restored in the mid 1980s. Still in lovely condition but still a couple of rust removal on the trunck floor and some chassis welding to tidy up.

This is my third Oldsmobile.
First there was a 1936 Sedan bought in 1967, then 2 years latter a 1938 sedan and now in 2014 this old beauty.

the original Olds tail lights were not replaced at the time of restoration, instead the owner fitted tail lights from a 1937 or 38 Olds - I think.

The leather interior was replaced with this Bed-ford Cord cloth upholstery. It looks great.

Under the hood.
Converted to 12v and the generator was replaced with an alternator.
