Pat Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Just wondering on this white Dynamic 88 conv on ebay this weekend. Supposedly 29000 original without restoration. I've had 3 88s and all had a two tone vinyl interior. Red and blue were not solid color like this one. Also, I would think power windows were possible but have NEVER seen them on a Dynamic in any junkyard or even at a Nationals. Does this car seem possible? Just asking.

rocketraider Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Post a link. I can't find a 29k mile 88. only a 29k mile Starfire.Power windows were available even on Jetstar 88s. I'd have to see the interior to make a call on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Posted September 15, 2007 Author Share Posted September 15, 2007 I don't know how to link but if you go to ebay motors and type 1964 Oldsmobile, I get cars and parts and it should be within a couple pages. The ad has a link but does not have real closeups. I can see 4 window switches on the driver door panel but again, I've only seen Starfire console and 98 recessed door buttons.

Oldsfan Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 He's talking about this one:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1964-OLDS...1QQcmdZViewItemLooks kosher to me. In addition to the power windows, it's also got a/c. Somebody must have wanted a little more than a base 88, but couldn't afford (or didn't want to spend the money for) a Starfire or 98. The rear antenna is not power, that's where they put the standard antennas when they came with a/c, althought this one has been replaced with a hokie spring antenna. Also has the upgraded wheelcovers. I don't have my upholstery book in front of me, but I'm pretty sure these interiors were all red, not red/maroon.I don't think the top boot is original. I thought the boot color should match the interior.I was talking to a guy at Nationals who bought a '64 D88 convertible used in 1969. It was fully equipped - even had the rare power door locks. You could put just about anything you wanted on a D88, 'cept for the Starfire engine, I think.Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Posted September 15, 2007 Author Share Posted September 15, 2007 The pattern is correct with mine. I don't remember seeing any with what looks like a solid color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldsfan Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 OK, now I've got my upholstery book in front of me. The Dynamic 88 convertible came with six interior choices:Saddle - single toneBlackJade (dark) Green - single toneBlue - two toneHoliday (bright) Red - single toneParchment White - single toneIt says right in there that the convertible boot should be Holiday Red as well.Holiday Coupes & Sedans used the same interior. Morocceen and Pattern Cloth were available in Platinum, Fern Green, Blue, Aqua and Saddle. All Morocceen was an option and available in Jade Green, Blue (two tone), Regal Red (two tone) and Parchment White. Both shades used with Regal Red were darker than Holiday Red and had a metallic cast to them.I also double checked my earlier statement - the Starfire engine was an option is any 98 or Super 88, but was not available in Dynamic 88s.Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
