4702-TPA 1969 OLDSMOBILE 98 CONVERTIBLE
This 1969 Oldsmobile 98 Convertible, one of fewer than 4,300 produced that year, represents the pinnacle of Oldsmobile's luxury offerings. Its Burgundy Mist exterior, a nod to its original paint code, drapes over one of the largest bodies ever crafted by Oldsmobile. The white power convertible top provides a striking contrast, while the front and rear chrome bumpers, despite showing signs of age, still exude classic American opulence. Rolling on .....
15-inch wheels wrapped in 225/75R15 tires, this Olds 98 maintains its commanding road presence. A power antenna on the driver's side fender adds a touch of period convenience to this rare full-size convertible.
Inside, the Parchment vinyl interior offers a spacious retreat. The dash, in great condition, houses the original AM/FM radio and is complemented by aftermarket gauges discreetly mounted below, monitoring engine vitals. Both driver and passenger enjoy the luxury of power seats, a high-end feature for its time. The tilt steering column and gauge cluster appear to be original, preserving the authentic feel of this late '60s cruiser. Adding to the comfort, the R134a-converted air conditioning system keeps occupants cool in modern comfort. Despite its age, the cabin maintains a remarkably well-preserved ambiance, showcasing the quality materials used in Oldsmobile's top-tier models.
Under the expansive hood lies a muscular 455 cubic inch V8 engine, fed by a 4-barrel Quadrajet carburetor. This powerplant pairs with a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission, delivering smooth, effortless cruising characteristic of luxury cars from this era. The engine bay features a standard belt-driven cooling fan and radiator, ensuring reliable performance. Power steering and brakes make maneuvering this full-size convertible a breeze. The dual exhaust system with Pypes mufflers provides a subtle reminder of the power at the driver's disposal.
