Yep, another newbie!

Howdy from a newbie out of Houston, Texas. Found this site and didn’t realize just how many great looking Oldsmobile’s were out there. I just recently purchased a 1968, 98 from a gentleman who did quite a bit of work on her. She has new paint and top with glass window along with new hydraulic cylinders, hoses and pump. Also new shocks, springs, battery and cables. Her tank was removed, cleaned and new fuel lines run. It has the original engine and transmission. He put her on 15” rims but did sent the original 14” with caps and she still has the protecto plate and owners manual. If I can figure out how to upload I’d like to send a couple of pictures to see what you think.
Thanks, Rex

That's one gorgeous Ninety-Eight! I had a Luxury Sedan that year.

Great to have another BIG Olds in CO!

Welcome....
