The sickness flareed up again yesterday...

My old car buying sickness flared up again yesterday , I bought this 1952 Oldsmobile Rocket 88 more-door , this car has 58,773 actual miles , decent body with some cancer down low , runs and drives like a dream w/ a 303 rocket engine & a 3 speed ****** , I need a master cylinder for this car , anyone have one lying around?....I was told by my dad that this sickness just keeps flareing up from time to time , no cure for it , but , at least my wife doesn't mind this affliction....hell, sometimes she incourages it...lol

 

looks like a prety good buy, as long as the price is right i would'nt call it a sickness

 

I feel like it was the right price , I bought it for $700.00....

 

Get a paint job on it and you'll be stylin'...

 

nice score

 

nice. i'd have two at that price

 

Yea , me too , but , there was only one.

 

Great buy. Heres a picture of mine for some inspiration.

 

Man , that thing is ***y , you don't have a extra master cylinder lying around , do ya?

 

****** good score.
your a lucky boy.

 

Sorry just the one on the car. I got mine with only 70k miles, hadn't been run since 74. Sat under a tree hidden from site less than a quarter mile from my house.

 

Sweet pick up. The price was right for sure. That is gonna be one sweet daily driver. I am now officially jealous my friend.

 

****** good score is correct-a-mundo! That is a sweet starter, that body is really sweet in a "no-waiting" more door configuration, an awesome cruzer. Congrats and best of luck with the ride. ~sololobo~

 

I hate this sickness , that **** happens to me all the time!

 

thats a good score , low miles and a cool road boat , enjoy it

 

Well, got some paint on her today , found some old oldsmobile caps lying around till I can find something better , I have some wheels and hubcaps off of my Fleetline , mabye I can use them on this Olds...

 

I think its a monthly thing for you......
.......considering all the cars I see you get

 

wow you don't muck around do you? looks good

 

very nice wish i could find soemthing that good at that price

 

Those Olds' are beauties! I have always loved those headlights. The price was definitely right!

 

Nice score man, that things looking good.

 

Can't beat that, good find. Is the motor rebuilt?

 

Nah man , all miles ae actual , even say so on the ***le....

 

Lw budget , I guess ya gotta strike while the iron is hot , but , yea , it seems like there has been a few p*** thru here lately... Fuzzybear , No need to muck around , I'm tryin' to flip this car for a profit to finance my '57 Chevy wagon project...interested?

 

hey if your butgets low, mines non existent. i'd love a car like that but i'm struggling to buy bits for my current project

 

Buff up the stainless it will make a worls of defference. The grill is stainless also, it'll buff out nice.

 

For a master cylinder or other Olds stuff, try Fusick. They are good guys, prices a little steep but the service is great.
