Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1947 Oldsmobile Series 98 Custom Cruiser Convertible has been heavily modified with a Dodge SRT-10 V10 engine and modern amenities, presenting a unique blend of classic style and contemporary power. However, the sale is impacted by noted mechanical and electrical issues including a non-functional odometer, illuminated warning lights, and steering column play, suggesting it requires some attention.
Condition
7
The car has undergone a significant custom build, integrating modern V10 power and features into a classic body. While the custom components like the V10 engine, transmission, coilovers, disc brakes, and modern interior electronics (Pioneer touchscreen, Hertz speakers, digital instrumentation) are notable positives, the listing also indicates some significant issues. The digital odometer is non-functional, the check engine, parking brake, and washer fluid lights are illuminated, there is play in the steering column, and the steering wheel is not straight. These issues, while potentially fixable, detract from a perfect or near-perfect score and suggest the need for some reconditioning or repair.
