High end, body off frame custom build. I drove this car home last night and I’ve just given it a complete inspection. I suggest you watch the video, I could write a book about how amazing this car is. Fit, finish and function all score a 10!
EXTERIOR: The ’50 Olds bubble coupe is a very handsome car that lends well to becoming a hot rod. The low slung grill and a set of fat wheels under those bulging rear fenders make a great look. This can’t be red paint, it must be red glass because that is what it looks like. The body work is phenomenal. It’s laser straight from every angle. The panels are precision fit. The hood and lid have had their trim removed and filled for a clean look. The jambs are painted slick. Inside the fuel door is a billet filler plate. Every piece of stainless was professionally polished and straightened. The chrome was show plated. The glass is all new. Every rubber gasket and weatherstrip is new. Great looking Boyd Coddington wheels- 17s in front 18s in back, extra wide in back. It has Goodyear F1 performance tires.
INTERIOR: Custom interior by Gabe. I’m sitting in the car right now and I can’t stress enough the quality and attention to detail. It has leather upholstery on the comfortable bucket seats and rear seat with armrest. Very tastefully done custom made side panels including the kick panels. The headliner is very cool with the Oldsmobile planet with rings symbol embossed into it. It also has a wrinkled leather pattern in the middle with dome light and matching visors. The center console is custom made and upholstered to match. It features a very unique armrest. The Alpine stereo sounds great, it has 10 speakers and an amp in the trunk. The interior metal is painted as smooth and glossy as the outside. It has a very clean dash. The wiper knob and a 12 volt receptacle are mounted below the dash. There is a matched set of VDO gauges including a Quartz clock in the factory location. There is a matched tachometer on the console. The ratchet shifter has a custom made wood bezel and Von Dutch ball. The tilt column is a brushed aluminum with a Budnick custom wheel. Features include cruise control, power windows, reclining seats, 3 point retractable seatbelts and cold a/c. There are nice custom vents in the dash, under the dash, hidden behind the speaker grill and even at the rear of the console. It has premium carpet with matching floormats with bound edges. Something else impressed me- everything fits so nice. There are no loose parts, no corners popping up. It was done right.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Clean, tasteful show quality. It has a very reliable, very powerful 5.7 LS6 Corvette motor. Runs smooth as can be and I assure you that it will put you back in the seat if you punch it! It has a set of headers, billet pulleys and a polished air intake tube. A big aluminum radiator with electric fan and a polished overflow keeps it cool. It has Vintage Air heat and a/c system. Modern power steering with remote polished reservoir. Stainless braided hoses, dipstick, throttle controls. The engine bay is all smoothed out metal, it has custom made filler panels. It is all painted glass finish red, latches are chrome.

This is an 100% self made car with a 50 years old body. Most of your cars will NEVER get a street license for German streets. Why Americans can not
prepare a historical car, so the owner in Germany can get a license for a "historisches Fahrzeug im Originalzustand!" and can drive for EZR 176,00 per year?
Kick-Ass 50 OLDS ROCKET 88 !
These were the cars we rode in as children.
Ours was black. Probably not so shiny.
STUNNING BEAUTIFUL, COLD AIR INTAKE , SO CLEAN ,
