Another model for that year. Do a google search, lots of hits.
Like for my '55 Olds, there was a 88 and super 88.

Jetstar 88s were the entry level 88 model. They used smaller engines than the Super 88s or Delta 88s, and maybe different transmissions. I believe they also used lighter duty suspension and brake components. Jetstar 88s were made from '64 thru '66. They were replaced by the Delmont in '67.
