I am not sure if the Oldsmobile History Center can help with this, they charge too. Any fullsize Olds from 64-66 (only years available 4spd) is extremely rare and only a few were produced. Few survive and you may not ever see another. Seems there are more Sfires and Jetstar I's that were ordered with the 4 on the floor.

That's pretty cool that you have some original documentation like that.

The Olds History Center that Oldsmaniac refers to no longer exists. Reference materials were sent to the then newly-formed GM Heritage Center in Sterling Heights, Michigan in 2003.

http://www.gmheritagecenter.com/

Exhibit materials from the Olds History Center were donated to the R. E. Olds Transportation Museum in Lansing at the same time.

The GMHC will send you info about your car if you order it, but it will cost something like $50, and what they send you won't answer your question about how many had a certain transmission as production records with detail down to that level were not saved for Oldsmobiles from this era. We can tell you how many '64 Jestar 88s of the various body styles were made as well as original base prices, and some stats like wheelbase, weight, and so forth, but that's about it.

Welcome to CO. Regardless if you ever find out the information you are looking for, that Jetstar is still a rare breed.
