Finally.. photos of both F85's

Took both cars to a local high school charity car show.. very small with only 20 or so cars... was fun. No other oldsmobiles there. Was having fun taking pictures.. thought I would share..

Nice pictures, those two cars belong together

OK, I admit I saw your ad offering the 4 door for sale. But I still think its way cool to have matching 2 and 4 door cars. John

Man, that is a cool setup! What you really need my 65 F-85 flattop wagon in the middle of those. Only problem is mine is red and would clash with your color matched cars! Nice pics of two very nice cars!

I wish I was ready for the wagon... only reason I am selling the four door is I need the cash to buy a second home.. trying to take advantage of the low prices right now.

Thats cool, I just thought I would let you know about it before I put it out in the open market since you obviously like 65's and it would be a great trio! My wagon needs restored but it runs and drives and has a 330/auto, ps, pb, and A/C that still kicks in and runs! Like I said before, the car is original red and would probably just clash with yours anyway! This car has almost zero rust as well as having all trim in good shape and the 4 original wire hubcaps! These are the biggest reasons I bought it. Good luck with the sale of your car and the purchase of your new house!

I like the stance of the 2 door. What is the suspension/wheel/tire set up on that car? I can see the rear bumper is a bit higher than the 4 door.
Thanks--

What's that color ? still thinking about what color to paint my 65. White again is 1st choice, My wife had me convinced these look better in a darker color till I saw yours.

Boy when I saw that on craigslist while in Az. I sure thought about driving it back to Washington state. Glad its being saved ! Sent a 69 Impala SS 427 to the crusher back when nobody wanted big cars. Still sad to think about.
