1960 Olds "98" Convertible
I'm a new member of the post. I own an all original never restored '60 Olds "98" convertible in white with tri-tone red interior. I have never seen another one at a show. I have shown the car for the past 14 years and have won best original many many times. Just wondering if anyone else has one. I would post a photo but I have no idea how to do that.

Don't have a convertible, but a two door hard-top. They are pretty uncommon...I could count the number of '60 Oldsmobiles I've seen in this area on one hand. Never had mine to a show...someday. It's pretty close but not quite there. I'd love to see some pics of your car too!

Beautiful car! I hope my car could be half as nice as that one someday! You definitely have a head turner.

Thank you Robert!
Thanks so much for posting the photos of my car. Others are asking to hear more about it. Well, believe it or not, it's an original car; no repaints; no re-chromes. I detailed under the hood about eight years ago to exacting specifications. If you look real close at the photos with the top up, you can see the Canadian plates in the back ground. That's because it has been driven to Quebec City Canada three times. That's a 9 hour trip one way from where I live in Auburn, New Hampshire. The car is ultra dependable!
I added the Foxcraft skirts with stainless scuff shields and the underdash Olds vacuum gauge as I always like to drive with a vacuum gauge. I have owned the car for 14 years so it's getting to the point when I am going to part with it, but as you can imagine, it won't be cheap! Thanks again! Dennis Vieira |

Hey there, I have a 1960 Olds 98 convertible, it is pretty much all original, engine was rebuilt some years back, I have to replace the floor pans, the interior is tri-tone tan and is quite dirty and worn, the back plastic window is missing from the top but the rest of the top is perfect, but the car is in great shape and is so beautiful. It was used as a daily driver for quite some time. I even have the receipts and dealer paperwork from when it was bought April 20, 1960. And I, as you said, also have not seen another one. I replied before looking at your pictures, so I'm going to do that after this, I dont have a very good picture of mine but I'll post one anyway. well just saw that you wanted to see if someone else has one and I do haha.
thanks http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n...obile001-1.jpg |
