Book Description
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 60. Chapters: Oldsmobile 88, Oldsmobile 442, Oldsmobile Cutlass, Oldsmobile Toronado, Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, Oldsmobile 98, Oldsmobile Silhouette, Oldsmobile Aurora, Oldsmobile Starfire, Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser, Oldsmobile Hurst/Olds, Oldsmobile Bravada, Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser, Oldsmobile Alero, Oldsmobile Jetstar I, Oldsmobile Intrigue, Oldsmobile Achieva, Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais, Oldsmobile Firenza, Oldsmobile Omega, Oldsmobile Curved Dash, Oldsmobile Touring Sedan, Oldsmobile Series 60, Viking, Oldsmobile Series 70, Oldsmobile Cruiser. Excerpt: The Oldsmobile 88 (a.k.a. Eighty-Eight) was a full-size car sold by the Oldsmobile division of General Motors and produced from 1949 until 1999. From 1950 to 1974 the 88 was the division's top-selling line, particularly the entry-level models such as the 88 and Dynamic 88. The 88 series was also an image leader for Oldsmobile, particularly in the early years (1949-51) when it was one of the best performing automobiles thanks to its relatively small size, light weight and advanced overhead-valve high-compression V8 engine originally designed for the larger and more luxurious 98 series but dropped into the smaller six-cylinder Oldsmobile 76 body, creating what was considered the predecessor of musclecars of the 1960s. A large number of variations in nomenclature were seen over this long model run-Delmont, Delta, Dynamic, Jetstar, Starfire, Super, Holiday, L/S, LSS, Celebrity, and Royale were used at various times with the 88 badge, and Fiesta appeared on some station wagons in the 1950s and 1960s. The name was more commonly shown as numbers in the earlier years ("Delta 88," for example) and was changed to spell-out "Eighty Eight" starting in 1989. The Oldsmobile Eighty Eight was produced in Wentzville, Missouri; Flint, Michigan; and Lake Orion, ...

Book Description
Oldsmobile had long been GM's experimental division, pioneering new engineering and design ideas before they spread to other GM marques. Major ideas pioneered by Olds included the first GM semi-automatic transmission in 1937 and Hydra-matic automatic transmission in 1940. Yet Olds still seemed stodgy in the late forties compared to glamorous sibling Buick, which led Olds in sales. All that changed in 1949 when Olds introduced the first modern high-compression overhead valve engines (with Cadillac), the Rocket V8. Sales boomed in the fifties, helped by dazzling new styling and the industry's first panoramic windshields. All of the great looking Oldsmobiles of this exciting time are presented here in sharp detail with high quality photos from the National Automotive History Collection. Here are the revolutionary first hardtops, and later the first four-door hardtops, Starfires, Fiestas, and concept cars. Here, too, are the less fortunate 1957 and 1958 models, when bad styling decisions caused sales to fall. Oldsmobile would recover and go on to again lead the industry in sales in later years, only to perish for good in the new millennium. Superb photos are tied together with authoritative and informative captions, telling the story of Olds in these nostalgic years.
