6T-FinSeeker Posted May 16, 2020 Author Share Posted May 16, 2020 Last photo: But no pictures of interior, under hood or inside trunk... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudsy Wudsy Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Nice car, but maybe not the best color combination. There was a time when those hub caps had quite high value on the "secondary market". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6T-FinSeeker Posted May 20, 2020 Author Share Posted May 20, 2020 On 5/18, Seller posted pictures of the interior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_S_in_Penna Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 The additional pictures show an interior that has been redone unauthentically. That reduces the value of the car by thousands. That "flat-top" styling certainly is distinctive, though, and those taillights are interestingly unusual. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_S_in_Penna Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Because of the incorrect interior and thus the too-high asking price, one could call about this car 6 months later and likely find it still for sale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6T-FinSeeker Posted June 23, 2020 Author Share Posted June 23, 2020 (edited) This car is headed to auction with GAA Classic Cars Auction in Greensboro, NC on July 23, 2020 GAA-Classic-Cars-Auction-1960-Oldsmobile-98-Holiday To be continued...

John_S_in_Penna Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Wow, Fin-Seeker, you really have your hand on the pulse of the market! The auction listing shows no pictures of the incorrect interior. I hope it's an in-person auction, because anyone bidding without seeing the car is going to be disappointed (or deceived) by thousands of dollars!
