This Holiday 98 has all surviving original factory equipment and materials aside from the newer paint, ignition parts, and a few clamps under the hood. The key reminder and safety buzzer still works. Rubbers are excellent. Trunk features original White-Wall Spare Tire with Jack Kit.
All fluids are fresh and it has been tuned-up mechanically. It is the nicest riding original high-end Oldsmobile I have ever experienced. (I wish I had more space to keep it and enjoy it longer.) The overall condition of the car is excellent. Everything is clean and well-maintained without molestation- Appropriate patina for a 61 year-old survivor. All glass is clear/excellent condition and there is no rust in the body and chassis (still has the factory undercoating). Vacuum wipers work slow. Heater valve has been bypassed. This Holiday 98 really only needs a new home- Or take it to concourse level and win first place every time.
