Seller's comments about 1954' Oldsmobile Super 88

Rare opportunity to purchase a 1954 Oldsmobile Super 88 Cabriolet from a classic car collection. Only 5,790 units were built, perhaps 120 units still exist today! This family cruiser in a "mild custom look" is equipped with a 324 cui Rocket engine (5.3 L V8) and a 4-speed "Hydramatic Super Drive" automatic transmission. The manufacturer General Motors installed the same reliable technology as in the top models from Cadillac, with the difference that Oldsmobile models were a little more lively to drive. It was no coincidence that they advertised with advertising slogans such as "More Horsepower per dollar than any other new car" or "Hydra-Matic Drive - No gears to shift... no clutch to press!" And advances in technology were also illustrated in advertisements and power through rocket projectiles. The rocket-shaped taillights and the panoramic window design are visually striking and therefore also distinctive for this design period. The new price for this classic? At the time this was an incredible USD 5,290. Contrary to the very striking paintwork, the "two tone" interior in vinyl tuck'n'roll style, the white electric. The hood and the wide whitewall tires again add a very harmonious touch and thus ensure an unbeatable contrast. By the way, the hubcaps come from an Oldsmobile Fiesta from 1956. It should also be mentioned. In general, this is an older restoration in very good and well-maintained condition with few signs of wear. The only thing that doesn't work is the original radio and speedometer. Currently German papers (H license plate) and TÜV. Assistance with an Austrian individual permit can be provided, but is not included in the purchase price. There is also a spare wheel in the trunk, instructions for use (shop manual), Alpine radio (USB) installed in the glove compartment including a subwoofer under the seat and invoice receipts from the latter repairs.
