    I just bought my latest project, a 1963 Oldsmobile 98. I wouldn't normally mess with a four door but this car is exceptionally clean and rust free. However the previous owner took the engine apart to rebuild and started getting everything back together when the project seemed to have lost momentum. That's where I came along. Everything seems to be there for the most part except for the oil pan. Im having a hard time locating one, I've looked pretty good on the internet. Its a 1963 394 Sky Rocket. What other cars use this same pan maybe so I can broaden my search? This is the last piece of the puzzle. Thanks for the help!

    I poked around the internet for a few minutes and did'nt find any. You will have to dig deeper.
    Actually, I'd go back to the guy and ask him if you could hunt around his place for it. It is not a small object and should be easy to find.

    Yeah I believe this might be the best option. Maybe I can get lucky

    Yorgatron used to be the resident HAMB expert on Olds but sadly he's no longer with us. I'll ask my son as he has a 55 Olds as his daily and spends a lot of time on Olds forums. He may have a lead for you so stay tuned.
     
  5. Contact @GOATROPER02 on here a private message will work.

    He will not only know what you want but probably have one in his stock of oldsmobile stuff. He is also a good source for new parts if you need them.

    '61-'64 394 should be the same,
    '59-'60 will have the dip stick on the opposite side
    and '58 and earlier will also be about 1/4" shorter
