1973 Ninety-Eight with 6,700 miles

Somebody needs to go buy this car. I would, if I had the money and the space.

Wow, it truly looks like a new car. It's like a time warp!

Nice that it is a 2-door. Interesting it does not have power windows. Wonder if it was special order.

That's a nice looking Oldsmobile. It would look good in Sandy's driveway. She's not too far from Akron, OH. It could keep 'The Prettiest One' company.

I noticed that, too. No power locks nor remote-controlled mirror, either. It's interesting how, back in those days, even the top-of-the-line model could still be ordered in a pretty much stripped down version.

I doubt it was a "special order" in the sense that there were no special orders. There were just cars you bought off the lot or cars you ordered with the specific options you wanted. This particular one was, I would guess, ordered specifically without many options as I'm guessing most of these did come with power windows, etc. After all, it's a 98!
