Cruzr went Nuts...buys 50 olds 2dr

Thanks for the "kudos" guys. Can't wait to get her and take a nice drive

 

Thats really a beauty ! Congratulations. Can you post a photo of the horn ring center. Olds had some great ones in those years.

 

I've never seen a carb set up like this one has. I'd leave it just the way she is engine wise. Your going to get a lot of talk out of guys on this one. She's a beautiful car. Congrats.

 

So nice. THose 3 weeks of wait are going to seem very long. Makes for a great Xmas gift for yourself. Congratulations

 

It will hopefully be my 70 th B day present early Dec

 

What a beauty, it looks like brand new, great score!

 

That ride screams CLASS!!! Congrats on the score.

 

BITCHIN! I love those vintage Old's!!!

 

Great find. If you want to save on shipping I'll be glad to drive it out to you. Just let me know. I get my license back next week.

 

Thats awesome! Way too clean to cut up in any way.

 

heres the only pic i have of horn center

 

Enjoy the heck out of it. Good score, what a great birthday present!

 

Nice score Randy, one of my favorite cars.

 

That is the #1 reason I like those years.....I have a thing for the olds "world".

 

Cruzr,
It looks perfect, that should take you back to your youth! I had a 49 fastback as a kid, probably the most fun car I have owned, got a 50 88 coupe now. Along with the dual carbs, you could add some 52 rocker arms and 3 spark plug washers behind the governor plug in the Hydro, that will wake it up! Congrats on finding a "cream puff".

 

Damn nice car. Half the fun in finding a car is the search .... the second half is coming! ... enjoy.

 

In a word....SWEET!

 

garsh damnit that is a sweet ride. Congrats Cruzr.

 

I am very jealous! good for you

 

Niiiice! Looks super good.

Back in my high school days in the 50s, one fellow had a green 50
fastback with flipper caps. Kept it spotless and his wingtip oxfords
were always shined.

 

Thanks again for all the great comments.


Marty ...i pm'd you for some further advice on the tranny thing

 

congrats!! thats a very nice car. ya done good

 

Congrats on the "new" ride. I've got a suspicion that you and your lady friend will be spending a lot of miles in this one. Don't be surprised if she adds a tissue dispenser and a cup holder

I have known Randy for 5 years and he has been looking at 50 Olds almost every day . I am so happy for him.

 

a 50 coupe has always been on top of my bucket list
enjoy the shit out of it

 

Sweet! Sold my 50 tudor to a guy from NEW YORK CITY.

 

Wow. Beautiful

 

Thanks again for all the comments guys, now it's a waiting game untill she arrives

 

Mostly partial to late 50's early 60's Rockets, but who can deny the coolness of these. Of course I would want one in my collection, if time and money were no object. Nice find.!!! Perfect candidate for a true 50's cruiser.

BTW...here are a few Olds groups on the H.A.M.B.
