbrock 4bbs on a Hampton blower running at a 5lb boost, MSD Ignition, 8:25:1 static compression. It has been dyno'd at over 500HP! The engine was manufactured by Tony Lombardi of Ross' Racing Engines in Niles, OH in 2004. The engine is paired to a hydromatic transmission. The front brakes have been upgraded to 1949 Oldsmobile brakes because they are larger and work better. The electrical has been reworked for 12V. The driving lights and dome light inside the car are wired up and working. The spot light is just a dummy spotlight and is not hooked up. All gauges (minus the original temperature gauge - just needs to be switched from 6V to 12V) are functional. An aftermarket temperature gauge has been installed under the dash temporarily but can be removed. All documentation from the build is included with the car, including numerous part invoices, photos and other history about the car. The car also includes a full size, matching spare tire
