1958 Oldsmobile Convertible - Not Mine

[Taylormade]

Not for the faint of heart - especially at 25 grand.  I would love to have a restored or original one of these.  Lots of parts cars in the pix and I guess they come with.

Well, judging by all of the other '58 Oldsmobiles in the background, it's being sold by someone who clearly knows '58 Oldsmobiles. If he can't turn it into something, what are the chances we can?

Rusty girl.  That is just the top side.  What lurks below?

For those interested the subject car is located in St Louis, MO.

That 98 convertible will cost a fortune to restore today. BTW the Starfire model designation was dropped after 1957. The seller states the convertible is rusty and the parts cars in the background don't look so hot either. The seller is obviously knowledgeable enough about 1958 GM convertibles not to attempt this restoration himself and pass this expensive project on to someone else so they can foot the bill for its restoration.

Who ever knew that rust was this valuable?

Add barn dust and it will cost a mint.
