RARE AND DESIRABLE SUPER 88 CONVERTIBLE
1961 Oldsmobile Super 88, 2dr Convertible
Spectacular condition 1961 Oldsmobile Super 88 convertible. 34,019 original miles. Rare and desirable Super 88 convertible comes white power top to contrast the excellent red exterior paint. Car runs very well.
In a move to modernize its lineup, Oldsmobile introduced a completely new 88 in 1961. The full-size car was now 5.5 inches shorter, 3 inches lower, and nearly 4 inches narrower than its predecessor, while utilizing the same 123-inch wheelbase. Impressively, interior room was greater. Looks were all-new, with the wrap-around windshields being replaced by flatter glass with thinner A-pillars. A straight trim piece ran tangentially across the front and rear wheel arches, and a reverse fin accented the lower rear quarter panels.
Under the hood, the prior 371-cid V-8 was replaced by the 98 model's 394-cid unit, with power now ranging from 250 (on the Dynamic 88) to 325 hp (on the Super 88). The less powerful engine had a low compression ratio, a two-barrel Rochester carburetor, and single exhaust, while the more powerful version made use of a higher compression ratio, a four-barrel Rochester carburetor, and dual exhausts.
