1964 Olds Jetstar 88 Factory 4sp on floor
Hi I have a 1964 Olds Jetstar 88 with a factory installed original 4 speed on the floor. My dad was the original owner. The car is in very good condition, needs a little tlc (seats, upholstery) I was wondering if anyone has heard/seen of any other 4 speeds, I believe it is very rare, and what is it worth? Thanks

I am aware of a red '64 4 speed coupe with a white painted top and white interior, sold last year I think out of PA, and also I know a local guy with a 4 speed J88 4 door (cannot recall if it was a hardtop or not, haven't seen it in a couple years). I also recall a guy some years back who had parted out a '64 J88 convertible; I bought the swing pedals and z-bar from that car off Ebay, but later sold them. Trans was for sale too, weird looking thing as i recall.

True, but the list I was reading from also included the Jetstar I, which had a 394 and didn't have a 4-speed available.
Looking at the factory specs, it's interesting to see a 4-barrel 330 wasn't available in anything other than the B-bodies.

The 1964 Product Selling Information manual explicitly shows the 290 horsepower 330 engine with 10.25 CR and 4-barrel carb was STANDARD in the Cutlass and OPTIONAL in the F85 Deluxe and Standard. The F85 Deluxe and Standard cars carried the 230 horsepower 9:1 2-barrel 330 as standard equipment except on the V6 Sports Coupe.
The 1964 CSM backs this up.
