My local machine shop did not want to tackle my 1921 Olds V8. Hart’s was happy to take it on with it’s crazy split block, two main bearing design and fork and blade rods.
What a crazy engine design.

Has anyone tried to turn over the engine?
Yes, I did.... Definitely locked up. Here's the thing. If you are rebuilding an engine like this, and need a connecting rod,
or any unusual hardware, maybe the crank, or cam,, and I'm sure several misc. parts, this engine is well worth the money.
I've rebuilt hundreds of engines. My specialty is unusual engines. I have 2 1936 Chrysler Airstreams. This car had a one model year engine only. The spare engines I picked up were worth there weight in gold.
See the engine I just finished:
-
I show the olds engine at the end of this video...
There is only a few engine left at this stage.....
-
$200 Plus actual shipping cost. $250 if you want the transmission...
Unfortunately its not going to be cheap to ship this......
If you want to stop by and pick it up, we will find a way to load it.

Are you interested in buying this engine? I would gladly make you a very sweet deal...
We can separate it into parts, and ship it to you?
-
Definitely need completely rebuilt. IT sat out side for a time. IF you already have an engine like this is a great deal for a parts engine. We will take any reasonable offer. We just don't want to see it go to the scrap yard. Located in Pgh. PA area.
Where are you? We can help load it!

NOS parts are great EXCEPT for seals! Modern seals are the only way to go. Beautiful car!
I completely agree.... I'm just figuring out seals for another project right now. Its not easy.
Anyone have a list of updated seals for the 36 Chrysler Airstream?

Hey Joe,
Where have you been? I hope all is well......
Anything new with the Chrysler?

Thanks for your inputs here... I've decided that it might be easiest to steal the clips from outcast rims. I actually started paying attentions to every rim I see for these clips, and they are more prevalent than I had thought.

Ok, I'm working on a special project where I want to use a hubcap on a wheel that it did not
originally come on.. So, I have to add the clips. Does anyone know where I can buy the clips in the attached picture?

"vintage car, vintage part, vintage collection, vintage estate"
In my opinion these terms are useless and are there to make the seller look like they have something to say. All I really get out of the use of this word is "old" . The word "restored" is driving me nuts these days. People using this terms completely out of place in sales adds today.... Restored..... go look at it , and some idiot stuffed a chevy v8 in it!.....

Fresh out of the barn, Olds 98 1955 4DR SDN
No motor, no transmission in the car, but we are fairly sure we have them.
They will need a completely rebuild. Interior was eaten by raccoons.
Doors, trunk, close like new. Keys are in ignition. Title in hand. Roller.
Car is very complete, jack, several spare rims, trunk wheel well is intact, all glass is usable.
Located in PGH. PA. looking for reasonable offers.
-
I have a few spare I'll sell you really cheap.
They definitely will need rebuilt. Great for parts.
ERIC

I've got a 55 Olds 98, that would make a great parts car, to complete this one.
I also have an early motor and trans. that likely is likely correct for the car...

Fresh out of the barn....Literally
1955 Olds 98 4DR SDN
No motor or Trans.
Raccoons ate the interior
Other than the above , a very complete car. Even has keys in the ignition.
Title in hand, Its a roller, located in PGh. PA
Update: We spent some time clean up big stuff.. We were surprised the trunk spare tire well is still there.... Floors looks good, so far. We did not put it up on a lift but from what we can see on the ground the frame looks good. All the doors close like new. the trunk latch works smooth.
This is going to be a driver, if not more, for someone... My bet is the first person to come look at this is going to buy it...

Hi All,
By way of a quick update, the new exhaust collector I had made arrived yesterday! I am going to sand blast it today, clean it up, paint it, and put it on! I will repair the original part again and put it on the shelf as a spare. I am a bit worried that with all the heat cycles, the cast iron is as brittle as can be, so the original part may never be installed again.
Joe
While! That took some work... So, what about the heat riser valve?
By the way, how's the body work coming along?
